Eh?

I don't know what people expect to gain by twisting on chat forums.

I asked some questions and got this, yes it has been cut and pasted and I don't care what anyone thinks, it is factual. Oh, and it's something positive for a change...

Who is the S&P partner for afgh energy AFC energy?

"AFC Energy has a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with an unnamed S&P 500 industrial partner. While the name of the company has not been publicly disclosed, AFC Energy has provided some details: Publicly listed: It is a publicly listed company and an established industrial player.

Significant player: It is described as an "industrial giant".

Strong financial and technical capabilities: The partner has strong financial capacity and a wealth of technical capability.

Aligned supply chain: It has an aligned supply chain with AFC Energy's business.

Focus on ammonia crackers: The partnership is specifically focused on developing a new line of ammonia crackers for hydrogen production. 

The anonymity of the partner is typical for such agreements, where sensitive commercial details may be involved.

The JDA was announced in June 2025 and is anticipated to start generating material revenue for AFC Energy from 2027 onward".

Meggiesdad - you asked.

AFC Energy plc was not a brand new company when it listed on the London Stock Exchange. It was admitted to the AIM market of the LSE on October 18, 2011, following a reverse acquisition of the existing shares of AFC Energy Limited.

At the time of its admission to AIM, AFC Energy plc had approximately 219.7 million ordinary shares in issue. The Admission Document provided details that the company had placed 33.3 million new ordinary shares as part of its AIM listing. These new shares were offered at 9 pence per share, raising £3.0 million for the company before expenses.

It's important to distinguish between the total number of shares in issue at the time of listing and the number of shares that were specifically issued as part of the listing process to raise new capital.

Constructivenews, we must be near neighbours, that's what my Auntie Monica from Pity Me used to call me, and still does, she's ninety, bless her!

All the best Marra, hoping to be a holder later today, finger's crossed.

I just checked before posting, I got some at 9.7465 and two trades later some sold at 9.700 Tight spread?

I'm still learning but to me that sounds positive.

Views anyone?

I was warned about coming over to LSE.

It is indeed the "Dark Side" and I wish I hadn't bothered.

Not a BOT but, as explained, I've started using AI as part of my research, everything I read is double checked and cross checked and a visit to Companies House is included prior to making a buying decision.

I've been a member of the ADVFN site since November 2000, so I've been posting 9 years longer than you. Now I'm asking myself, why am I telling you this - dunno really - I think I just wasted 5 minutes of my time.

It appears you only post on AFC, or at least that's where your 4 posts in the last 30 days have popped up.

And this last post of yours gives nothing of interest and the grammar is atrocious!

To ease your agitation let me tell you that I placed an order earlier today, I need a 0.01p tick down from the price it is as I post, for it to be filled. Meaning, just for you (let me explain) I like this stock and believe it will catch ITM and CWR in due course. Those two are too expensive for me right now but I do like the idea of an early entry below 10p on this one.

Finally, please make the appointment you very clearly need.

Cheers

Bill

Not advice, just what I'm reading when I ask certain questions

"No, AFC Energy Plc (AFC.L) is currently not making a profit and is not yet generating significant revenue.

As a clean energy technology developer, it is still in the phase of developing, commercializing, and manufacturing its fuel cell systems and ammonia cracking technology.

Here's a breakdown of AFC Energy's financial situation:

Pre-Profitability Stage: AFC Energy is investing heavily in R&D, manufacturing facilities, and commercial partnerships to bring its products to market. This is common for growth companies in the clean energy sector.

Negative Earnings:

The company reported a widened pretax loss of £10.1 million in its latest interim results for the six months ending June 30, 2025. This loss is primarily due to increased operating expenses as the company ramps up its development and commercialization activities.

Growing Revenue (but still low): While overall revenue is still low, the company's interim results for 2025 showed a significant increase in revenue, growing by 190% to £0.5 million compared to the previous year. This revenue comes from initial sales and demonstration projects.

Joint Ventures and Partnerships: A key part of AFC Energy's strategy is forming joint ventures (e.g., with Industrial Chemicals Group) and licensing agreements (e.g., with ABB). These partnerships are designed to help commercialize the technology and generate future revenue streams. For example, the JV with ICG expects revenue generation to begin in early 2026.

Cash Runway: Like many growth companies, AFC Energy relies on securing funding to finance its operations. The company has recently raised additional capital to support its expansion, but it still consumes cash.

In summary: AFC Energy is not currently making money (profitable). It is in a significant investment phase, spending to develop and commercialize its technology. Investors are buying into the company's future potential to generate substantial revenue and profits once its technology achieves widespread market adoption.

This makes it a speculative investment with high risk but also high potential reward."

Homecare products and detergents

Strategic Partnerships: The company forms joint ventures to expand into new areas. For example, in July 2025, it announced a joint venture with AFC Energy to commercialize ammonia cracking technology to deliver low-cost hydrogen.

Recent news

July 2025: Announced a joint venture with AFC Energy to produce and commercialize green hydrogen using ammonia cracking technology. AFC Energy's pilot plant was to be acquired by the JV in late 2025, with revenues expected in early 2026.

March 2025: Industrial Chemicals Group Limited's latest accounts were made up to December 31, 2024, showing an annual turnover in excess of £125 million.

