Agree bas,
ExtremeE is not just about the racing, and I'm expecting each race to have a 'behind the scenes' segment covering all the different and unique aspects of the series (not just the locations) as part of the coverage, so a standalone piece on AFC should be one of those at some point in the coverage.

This is being covered under the EGM RNS of 25/01.
Deadline for voting on the proposed technical change of settlement location closes on Monday, and the switch is due to be completed on 15th March.
No knock-on impact for shareholders, so far as we know, although individual platform providers may have issued their own guidane on the change

No buckast, will you take a slimfast (shake) instead?

I believe on AIM (as with other markets) there is an pre-market auction before 8am, so yes, it is feasable for the market to open higher (or lower) on news.
Can't really explain it, but the attached may help

Hi bighammer,

Perhaps contradictory, but I invested on the potential with the hearing test, and the Hep C test, both of which have seen positive updates since and are definitely long term success targets, but also on the perhaps bigger potential of the PCR test, especially with the timing, and I, like many were hoping to see big contracts/sales coming to fruition long before now.

The delay in approvals has been what is disappointing, rather than the actual fundamentals/technology of the products themselves, so the BC tie-up and the potential of what is to come is certainly exciting, and hopefully a driver of growth over the coming months.

I invested over 2 (or maybe 3) tranches in a short space of time to reach my target, and despite the drop have not been inclined to average down as I am happy with the weighting I hold across my pf (circa 6%).

As I said though, there is only so far that the potential can take you. I am happy to hold and wait on news to firm up some of the unknowns.
As with all my shares, I will review as updates received, but potentially half my holding will be here for the long term, the rest will depend on firm numbers and how these are received, along with my own personal situation at the time.
What is important for me is that I held during the big drop, rather than panic and sell.
Yes, I could have traded to get more at a cheaper price, but not my thing.

Good luck with your position, and good weekend to all

Some good Q's there, Gallifreyan.
I suspect we will see an RNS on this prior to them looking to give a detailed answer, so this may all by the wayside, with some aspects not getting addresses, but we shall see (hopefully early next week).
Good weekend all

Good morning Rizq,

You asked last night what my SP target was for next Friday.
Sadly, I am not a trader, so unless there is material news, daily, or weekly SP fluctuations are of no real concern to me.
I invest for the medium/long term and simply do not have the time to try and trade any share. Good luck to those that do (so long as they are open about it).

Realistically, though, with so many unknowns, and variables, how can you accurately value any AIM company without material figures to underpin any valuation?
What has materially changed in the past few weeks to change this from a company seemingly worth 40pps, to one worth 150pps, or more?
And I mean materially, as in something tangible that you can say is worth 'X''pps to the bottom line?
Indeed, what materially changed for this to drop from over 200pps in May to 100pps in August?
And why did the vaccine news cause a 50% drop here, why not 10% or 25%?

I can't answer any of these.
As I have said on several boards recently, hype, sentiment, expectation, potential, will ony take an SP so far (sometimes higher than is a true value in the short term), there always comes a time when firm results, sales, numbers, 'meat on the bones' is needed to give a fair valuation, push a SP to the higher levels.

Some may still see me as a deramper (32 posts here in 30 days), which is fair enough.

If you look back to my posts here in early/mid-Jan, I replied to several posters here who were fed up with the SP, lack of news, management, etc, and saying they were selling out tomorrow, or next week, or at the end of Jan, if there was no news.

I made several posts around that time to suggest that if they had waited this long for news, then why sell out with no news, when the HY figures were due in a few short weeks which would guarantee them some news and the ability to make an informed decision, rather than one on the preceived lack of anything concrete?

If anyone had listened to my suggestion then, their shares would be worth more than 3x what they were, just like mine are.
For the record, I stated at the time that I was waiting on news too, and would potentially sell half my holding based on what was released in the HY figures. I may still do, despite this recent rise, but only if I consider a better alternative to put any money into.

I am delighted at this rise, just not getting carried away with the wild speculation.
Again, many may disagree with my view, as is their want, but I feel that I am always open and transparent in my views, I always post to say whether I have bought, added, hold, or when I sell/take profit so that my position is clear.
I only post on boards I am invested in, or are researching with a view to investing in, and have never tried to talk a share down, or post on rival boards, like many do.

Again, the filter button is available if posters prefer not to read my views.

