Commercial Joint Development Agreement Significant development agreement signed with major global corporation to commercialise OAS' technology development in patented VISARC™ coatings and nano-particles in electronic displays Oxford Advanced Surfaces Group Plc (AIM: OXA), the AIM-listed advanced materials and licensing company announces that it has signed a 9-month non-exclusive agreement with a global industrial manufacturing company to fund the development of commercial anti reflective coatings (ARCs) for use in electronic displays. As part of the agreement, the company has the option to license the technology from OAS on completion of the development and source nanoparticles manufactured by OAS in order to commercialise ARC coatings for their global customer base. The global market for anti-reflective coatings on LCD displays used in applications such as flat screen televisions, tablet computers, mobile phones is more than $500M pa. The challenges faced by manufacturers of larger screened televisions and the increasing dependence on tablet computers around the globe give rise to the need for more efficient anti reflective coatings than ever before. Oxford Advanced Surfaces has developed the technology to cut reflection to 0.5%, well below the industry standard of 1.0% and intends to be at the forefront of this increase in efficiency of anti-reflective technology.

You also have to take in last years inflation of 5% approx and the devaluation of the £. Its a bit more complex m8 However as the £ is on its way up and inflation falls this year this may help the bottemline, but this could be offset by the higher Libor rates, higher Ni contributions and the "Euroeffect" who knows apart from the accountants

Only because the muppets keep selling then the last deal of the day is institutions buy the lot... cheap share again today another £750,000 buy ... LOL after hrs...

In June last year we set out our vision for the future of Thorntons and we remain committed to rebalancing the Thorntons business, creating a smaller retail estate, revitalising the brand and restoring profitability. During the first half of our financial year we made good progress in implementing this strategy. Our closure programme is on track and we are encouraged by the positive customer response to our new store prototype, which traded strongly over the Christmas season. Thorntons has a well-managed balance sheet, quality asset backing and good cash generation. The Board is confident that Thorntons has the expertise and resources needed to complete this transformation successfully and restore profitability. During the period under review profit before tax and exceptional items was £3.1 million (2011: £8.4 million).* The Christmas season remains the key trading period for our Company and, in common with many other retailers, the weak economy affected customer behaviour in each of our sales channels. This manifested itself by selective purchasing and trading down into the promotional lines which had an effect on both sales and margins.

Nice post m8

Yea the world will end tomorrow, i suggest you sell the £ move ...

Dont talk rubbish... I agree the UK is in a pickle but thats the fault of gross over spending by Goverments, They have had there wings clipped now, and the electrorate are getting there house in order to and are starting to understand that Business generates wealth not the Labour/Liberal party with its spend and lets borrow more policy. The tax burdon will have to be lifted to get the economy moving again so we will see lower tax and smaller Goverment as we move forward. This change is also already underway. Which in turn leads to growth in THT.

Its already happening "my scenerio" Thorntons has the brand and is capitalising on it... I am happy to hold, and have rather more shares than you sold. All the best m8

When you have sales in the £200m mark, and you are in profit in a major downturn, the company is clearing out all the dead wood, and investing in a revamp etc, expect a huge jump when the market returns to normal trading. as such i suggest you buy some back, and forget about them, in 1 or 2 years you will get a cracking dividend based on the current SP ... and of course capital growth to boot.

Agema .. i only point out the fact, but i dont think your 4926 shares will upset the market. which seems to be moving back up. I would say you sold to soon, as Thorntons directors had the kick up the arse last year, and have turned it around and still in profit, according to the news on LSE 3.1 million of those £ ... best of luck in your multibaggers.

What planet you on mate Mars bar ...

well there are some strong buys coming through my advice follows Yanar, this is a strong buy and hold. All the best THT holders but i for one won't sell.

you are missing the point they have closed unprofitable stores which of course will have an inpact on sales however you are only looking at one side of the equation ... the costs involved of those stores won't appear on the other side. So overall they are making the company lean and more profitable. Also online sales are going up, this is the way the market is going, and has small operating costs v sales.
