I don't think your calculations include fixed costs eg admin costs and depreciation etc.

He recently bought 400000 at 171p. He was not contractually obliged to do that!

With small purchases - yes, but £800k. Would you spend this amount to attempt to prop up a share price.

Mr. Oozi Cats, the Company's Chief Executive, purchased 400,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), at a weighted average price of 171.87 pence per Ordinary Share. This represent £687,000 investment! He evidently thought that the shares were oversold at 171p. There would appear to be no reason otherwise for him to make this investment. He did not have to buy these shares his earlier sales at that time were water under the bridge. If there had been any questions regarding the accounts he would surely have known. Any comments.

Perhaps you could be good as to let us all know what your research as revealed.

To add to your comments about internal R&D costs being capitalised. Nobody question purchased intangibles (ie external R&D) obtained from the takeover of other companies. This is normally capitalised. What is the difference?.

After several producers flagged lower production expectations over the course of the past month iodine spot market participants noted a slight increase in prices this week. Iodine spot market prices moved up slightly 20 April amid a "battle of cents" which has slowly lead to a slight improvement in the market. Iodine (crystal, 99.5%min, drums) prices moved up on the low end to $19-21/kg on a spot basis from $18.50-21/kg previously. http://www.indmin.com/Article/3711376/Iodine-spot-prices-move-up-slightly.html

Presumably products from Virginia swill be being sold into the American market and therefore priced in dollars, therefore costs and income will both be in US dollars so I am not sure there will be any impact from cost increase you have mentioned. As for aerospace, components have to be designed into new aircraft types and are unlikely to be incorporated into existing aircraft. This is a long term prospect as new types are not introduced all that frequently. Gradual improvement in 'bread and butter' oil industry market, should underpin this company's progress from now on.

Surely the answer to Ad Blocker is to deny access to the web site to anyone using an Ad Blocker. This should not be too difficult to achieve. End of story!

Many of the accusations against qpp and blinkx have been subsequently demonstrated as untrue. But unfortunately the damage was done. Shorting can be self fulfilling if carried out ruthlessly enough in that it can damage customer confidence as well as making it difficult for the target company to raise funds. The shorters do not have to be correct they only have to be believed in the short term and as it takes time for the target company to respond in detail the accusations gather momentum. The shorters are getting more and more blatent in their activities and if this is allowed to continue the AIM market will be seriously compromised.

This is SP is now merely a bet on the crystal Iodine price. Currently running at $28/kg due to oversupply. .

I fail to see a viable business model here. Perhaps someone would explain how this model is expected to work. I made this observation some months ago and nothing that has happened since has caused me to change my mind.

From interim report - The Board has declared an interim dividend in respect of 2015 of 9.6 €cents per share, an increase of 8% over the 2014 interim dividend of 8.9 €cents per share, a lower increase than the adjusted net profit due to the issue of new shares at end of June. For those shareholders wishing to receive their dividends in Sterling the last date for currency elections is 2 October 2015. Timetable: Ex-dividend date: 24 September 2015 Record date for dividend: 25 September 2015 Currency election date:2 October 2015 Payment date: 26 October 2015 Regards

Cloudbuy have 'irons' in a number of fires but business model not yet proven in any one of them IMO. Beware of statements by Ian Duncan as he appears to get carried away ie seems to be 'up in the clouds' himself at times. It seems to me he has a product / idea which has yet to find a market. It has been tried in a number of sectors and geographic areas without apparently gaining traction. I will continue to watch this share but await signs of profitability before making any investment.

Sangria seems to have gone to your head a bit! Not sure what you mean by 'turns over'. Co will do well to make £5.0m revenue this year, my estimate is £4.5m (50% growth nevertheless) with a just about break even net profit. Needs a major contract breakthrough but I am not holding my breath. They have 'cloudbuy' irons in a number of fires but business plan not yet verified in any of them IMO. By the way this is not a new company just a change of name from @Uk. Beware of statements by Ian Duncan as he appears to get carried away ie up in the 'clouds' himself. Worth a HOLD at this point but do not get too excited. Have a good holiday.

Undervalued? I would be interested how you arrive at this conclusion. Without any forward guidance or figures from the company and recent loss making history I am finding it difficult to predict a positive eps for the current year which I believe will require a greater than 50% increase in revenues. I suspect recent drop is due to lack of news and general weakness in AIM stocks at the moment. I will add that I have a small investment in this company, less than 1% of my portfolio and retain an open mind as to its prospects.

I agree student967 as usual 95% bull****. This company as still to demonstrate a viable business model and no amount of waffle should be allowed to hide this fact.