Stevek, Hopefully, I have spaced my paragraphs sufficiently for aesthetic purposes th

Fair enough, BigAl,
As I said, we will have to agree to disagree with regard to saint.
Typical that some (not you) would rather come out and make silly and childish comments in an attempt to provoke a response though (here comes Axelrod and Valuefinder, right on cue as proof).
If other posters think I am deramping, then that is their priviledge, but I have been consistent about my holding here over the past 8 months or so, since I initially invested.
I have never stated that I do not believe in this share, or am not positive, I just have a realistic expectation when it comes to AIM shares, given the risk vs reward, and see no purpose in making unfounded SP predictions as nothing anyone says here will affect the SP (but may influence other PI's, rightly, ot wrongly).
I would not be holding if I did not believe, but dislike the group pile on's to ramp, just as much as the naysayers who continually put a share down.
Anyone who dislikes my view, please feel free to ignore, or put me on filter.
As I said earlier, I rarely post here now as factual posting has made way for extreme optimism of late, with little factual basis (imo) which is not really helpful for me, so I will silently hold and comment only on news in future, if at all, which as I have said numerous times today I expect to see on several fronts in the next 6 weeks, given the timelines for the HY update.
Apologies if mine is not a popular opinion, I just prefer some realism and feet on the gorund expectations in the hope that over-delivery is a better and more satisfying reward

Your view, BigAl, so fair enough.

Consider this, though.
Saint ramped this stock with multple 'multi-bag imminent', and 'this will rocket on news' posts all day, every day, for months on end. 15-20 posts a day, all saying the same thing, and all no different to what he was posting on multiple other boards at the same time. Does that sound like balanced research to you?
Zero research, or factual info to back anything up. Just baseless ramping (imo).

On the very day the vaccne news dropped, he disappeared without a trace from this board. No posts here for well over 3 months, until the sudden rise a few weeks ago. Then he was back here as if nothing had happened.
But not shameless ramping? Ok.

The SP has more than 3-bagged since the lows due to the vaccine news, but on what? The BC connection? Still nothing concrete to back this up (but I sincerely hope this comes to fruition after all this time).
And yet, posters old and new are expected to believe that this will multi-bag again on firm news landing based on the posting of the likes of saint?
What I really can't believe is the high regard that others posters seem to hold him in.
As I said, posters are free to believe who they want to, and if they do not dyor, then it is on them.
Many posters on these boards are disingenuous, out for themselves, and don't care who gets shafted so long as they make money (and can brag about it to try and enhance their status further).
My view has not changed here in the time I have been holding. I prefer not to mislead others and have realistic expectations and timescales for any returns.
I hope my conservative view is proved wrong.
If it is, I will hold my hands up. But, the rampers will not have been proven to be right just because (if) the SP hits their long-predicted highs. They have been saying similar for well over 9 months as it is, so it is timing of news/results rather than their superior knowledge that will be the factor behind any further SP growth.

Just to finish, someone on the latest SP prediction has added a comment to say that if news dops then ">£3 is a definite by Friday". But there is no undue ramping here, apparently.
Good luck to you with your investment, and good weekend to all.

No surprise that saint is back again with another multi-bag forecast for just 1 week ahead (despite being massively out for the past week, unsurprisingly for this shameless ramper).
BB will no doubt follow suit with something similarly unrealistic for the SP.
Other notable recent arrivals too, ramping the F out of this, big time.
Sincerely hope that genuine investors are not caught out by these posters, only here for themselves.
How people do not see through these posters is beyond me (and no, it is nothing to do with exuberant optimism, it is ramping by traders, pure and simple)
The only guarantee, is that posters like this will sell out long before their forecasts, taking their profits, trading this while telling others to pile in for ever higher returns, and posting about top-ups, while cashing in themselves.
Shameful behaviour by some on here in recent weeks, but if other posters do not dyor and get sucked in by all this, then that is on them.
Good luck to the genuine PI holders here, and good weekend

B2,
Have to disagree with your view that the market is oblivious to what is going on here, and broker fair value not really something I would hold much store by, tbh.
Everything to date is potential, future revenue generation, long term addition to underpin the company, allow growth and increase the mcap.
What is the value of the ABB collaboration, for example? No one knows. Nothing concrete, no figures to dissect and give a value to, just an outline of the potential (which could be very lucrative).
Same with everything else currently, imo.
Lots of potential, lots of good news, everything looking to be coming together and I have no doubt the SP here will be much higher at the end of 2021.
ExtremeE is a fantastic shop window for us too, a potential company maker, BUT, the market wants 'meat on the bones'. Firm orders. Closed deals. Numbers, Meaningful cashflow. A way to value the company without so many 'unknowns'.

