interesting comparison (not perfect...and perhaps unfair..but so many other opportunities on the go!!) ...less than a month apart... ..."encouraging so far" (June) to "growth in the Group's recurring revenues, and therefore revenues as a whole, will be more modest than had been expected for 2014 and beyond" (this morning) AGM Statement (extract) "To this end we continue to improve and increase the Group's sales and marketing reach. This investment has resulted in our ongoing growth and our expansion to well over 100 active clients, including previously announced wins this year such as Atterley Road and Romans Original. Retailers have continued to be attracted to MoPowered and in recent days, the top-end beauty brand, Urban Retreat, and one of the largest online fishing equipment retailers, Tackle Discounts, have chosen to sign with the Group to provide their customers best-in-breed mobile-friendly websites. As part of our plans to support our ambitious growth trajectory, we have recently made a number of key senior hires in the sales team. These include a Head of Account Management; a Channel Manager with experience of developing relationships with companies like PayPal and Magento; and a Senior Sales Engineer with strong mobile experience. The recruitment market for talented technical and commercial resources remains highly competitive so we are pleased to continue to attract new talent to MoPowered. Additionally we continue to make improvements in the underlying technologies within our Software-as-a-Service platform that will further improve the customer experience and performance of MoPowered's mobile websites and apps, thereby strengthening our proposition. The uptake on MoPowered Professional, which was recently launched, has been encouraging so far." Trading Update (extract) "After a strong first quarter, some of the larger deals which the Group had expected to complete in the second quarter of 2014 have now slipped into the second half of the year which will impact the expected results for 2014 as a whole. As previously announced, the rate of launching live mobile sites for smaller SME customers has been lower than expected due to operational constraints and challenges in acquiring these customers cost-efficiently . Consequently, growth in the Group's recurring revenues, and therefore revenues as a whole, will be more modest than had been expected for 2014 and beyond."

here are a joke imv...just free shares lol

bounce?

March remains the most significant month for the profitability of UK automotive retail as a consequence of the plate change and its impact on new car demand and the seasonality of servicing. UK new car registrations to private buyers ("the retail market") in March increased by 20.8% showing a continuation of the strong growth seen throughout the last two years. The Group's like-for-like new car retail (excluding Motability) sales volumes increased by 20.5%. New vehicle like-for-like gross margins on a percentage and per unit basis were slightly lower year on year as a result of increased discounting to drive volumes. The increased volume, however, more than made up for this margin shortfall with overall increases in new vehicle total gross profit on a like-for-like basis. Profitability was also improved by the dealerships acquired last year for which this was their first March within the Group. The Group's like-for-like used retail volumes were up 14.5% in March and April. Gross profit per unit was maintained and the Group delivered an enhanced profit performance in used cars as a result. Dealerships acquired in recent years are again exhibiting improved used car returns as they move towards Group average return on investment levels. The used car market currently remains stable with strong demand and residual values moving in line with normal seasonal trends. Service profitability since the year-end has run ahead of the prior year and continues to benefit from the successful customer retention initiatives being executed by the Group. The Group saw a continuation of positive trading trends in April with strong contribution from dealerships acquired in the past two years. The Group's like-for-like new retail (excluding Motability) sales volumes rose 3.7%. The outlook for the new car market in the UK remains favourable with anticipated growth in the private market, albeit at lower levels of growth than witnessed over the last year. This means a continuation of the recent trend of manufacturers to direct higher volumes of vehicles to the UK as they seek to manage European overcapacity in the face of weak Continental European demand. There is a continued risk that this growth may lead to pressure on new vehicle margins, yet a higher volume environment normally benefits the Group through higher overall profitability. Whilst some Western European markets have entered positive territory of late, the UK market remains a major outlet for vehicle manufacturers. Medium term aftersales prospects are clearly enhanced by a growing new vehicle parc. The Board remains confident that the Group is well placed to maximise the opportunity for profitable growth as recent acquisitions are integrated and turned around and the core business continues to improve profitability.
