Intriguing commentary from Unipixel's results out tonight, including: Http://finance.yahoo.com/news/unipixel-reports-first-quarter-2015-200100505.html "with XSense, we are currently shipping a finished product to a Tier 1 PC OEM customer, and have a pipeline of products in mid to late stage development. While we are in the early stages of integration of the XSense operations, at this point we anticipate XSense revenues of at least $10 million for the year." ""We continue to ship existing XSense touch sensors orders to a Tier 1 US based PC OEM customer for three touch sensor devices ranging from 8" to 11.6" in size. These shipments are expected to generate revenue in the current quarter. "Looking at our customer pipeline, we have five touch sensor designs through initial qualification stage with our current customer and other Tier 1 PC OEMs based in the U.S. and Asia. With one of those U.S. based PC OEMs, we also have a touch sensor design in the final qualification stage. We have been meeting with potential customers in the U.S. and Asia to provide an update on the XSense acquisition, introduce the benefits of the combined operations and IP position, and to discuss program progress and potential order timing."

Pleasing that FOX have been able to carry out a small £2m placing at a reasonable discount to the current share price to repay the convertible and help with North American expansion. It suggests to me that, given FOX already had £4.7m net cash, there were investors keen to take a stake at this interesting point in the company's development. This is reinforced by the existing investors now increasing their stakes.

News....in particular: "The Company is in discussions with a number of strategic partners specializing in the health and wellness industry with regards to the commercialization of OxiChek™, KetoChek™, and BreathScan Lync™ Http://www.investegate.co.uk/akers-biosciences--akr-/rns/akers-introduces-new-rapid-breath-tests/201505120720398731M/ "Akers Biosciences Introduces New Rapid Breath Ketone and Oxidative Stress Tests to the Health and Wellness Industry Akers Biosciences, Inc.

Terrific coverage yesterday - looks like a new contract not yet announced: Http://www.scotsman.com/news/transport/infrared-beams-to-help-scotrail-ease-congestion-1-3768451 "Infrared beams ‘to help ScotRail ease congestion’ Sunday 10 May 2015 INFRARED beams are to be used by ScotRail in an attempt to reduce overcrowding on trains. The technology will be fitted to carriages to detect how full they are, so passengers can be diverted to empty seats elsewhere on the train. It will also enable the firm to add extra coaches to services when there is sudden high demand. The devices will be installed above carriage doorways to count passengers as they cross the beams.

Now ticking up to new recent highs on unusual buying activity this morning - seven separate buys, with the latest at 5.7p. The AGM statement must be relatively soon (last year's was 29th May).

Very good news from yesterday - Wincanton must be a fairly large account even if this isn't RNS-able, and this solution will roll out over the coming months, benefiting current year results: Http://www.touchstar.co.uk/news/2015/wincanton "TouchStar retain Wincanton as key 3PL account TouchStar have supplied fit for purpose warehouse terminals to Supply Chain Giants Wincanton for over ten years. Pleased with the service they have received from TouchStar, Wincanton have upgraded to TouchStar’s latest generation of warehouse terminals. Back in 1993 TouchStar won the custom of market leaders in supply chain solutions Wincanton. TouchStar successfully installed narrow band and TouchStar’s older generation truck mount terminal, the Monaco into their GSK Brockworth and Middlewich sites. Due to many years of great service and support by TouchStar, Wincanton decided it was time to upgrade to TouchStar’s next generation of Warehousing solutions. Their existing Narrow band infrastructure is in the process of being upgraded to Wi-Fi and their terminals upgraded to TouchStar’s newest portfolio additions. Wincanton experienced first-hand how TouchStar’s rugged devices had not only enhanced their warehouse operation but they had also seen a great return in their investment.

The Vienna is both rugged and fit for purpose with an IP65 rating, GPS and a faster operating system it is perfect for all warehousing environments.

