I think it would go higher than 4p if a bid arrived. I might de-rsik a bit though, at 4p

You made me wonder where James Sturrock had gone to: Tapi Carpets

I'm not sure who'll honour the long guarantees offered by Casper and Leesa before they departed. If I were a buyer now I'd certainly have full confidence that Eve will be around to support buyers for 10 yrs +
All seems to be coming together for Eve at the mo.
Like the idea of CEO Cheryl being understated with last year's results knowing that she has good Update to announce in July.

Samkk; cross ramping - again.

OWJ89, they've made these announcements at the same time since 2017, Results followed by July Trading Update for period to June 30th. I don't think you can take much at all from the fact that we're having an update again. If anything, the change this year is that there was a recent Trading Update alongside the Results. Maybe they wanted to show that things were already looking good so the last Trading Update was a positive signal. Is that an unjustified Ramp? We shall see in a month.

One thing you've convinced me of Wyndrum is that you're not someone to invest on the basis of a hunch or a punt ("By all means we can take a punt on this one") so you must be confident of making money here, one way or another. I'll make my profit by waiting for the value to come through and that suits me.

Wyndrum:
'but we have gone from break even in Q4 to small losses now, its not a huge worry (to me) but its not in the right direction either.'
Headline at that time was 'Eve Sleep breaks even for the first time during Q4 of its financial year'. Wasn't that before fixed costs, as you once mentioned yourself? And you yourself noted you hadn't heard the expression before as I seem to remember. The fact they didn't repeat the claim could be because it was indeed a tad vague.
That was a relatively good quarter, and now all the signs are somewhat better still.

Blimey Maqsood, I for a sec I thought you wrote 'I'M holding 36% of the company'!
Yes, small transactions either way can move the sp of Eve. Done it myself with a single buy.

Wyndrum. You’ve certainly livened things up!
I have to say I haven’t seen blatant ramping on here for a long, long time. On the other side of the coin your presence here is a sign of good things to come.
I’m in the school queue now just in case you’re worried. They are late out today.

It's probably fair to say the imminence of the Trading Update surprised you last week. I think you'd like a bit longer to build a bigger position at lower sp?
Maybe you're expecting better news but not keen to admit it just yet. I'm reassured.
School run now for 3rd daughter; no rest for the wicked!

Pedantic I know, but heck, why not..
'still over a month way and not perhaps as imminent as was expected by recent posts.'
RNS came two days earlier – Tuesday rather Thursday – than the predicted a few days ago, to announce the Trading Update on the 22/7, which is .. 5 days earlier than last year (27/06/2019 Eve Sleep plc: Notification of Trading Update).
Whilst you say everything revolves around the company making money, the direction of travel is absolutely vital too. This covid time does look to be a golden chance for Eve but if there isn't a profit now, then strong indications of a future profit should lift the SP. Some people still argue – or did until recently – that this could go bankrupt. One person on this board still says Eve is doomed, even though there's more and more evidence to the contrary. The less and less likely that bankruptcy appears plausible should lift the depressed price on its own.
Online is the way forward and Eve are widening their 'sleep' product range all the time.. If another competitor leaves the market then Eve could pick up their customers too, just by still being in business, even if we don't get profits now.
I could add more but need to home-school daughters right now.

we may even have a visit from 'cuddothisnow' before long

They must be keen to get an update out. The recent annual results did include a trading update so that was slightly unusual. If the pattern follow they's let us know about a July Trading update this Thursday.

Baffyman, sorry, don’t understand your post.. D

Summer end = Sept 21st, according to my wife, and September 1st according to me. Could be a long summer for us..

Wildtiger, that's an excellent piece in The Sun you found; Eve no. 1, and only memory foam featured really. Just think if they'd mentioned ... Emma or Simba and not Eve.
Now I'm getting emails from eBay asking me if I'm still interested in a recon Eve, or even a recon Emma. The Emma is £209.00 so £50 more than the Eve.

Some of the staff don't appear to have the highest regard for the company, assuming this is the same company. Both Rotherham but this is Xeros Cleaning Technologies' Glass Door review (if my link will post):
https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/Reviews/Xeros-Cleaning-Technologies-Reviews-E1690947.htm

That sems like a very fair summary of the position. I had noticed that the technology is no longer brand-new and yet hasn't flown yet, so your comments regarding revenues later 2020 and 2021, and various deals, is reassuring. As you say, could go either way. I may make a fairly modest buy (depending on how other things pan-out) and average up up the sp rises later. If I don't take even a tiny stake I could forget completely and then be kicking myself later.
Awkward though I feel as a new arrival, this is the weekend. Has anyone been following the Tiziana Life Sc Share Chat (TILS) board recently? It seems that the 'jam' could be arriving around now. It's nothing to me whether you take a look or not; just feel I should have a swap with my invitation here. ATB, D

Gosh Wyndrum, thanks for that info. Much more helpful than I could possibly expect. i’ll read it all in detail later and give you a fulsome thanks then, but just on my way out now. All the best, D

Been doing a little digging on Xeros. You folks are obviously fans. What are your thoughts on things improving here? Just around the corner or requires a little more patience? Any comments welcome