What has really changed to take this SP from 17p to 85p to 70p here, and I mean material change that you can quantify and state with certainty that this is worth 'X' to the mcap?
Hype, sentiment, potential etc can only take the company so far, often higher than the true worth in the short term.
The market then wants delivery, and this will happen, just not immediately.
I know I have been here a shorter time than many, but saying this should be over £1, or we should have the same mcap as ITM, is too simplistic, imo, and the comparison is unhelpful, but still a sign of the potential, what could be,
As Aimm often says, daily SP movements (frustrating though they can be), should not matter 1 jot if you have dyor and are confident in your investment.
Frustrating, of course, but for me, the rise here (and elsewhere) was overdone, if anything, and we are seeing the consequences of that these past few weeks.
Everyone has their own opnion, so happy to disagree with others' views.
We all want the same thing here afterall.
Plenty of patience for me to see how this plays out

"I don’t understand anyone selling it’s stupid"

So many people on these boards just do not seem to understand how a market works. There needs to be buyers and sellers, and people buy and sell (or hold) depending on their own individual requirements, strategies, risk profile, etc.

Just because 'person A' thinks this is a buy, doesn't mean that everyone else does. If everyone was buying and no one was selling, exactly how would that work? There would be no shares left in no time.

So many posters seem to have a very simplistic, and naive view of how markets work.
'MM games' seeems to be the 'go to' reason for anything that happens on any share that goes against popular thinking.
It's amazing how much 'research' posters will supposedly do on a stock, but how little they know about the investment process and how the markets work.

Rarely post on here now, as the board has been overrun of late. Little actual research, and realism/perspective from many.
I will continue to hold. Very happy with the outlook here compared to just 5 weeks or so ago.
Daily SP movements immaterial for me now we are close to some firm news.
I will await news and the HY figures, there should be plenty of hard, factual information to digest, and place a more reliable indication of the true mcap and potential here within the next 6 weeks.
Good luck to all holders, and DYOR

Tolster1,
Your 'buy' was reported to the market as a 'trade' in line with MiFID II requirements, just like every single trade on every single exchange in every european market is.
Whether the 'trade' is a buy, or a sell, is never disclosed to the wider market upon execution (there is no requirement to do so).
These published trades are picked up by sites like this and interpreted on a best-efforts basis (as to the direction) using the info. at the time of execution (e.g. executed price vs bid/ask).
The direction (buy/sell) shown is an indicator only, so should be viewed with caution.
No MM games involved, just a (stupid) flaw in the regulation agreed by the EU which was implemented for so-called pricing transparency

MM's did not mark it as anything, sandal, so nothing 'naughty' going on at all.

New Directors are often given shares, otions, etc when they join.
A 'golden hello', if you prefer.
Sometimes an enticement is needed to encourage them to join from a bigger competitor, or if their basic salary is lower than their past role due to the growth stage of a company.
Would it be fair for them to miss out on anything performance related, when other directors are?
Presumably, there are tax advantages both for the company and staff too, and it helps to align their role with company growth ambitions.
It's common in FTSE stocks too.
Not really anything to read into this, imo, especially if performance targets are met, as we will all surely reap the rewards then

Could all those claiming that this is being manipulated and shorted provide some evidence to back this up.
Tks in advance

SirBob,
Whilst like most, I am hopeful that this will be confirmed by Monday, note the wording of the RNS:
"Legal and corporate due diligence is being conducted in parallel with the drafting of the loan facility and security agreements, with the objective of concluding the documentation in the coming two to three weeks..."

Companies will not set dates in stone, especially in an RNS, and delays can/will happen, as we know here more than most.
After the extension to the proposed end-Jan timeline for this to be completed (albeit this will still be within the 90 days exclusivity period), together with the follow-up placing(s) no dooubt as a result of this, any further delay to this 'objective' would be a real disappointment.
I suspect that they will be hoping to make a big fanfare of the funding news, closely followed by the presentation - I feel any deal may well be finalised over the weekend, so news next week for me.
We'll see

Some good posts here.
Many interpret a Fund selling as being a bad sign, but their internal restrictions mean it is inevitable that if a company SP rises quickly that they can exceed internal limits and have to sell down to remain compliant with the funds' aims and guideline requirements.
Selling down does not necessarily mean a loss of conviction.
Agree with Fourseasons in that we should be pleased, and it appears that any shares being sold are getting snapped up quickly

I hadn't seen anything about tyres previously (I think PHE do specifically mention them from memory).
Found this document though that includes waste tyres as a main waste type, but does not go on to say if they do currently process them, rather that a system can be designed according to the waste material to be used.
Suggests that the tech can process them, but perhaps the current projects have not been specifically designed with tyres in mind?
