Interim numbers are expected. These will cover the period that takes in the biggest global recession in memory. There will also be an update expected on the 110Mns secondary placing. The city is nervous. But all the pundits seem to suggest that public offerings are set to rise in 2010, [DAN] has several lined up. By all accounts broker activity is increasing.

[NRRP] the seeds of some rather interesting shareholder value upside have been sewn. http://www.northriverresources.com/

[NRRP] The true positives of this venture with [KAH] will take some time to filter down to the pundits, city and analysts. But in the meantime the current sp presents a good entry point ahead of upside in shareholder value as the new shares weigh heavy on the market.

[NRRP] This company has some really serious assets now. North River Managing Director David Steinepreis said, "We received an excellent response to this Placing, prompting us to raise £7 million as opposed to the mandatory £5 million as part of our agreement with Kalahari, which still resulted in a healthy level of demand at this enlarged figure.

Directors have been quietly accumulating stock so might be an idea and possibly prpfitable for the risk takers to follow suit.

Excellent set of interims announced..This AIM-quoted developer of maritime identification and tracking technologies, announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2009. During the first six months, SRT started to see the fruits of its long term strategy. Revenues increased by 122% to £2.1 million whilst the loss for the period reduced from £402,000 to £31,000 compared to the first six months of last year. Net cash balances increased by 32% from £535,000 at 31 March 2009 to £705,000 at 30 September 2009. This stock is doing the rounds amongst the professional tipsters, some quoting target price 30p upweards. All as i know is that SRT has the oceans and shipping lanes and all those shipping vessels that use them in the palm of its hands. SRT is the only one a few companies that offers a reasonably priced offering to maritime tracking security devices. Share price presents excellent value at current levels.

[DAN] Almost 4% of the issued share cap (isc) was bought up at last knockings of session. There is no doubt it will not be the end of the speculative buying spree. A corporate announcement is due which will confirm indirectly that substantial shareholder value is but a "blink" away. Some shares scream out "buy me" this is one such share in my humble opinion.

[PPR] Board response is this. PPR, the global specialist in the supply and installation of enhanced glass protection, notes today's announcement by Westminster Group Plc ('Westminster') the recent share price movement and recent speculation concerning a possible offer for the Company from Westminster. The Company confirms that Westminster last week made an approach to the Board of the Company, which in its opinion, was at a figure that substantially undervalued the company being considerably less than the share price at that time. The Board considers that this initial approach fails to reflect the clear value in Pentagon and the material progress it has made over the past 12 months. There can be no certainty as to whether a formal offer for the Company will or will not be made. In other words WSG has to try a little harder if it wants to woo the [PPR] Board. [ERU] might want to take a stab at [PPR] as it has a vested interest. Watch this space for some serious upside from. .45p/share as last reported A further announcement will be made in due course.

[PPR] Market has been giving off signals for a while now. Target price has to be beyond 1p/share http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/prices-and-news/news/market-news/market-news-detail.html?announcementId=10275596

[PPR] So now we know that there was some credence to the market speculation GL ATB. http://www.lse.co.uk/ShareNews.asp?shareprice=WSG&ArticleCode=78bqywzr3k5awf4&ArticleHeadline=BRIEFWestminster_confirms_approach_to_Pentagon_Protection

Supplier of eco-friendly commercial vehicles and the London licensed taxi, today held a teach-in for institutional investors at its offices in London. A copy of the Company's latest presentation is available on the website, http://www.ecocityvehicles.com/.

[SNRP] This has been a long time favourite and Coal of Africa [CZA] has continued to build on its stake building, now 14% plus, as reported on the general chat thread, since August. Either an outright bid or a joint collaberations looks to be gathering momentum. Both of these companies could show considerable shareholder value upside. Both the Eletheni and Vele projects would compliment each other nicely. Continued buying should be mirrored.

Just to recap on general chat. Expect some excellent share price enhancing corporate news soon. This is what I wrote and it all adds up to "the knowledge" in timing as discussed on General Chat. GedW Posts: 7,479 Opinion: No Opinion Price: 0.00 Familiar pattern...14 Oct '09 The market appears to be following a similar trend, and that is, mark a share down substantially ahead of some corporate positive news, this allows the "City" to take a position ahead of the game. What is for sure the recent fall in share price is unjustified.

Stop Press. Hi boredmum. I have just seen that PALA did take their holdings to over 22Mns last June that did take them to 29.36%, my mistake, thanks. The takeover "whitwash" could apply if they exercised those options which would take them over the The City Code Rule 9.1 30% rule.

Hi boredmum. The latest I have is that PALA did have a holding of 29.36% but that has since been diluted by the further secondary offerings. The current voting rights stand at 77,438,514 shares. PALA has 18,706,326 representing 24.16%. But I may have missed some rns along the way. Even if PALA did have 29.36%. The exercise of the options would take it over the 30% mandatory offer threshold, but they would be entitled to make an application for the "whitewas" exception Appendix 1.1 to the The City Code, a dispension can be granted by the takeover panel this relates to the issue of new shares as consideration for an acquisition to underwrite the issue of new securities, options could well be the issue of new shares, , this would effectively permit PALA not to be obligated to make a mandatory general offer. The rules on this in the The City Code on Takeovers and Mergers and SARs are quite complicated.

[SXX] worth a look see. Although the sp has rocketed up 800% since first footprinting this. There is still room for improvement longer term. Has extensive interests in AusPotash and Derby salt (which it has just bought out for £13mns satisfied by a secondary offering). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHOVKrD0AaQ&feature=related