New interview with the CEO here: http ://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/stocktube/3731/hayward-tyler-ceo-says-more-opportunities-after-fmc-deal-3731.html - there will be more opportunities on the back of the company’s production alliance agreement with FMC Technologies, the big player in the sub-sea systems - O&G was less than 10% of the business in the last year, but O&G could be a "gamechanger" for the company. HAYT's products increase efficiencies etc - funding is now fully in place for the plant expansion, with no more needed

Today's trading update reads pretty well to me: Http://www.investegate.co.uk/ncc-group-plc--ncc-/rns/trading-update/201505060701532654M/ Trading for the year is in line and the CEO is bullish, talking about it being "an exciting period of controlled growth". Revenues are up nicely, order books are up and the Domain Services division remains on track. A decent start.

with trading in line - and April being "strong" - and all sorts of reason for optimism: Http://www.investegate.co.uk/gama-aviation-plc--gmaa-/rns/trading-update/201505060810063082M/ The expansion into India is promising, and the mention of the preponderance of smaller operators emphasises the number of potential acquisitions which GMAA could be making.

Going nicely - and on decent volumes too, so not just buyers from the IC tip.

With California coming onside re gambling regulation, looks like Alabama and Iowa are also considering similar moves.... http://www.pokerupdate.com/news/law-and-legislation/04291-alabama-iowa-consider-gambling-expansion/ "Alabama and Iowa Consider Gambling Expansion April 29, 2015 As California is finally moving forward legislation to legalize online poker, two other states are considering moves to expand gambling. Should these proposals become successful, they could become future candidates for online gambling expansion. Senator Del Marsh of Alabama is rumored to be introducing legislation later this week that would legalize both the lottery and Vegas-style casino games in the state. Meanwhile, the Iowa Lottery is considering whether to offer online lottery sales. Alabama Senate Leader Wants to Legalize Gambling Is Alabama the next state to legalize the lottery and Vegas-style gambling? If Senate President Pro Tem Del Marsh has it way, it will. According to AL.com, Marsh may be introducing legislation later this week that would legalize both the lottery and Vegas-style gambling in the state. Marsh’s proposition to legalize gambling comes as the state faces a short-term budget shortfall of $200 million and maybe as much as $700 million long term. His hope is to legalize gambling and use that to fill the gap in the budget rather than raise taxes. etc"

HVN just tipped today in the IC - and the P/E is even less after stripping out the cash pile: Http://www.investorschronicle.co.uk/2015/05/05/shares/news-and-analysis/harvey-nash-eyes-a-re-rating-KqekhOEqOzbgVoZrrELU0H/article.html Conclusion: "IC VIEW: Hitting the £10m pre-tax figure - which is forecast for the 2016-17 financial year - would put Harvey Nash's shares on an earnings multiple of eight. That's a big discount to the sector average, so the re-rating story looks credible. The generous dividend yield is another sign of value. Buy."

Continuing to rise on nosey buying, with another 50k bought at the full 5.25p offer today.

HAYT's O&G business is mostly to do with increasing the efficiencies of extraction of existing reservoirs, not to do with exploration, so in theory this (relatively small) side of their business should continue to do fine. And FMC are massive - this is a huge opportunity for HAYT. Take a look at these two recent subsea contract awards for starters: Http://ir.fmctechnologies.com/releases.cfm FMC Technologies Awarded $393 Million Subsea Systems Contract for Eni's Block 15/06 East Hub Project Offshore Angola Dec 18, 2014 FMC Technologies Awarded $268 Million Subsea Systems Contract for Chevron's Agbami Phase 3 Project Dec 17, 2014

Numis reiterate their 160p target price and Buy for HVN: Http://www.directorstalkinterviews.com/harvey-nash-group-plc-85-potential-upside-indicated-by-numis/412662308

Good news - integration of HAYT's products into FMC's should be a big boost for a £34m m/cap company like HAYT. FMC "has more than 20,000 employees and operates 24 production facilities in 14 countries", and "is the global market leader in subsea systems": Http://www.investegate.co.uk/hayward-tyler-group--hayt-/rns/new-global-production-alliance/201505050701450983M/ Rather good of FMC to contribute $2m to HAYT for the expansion of the new production centre too. Plus we have another $1.25m subsea order by Eureka for Malaysia.

Finally no stock around?

MDCO's own release reads well....
