Check this out. Good stuff this Hardide coating. http://www.hardide.com/documents/EDF_Energy_Press_Release_FINAL_100113.pdf Best regards RRJ

happy new year. What a nice start. Anybody have any idea why, apart from what a nice company with potential? Best regards RRJ

Some taking a pay day from the recent rise? Good on them if they are. Merry Christmas. regards RRJ

Just realised that the last 2 reported trade on the 14th are from (12m) 12th and (5m) from 13th, not today. Nice to see the rise today. People seeing the possible potential here. Companies are liking the results they are getting, hence the repeat orders. Formula 1, wow. What now is going to stop us getting the aerospace orders? In testing with four other major aerospace manufacturers. 'but the majority of our valve sales are still to UK customers' wow, the world to go at still. Could be massive. 'EDF Energy is now evaluating the coating for other applications.' wow, not a back street company! 'Commercial success was achieved in coating titanium, with the first regular production order on a Formula 1 motorsport application. The directors believe that the success in coating this important but difficult base material for an exacting customer will open up a range of applications in other industries' wow, I bet they have been busting a gut to do this. How big could this be? Who else is/can do it? 'The Houston manufacturing facility remains hibernated with the plant in-situ and will remain so until demand and UK capacity are such that it makes economic sense to re-open. The costs of hibernation remain minimised and stable. A study was conducted during the year to determine the conditions that would allow the re-opening of the facility and the resources and timescales required to do so.' Reported by me earlier that a chap on Linkedin was working for Hardide and said what he was doing in Houston more or less. Was soon removed on Linkedin! Whoops. Is this due to a possibility that if Hardide get an aerospace order and Hardide UK has a problem then there is a backup scenario. Can't be doing with not making planes. 'The excellent safety record remains in place with no lost-time incidents recorded during the year.' Seem to have a tight grip on this. Well done Hardide. 'Lower dependence on a few large customers and total number of repeat customers increased by 45%' NICE! Was there anything bad in the preliminary results? Onwards and upwards. DYOR Best regards RRJ Information taken from the preliminary results 10th Dec 2012

up bright and early tomorrow. hope its a good un. best regards RRJ.

Vigneron thank you for getting back to all of us. Does your post on the 3rd of November still stand or should it be edited? I would like to think that if a tier one supplier to the aerospace industry takes Hardide on board that we will be told in an RNS as that would be big news. as always DYOR. Can't wait to here from you again as you seem to have access to information more than me. best regards RRJ

You wait for a share trade then for apparently no reason a bus load comes at once. LOL. Can't work it out. The mind boggles. Theres a lot I'm not privy to I think. Hold onto them handles bar it could be a white nuckle ride again. Best regards RRJ

All I wonder how much of an influence the British Bulls 'SELL' advice is? (britishbulls.com) I am presuming here but I guess the 3 million sell won't have help. Best regards RRJ DYOR

vigneron i hope you don't mind me asking but please state where you found the information stateing that Hardide will be designed into future (Airbus) planes. I think tests have been performed but as far as I know it has not been used on any aeroplane apart from the typhone. Please correct me if I am wrong. I feel that the share price will take off if it is used on aeroplanes, especially airbus planes. TIA RRJ

Good find Lionel.

SSSHHHHHHH....... Is everybody too scared to say anything about this nice move north in case they may jinx it??? Normally there is a raft of 'can't have many shares them mm!' 'this is going to fly' Best regards RRJ onwards and upwards.....

http://www.hardide.com/hardide-directors.htm They have had the photographer in.

Philip kirkham AND Andrew Boyce have been added to the list of Board of directors on the Hardide website. I was wondering why Andrew had not been added and put it down to his family connection having 26.5% of the group's issued share capital. Perhaps just an over sight? Anyway, they are there now. Had the priveledge of going to see some wings being manufactured at Airbus near Chester. It was not a technical look round unfortunately but they are making alot of wings. They have a forward order book of 20 ish years. So that's 20ish years of aeroplanes. I hope Hardide have carried out some testing with Airbus! I hope they can get Hardide coated on alot of their parts! Best regards RRJ

New CEO, Philip Kirkham started on 3rd September 2012. No pretty pictures on the website yet if anyone is listening (Hardide)! Best regards RRJ

I think people are now thinking more that Hardide does what it says on the tin so to speak and they like it. more customers and more applications for existing customers. They must be able to see the benefits. Again though, how much down to re-stocking? very suprised by getting this bit of news. perhaps it was by such big amount they had to inform us. i don't know. Wonder how Houston is progressing? We know someome is out there on a project. see my earlier post. Info has been removed from linkedin! more importantly how is aerospace doing and tests with supplier to aerospace industry? as always dyor regards RRJ

LOL RobR, that early!

Well I turned 500 quid (t20) from the last dip into 560 ish. that's my 105000 ish sell. It will buy me a tank of diesel for my holidays. Musn't grumble. That by the way is my first profit on Hardide. Still waiting for the 3p mark to break even. best regards RRJ

Hardide PLC Appointment of CEO Hardide plc (AIM:HDD), the provider of unique metal surface engineering technology, is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Philip Kirkham (age 59) as Chief Executive Officer of the Group with effect from 1(st) September 2012.

Below describes Tier One suppliers. RobR-Rolls Royce is one of a few. http://www.imap.com/imap/media/resources/Aerospace_8_1FED752787A1E.pdf

After watching the documentory on Sunday night about stripping down a 747 and putting it back together again I can now see why Hardide have to do all the testing. Also I can see how important it is that Hardide get into the aerospace industry. Hardide say that there are more opportunities than expected application wise "Airbus test programme delivers encouraging results with indications of a wider range of aerospace applications for Hardide beyond merely as a replacement for hard chrome ". They are in testing with an aerospace supplier. "In addition, we have begun the coating and testing of parts for a Tier One supplier to an aircraft manufacturer as well as for several other turbine blade and aircraft engine applications." I'm more than happy to hold. Comments taken from 1,Preliminary Results 11-1-12 2 Half year report 11-6-12 DYOR
