'his' not 'is'? this typo stuff is contagious. anyway, fairwell arsenal, now we have hit your exit level, good luck elsewhere.

from the agm materials http://www.clinigengroup.com/system/files/rrp/presentations/agm-presentation-oct-2015.pdf

given the limited range, poor style, & repetitious nature of posts by roberti and blondestreak i assume that they are probably both bots programmed by the same workie who is doing the software for lse bbs.

hawkhead has been remarkably quiet for more than 3 weeks now, with the share price up 35% from when he last posted on IOF. perhaps on holiday?

arsenal, your concern for holders is truly touching. i shall bear it in mind. atb.

mind you, agree that it would be nice to see cfo get ditched.

other thing i quite liked myself about the update was the way in which they seem to be emphasising that they are switching focus a bit from recruiting tons of additional staff to get brand new customers in, to slower rate of sales force growth but with what sounded like more focus on developing and deepening relationships with existing customers, through better trained / more experienced sales staff (consultants) who have an understanding of that client, with more possibilities in time to sell some other added value consulting services. i might be reading too much into that, but sounded a more viable way to keep growing income streams that simply piling it high and selling it cheap to anyone they can think of.

swings around, don't it.

.... just out of idle curiosity, comparing the last post in which upenn referred to having 600K shares [29th july] with subsequent lse price charts for gbo, it's an interesting claim for upenn to make today that: "I sold out for around 47p" since highest recorded gbo close price after that was only 45p on 6th august. -- granted, some of the intraday trading may have touched higher, but it would have been an impressive achievement to have found someone prepared to take 600K of gbo shares off his hands at 47p after that 29th july post. still, it's AIM, stranger things have happened, lol! anyway, farewell gbo bb, been some good times and some less good. i hope for the sake of those with big sums sunk in here that the administrators are successful in securing the cash deposits and perhaps in hiving off some real parts of the company.

(mind you, no idea if upenn may have been posting elsewhere about selling out at the time he did it, e. twitter, since i don't follow it.)

mpg1, even if you did check them, upenn's later posts wouldn't really tell you much about what he actually did or didn't do as the share price fell sharply in aug/sep. upenn posted fairly often about gbo in a very positive vein & was claiming very large position size as late as july & up to **3rd august** (when sp was just over 40p). but then upenn did not post at all on lse about gbo for around 6 weeks (during while price crashed). then on 16th september when sp was just under 29p (having bounced back from sharp decline) upenn posted on gbo & stated that he had sold out of his very large holding "several weeks" previously. i'm not sure how transparent that actually is, declaring the liquidation of a huge position *several weeks* after the fact? ... but lse posters are under no obligation to be transparent, and it makes no difference to anyone's p&l anyway.

"A decent trading update and another sensible set of figure in 6 months and imo this will be rerated." maybe that's a fair part of the issue this morning? aim 'investors', well the pis at least, tend to want their jam tomorrow, not jam in 6 months time.

no evidence so far that this has got anything to do with failures to enforce AIM regulation? seems rather more straightforwardly, a company where some senior figures simply set out to lie & defraud in systematic & multiple ways over sustained period. no doubt their lawyers will each argue that it was someone else's fault. (wrongdoing seems admitted, but probably no-one has admitted whose wrongdoing...) ash, i can see you are still in a state of disbelief, but this company has been caught bang to rights. interesting thing now for holders is mainly whether or not the cash that has been reported is really there, or whether it (a) never existed or (b) has been rapidly removed from banks in last few days.

... one imagines there are some sticky conversations being had over at forum. - who seemed to have been a keen buyer. either costis had them good and properly suckered (or someone at forum had a cosy arrangement with costis helping him unload.)

lost a bit here, but fortunately a couple of little toes rather than big ones or limbs. excellent object lesson, always diversify, & be suspicious if too good to be true. i guess at this point, holders just need to look for what value there will be from the cashpile & from sale of the real parts. (& hope the cash has not been robbed) very sorry for any who had big chunks in here, aim a dangerous game. gla.

hi JR, i agree with your comment on the use of 'allow' in the RNS. as ever, such RNS leave a fair amount unsaid, so pis & observers are left to do a certain amount of interpretation. (kind of what these bbs are for, sometimes.) alternative view on why accounts are not yet published would be more because there were discrepancies yet to resolved in the books submitted -- however, the RNS does not read like that; it seems to emphasise that the hold-up is to do with getting sufficient funding in place, presumably to be signed off as a going concern. if one takes that together with the move to newer, larger premises, it reads as through DAN is going for a boom or bust approach; some of its critics have pointed to the high salaries & bonuses it pays out, & high cost base overall, & have suggested Dan needs to do stricter cost-control -- but hire of larger office space, &, arguably, this 'funding package' if larger than bare minimum needed to plug the accounts, suggests that instead of tightening its belt, DAN wants to leap forward with some aggressive expansion. no pain, no gain? gl all honest and civil folks.

of small toes back in this recently but now am not very convinced that i will get them both back. ah well, c'est la vie / guerre. yet another good reminder always to diversify, especially on AIM. gla.

tim, transaction date 20th, not yesterday? - they notified yesterday.

..... but nonetheless, suspended.

? what would be the reason to suspend? ... suspension is not something done just because some particularly bad or good news comes out about a company. would do it, for example, if there is reason to think that some kind of important company news that has leaked, so that some investors have it but some don't; i.e. suspension would be in order to prevent an unfair market, or a disorderly / false market, rather than simply to stop sp movement.