In summary, Industrial Chemicals Group is a well-established and large private chemical manufacturer and distributor in the UK with a broad range of clients and products, including a move into the clean energy sector through a partnership with AFC Energy.

I asked AI for some background, I found the following reassuring...

"AFC Energy (AFC) is actively producing hydrogen fuel cells and has deployed them for commercial use.

The company is no longer in just the research and development phase, but is now focused on the commercialization of its fuel cell and ammonia cracker technology.

Commercial fuel cell products and deployments

H-Power Generators: The company produces commercial fuel cell products in a range of sizes. These include the S Series (available in 30kW modules) and S+ Series (for higher power applications).

Customer projects:

Construction: AFC Energy's fuel cells have been used to power construction sites. For example, they were deployed at a High Speed 2 (HS2) site in London to charge electric construction vehicles.Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging: The company has launched a hydrogen fuel cell-powered EV charging system.

Events: Their H-Power Towers have been used to provide clean power for temporary events.

Partnerships: AFC has secured commercial partnerships for its technology, including a joint venture with Speedy Hire Plc and deals with other industrial partners for deployment.

Strategic advancements

Cost reduction: AFC Energy has made significant progress in reducing the manufacturing cost of its fuel cell generators to make them more competitive with diesel alternatives.

Ammonia cracking: The company has also developed ammonia cracking technology under its subsidiary, Hyamtec, to produce hydrogen on-site.

The Hy-5, a portable cracker capable of producing up to 500kg of hydrogen per day, is scheduled for delivery starting in 2026. This will make it easier for customers to get a hydrogen supply.

Off-grid focus:

The primary market for AFC Energy's products is off-grid power generation, serving industries like construction, maritime, and data centers as a clean alternative to diesel generators"

What is the significance of this, if anything? "registered office address has changed to c/o D&A Secretarial Services Limited, 6th Floor, 99 Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7NG."

Hence my question. "I was wondering if it was a message to larger shareholders to declare what they owned as the Company wants to know if anyone has a hefty quantity of shares"

Thank you GGP

The wording is taken from today's announcement and it states, "The Company does not hold any shares in treasury" 

I was wondering if it was a message to larger shareholders to declare what they owned as the Company wants to know if anyone has a hefty quantity of shares, for whatever reason they may need to know that?

Would someone explain to a novice (me) exactly what this means?

"The Company does not hold any shares in treasury and therefore the total number of voting rights attributable to the Ordinary Shares is 901,654,095.

The above figure may be used by shareholders of the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company"

Thank you

Not me, it was AI that came up with this.

What does Cevodynia mean?

While a dictionary definition for the specific word "Cevodynia" does not appear to exist, it is likely a medical term constructed from Greek roots. By breaking down the word, its meaning can be understood.

-dynia: This suffix means "pain".

Cevo-: This is the ambiguous part, but it is likely a misspelling of a more common medical prefix.

Cervico-: Meaning "neck," derived from the Latin cervix. If the intended word was "cervicodynia," it would mean neck pain.

Cysto-: Meaning "bladder," from the Greek kystis. If the intended word was "cystodynia," it would mean bladder pain.

The most probable medical term you are looking for is cervicodynia, or neck pain. You should double-check the spelling of the term to be sure.

(Right, I'm off for a few days, I'm bound to get some kind of backlash and, for crying out loud, stop talking about people getting murdered on what is a stocks and shares advice board, at least I think/thought that was the idea of these things)

Napthm1,  

Sorry to hear about the dog bite but I do love your positive outlook - does a double negative make a positive ;-)  physics/chemistry was not my forte at school, anyway I've dipped my toe in, just a small amount, I may lose the lot but this outfit could pull it off, good luck to everyone.

dustyslay 

someone asked a question, i attempted to give an answer, sorry about that.

i'm new to this platform and i still class myself a novice.

on another thread you will see 4306 posts going back to november 2000, all mostly ****e, from me.

lost a lot of money way back, trying again, to see if i can get some of it back.

the reason i wanted to trace a poster is because this person made one very positive post the day before ceres went up by over 30% and i wanted to see if i could catch his/her next post. 

this person has never posted since.

lastly, i didn't know you owned this thread, again - sorry for stepping on your toes.

i simply wrote what i heard, r u pmf?

To back up what was said

From AI, it's clever like...

"There is no public or official information to suggest that Endeavour Mining is considering buying Metals One. News and company announcements for both firms do not mention any takeover talks or bids.

This appears to be unverified market speculation or rumor. Endeavour Mining, a major gold producer in West Africa, has a history of mergers and acquisitions to grow its portfolio, but its recent activity has focused on advancing its existing projects, dealing with new mining codes in Mali, and a share buyback program.

Metals One, on the other hand, is a much smaller exploration company focused on critical minerals and uranium, with recent news centered on its new projects and the termination of a previous acquisition. There are no credible reports from either company or financial news outlets that link the two in a potential acquisition".

Great Britain is an island that is part of the UK, with an area of about 209,331 km²

Tokyo is a metropolitan prefecture in Japan with an area of roughly 2,187 km²

ps. I like Tokyo, especially the Shimbashi area, it is the salarymen capital of Tokyo and the site of the first railway station (sorry for digressing)

Can someone tell me how to look up a poster by name - thank you
