I doubt they have stocked up for two crops. That would tie up a lot of capital. If they saw another crop being a reality, they could always order some more product

if you look at the results statement, they talked about customers in the n. hemisphere not re-ordering, 'The business over that reporting period relied primarily on the Northern European sector, specifically our markets in the United Kingdom, Benelux, France and Germany. Each were challenged by high in-market stocks of our products which we expected distribution to sell out and then re-order. The very cold and prolonged spring coupled with a hot dry summer deterred growers from investing in new products and so farmer usage did not pull through enough distributor carry-over stock to trigger re-ordering. However, the decline in sales into the channel masked a small increase in farmer usage year-on-year. Furthermore, management made impressive progress broadening and deepening awareness of the performance of Plant Impact products at the grower level. This is an accumulating asset that we expect will be converted into sales in the coming seasons.' if this statement is true, it should imply that distributor stocks are relatively low so next years ordering should not be affected by having left over stock. this should help next year's sales; let's hope winter doesn't last as long!!

I would imagine that the southern hemisphere's orders are largely completed by now. Bayer would have ordered enough to cover customers for the season…they don't want to run out of stock in the middle of a product launch. they have invested a lot of time , people and money in staff and customer training

ouch! I guess they weren't going to be great following their warnings earlier in the year re. weather. They are doing the old bad news/ but on the other hand good news gambit. Get the bad news out the way in the morning for us to digest and then throw us some titbits later in the day to make us not feel as bad

prices again it seems! so little interest in this company atm.

I have been told Friday and Monday…hopefully tomorrow. Also should see some nice gains from weak rupee and some clarity on receivables

tomorrow hopefully, or maybe later in the week

All a bit odd unless the trades are true and one of the IIs is selling down/out

Someone/s off loaded a lot of stock lately…up to about 2 million shares. there are only 5 share holders with that kind of holding new city, enterprise ventures, arysta, fil investments and wh ireland. it wont be fil or city as they have been recent buyers. i would be gob smacked if it was wh ireland as they are the nomad/broker so i suspect it is enterprise ventures(been on the share registry a long time) or arysta. or a combination of share holders who knows? at least they have been sucked up by someone/s at a decent price

Something worth keeping an eye… Peter Pan is selling better than Jungle Book at a similar point in the process……..yet, it has not been sold to a distributor in the USA…..which must be the biggest and most lucrative market. I expect some news here before too long

I can also report easy communications with the company. Very approachable. Very happy holding here waiting for fair value. it will come

'DQ Entertainment, the global entertainment production and distribution group, announces that it has concluded a number of TV Co-production and Licensing deals during its second fiscal quarter to 30 September 2013 and at MIPCOM 2013, Cannes - the world's annual entertainment and content market conference - held earlier this month. The gross value of these co-production and licensing deals between the partners is approximately $37m (INR 2220m), OF WHICH APPROXIMATELY $12M (INR 720M) IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO DQE AND EXPECTED TO BE ACCRUED AS REVENUE OVER THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR ENDING 31 MARCH 2015. plenty of new production deals this quarter and 15 new licensing deals to add revenue to the bottom line plus 'The production deals are expected to add to the bottom line of the Company from the first quarter of the next fiscal year, while the realization of the licensing and broadcast revenues is expected to continue through the following quarters. The Company is also currently in advanced discussions for several other production and licensing deals and further updates will be provided in due course.' So they continue to advance the business 1/. production bread and butter revenue 2/. repeat broadcast revenues 3/. licensing revenue trading on a PE of 2.5 way, way under valued

They have until some time in November to post results till the end of July. Drawing a negative on them not reporting early seems somewhat premature. We know they had a whole new sales team starting this year, we know that the season started a month late, we know they have made noises about this. These two things MAY indicate sales may not be as robust as when compared to a normal weather year and a bedded in sales team. Who knows, we shall see From their twittering they seem very excited and pleased with Ametros results. Hopefully this product launch has worked well, seen good results and will lead to sales growth in year 2. I see little mention of INCA/potatoes. I gathered from the investors day that they have a different sales strategy than in previous years which should 'pay dividends ' over time i.e. to develop stronger ties with the growers, inform them better about optimum application, go back and see if they are happy with results…i.e. build a dialogue and continued line of communications. The Bayer deal is fantastic, what I have been waiting for for years. Again from the twitter accounts you can see that Bayer are taking it seriously, doing proper training of its distributor sales staff. We will have some winter income..at last! Fidelity buying in at 23p is a great stamp of approval for the direction that management are going in. The price has drifted on small volumes, no news and the summer doldrums. Quite typical small cap behaviour. With any luck they will be very close to or will achieve their break even end of July target
