China 'to overtake US on science' in two years Search Google
2012-April-19 08:53 Shenzhen Daily CHINA is actively looking at buying into European publishing companies as part of its strategy to raise the country’s cultural profile, a senior official said late Tuesday. Tan Yue, president of China Publishing Group Corp. (CGPC), said his company wanted to expand its editing, printing and distribution interests either by buying such businesses directly, purchasing capital stakes in the companies that ran them or forming joint ventures. During an interview at the just concluded London Book Fair, Tan said CGPC was already looking at possible targets. “As a matter of fact, we’ve already had some initial negotiations with those partners,” he said. Tan gave no names. One of the companies under CGPC’s umbrella, China National Publications Import and Export Corp., signed separate strategic partnerships Tuesday with Dutch publisher Wolters Kluwer and with Britain’s Publishing Technology Plc., a provider of software and services to the sector.

Add that lot up and see why I am so bullish.!!
Broker forecast April 2013 We have again revised our target price upwards as we continue to believe that Publishing Technology should see positive profits momentum now that its R&D cycle is nearly complete. As its products and/or services either reduce costs or introduce new revenue streams for publishers, there is in-built demand for PT’s solutions in our view. This is especially the case as publishers look to outsource more. In addition, considerable scope remains to penetrate its large customer base with more online products. As we flagged in our note “Profiting from R&D” on 5 March 2013, while it is our view that the Chinese JV could provide considerable upside to the Publishing Technology valuation, there is no profit contribution in our current forecasts. Our 360p target price has been arrived at by comparing PT’s target 2013E EV/sales of 1.8x to similar companies. This valuation is supported by a reverse DCF of 360p per share. We maintain our Buy recommendation. News from China: Broker lifts to 475p 30/08/2013 There have been a number of positive developments at this week�s Beijing International Book Fair for Publishing Technology (PT). Its chief executive, George Lossius, has been accepted onto the China Book Industry Advisory Board. Its JV partner has unveiled its first major release, the CNP eReading platform, a site that carries over 200,000 individual book titles from over 300 international publishers. In addition the first �advance� installation in China is likely to be moving to final contracts after PT signed a partnership agreement with China Law Press. While we are not changing our forecasts at this stage we believe that the risks to numbers are firmly to the upside as we have not included any significant contribution from China in them. As a consequence we are increasing our target price to 475p, which is derived by assuming a FY2014E EV/sales multiple of 2.1x, and we maintain our Buy recommendation. Since the two broker updates above the Chinese have put out the press release posted by me this morning. Thus I should think they will be up rating any day.

ramas 8 Sep'13 - 12:17 - 5997 of 6011 0 0 I think many (including myself) can sometimes miss the bigger picture when analysing companies such as @UK. We do this by intensely focussing on the hear and now / near term numbers but forgetting the dream. This is a vision stock and the valuation might not correlate to the 'numbers' for a very long time but more on the progress of the 'vision'-Of course that's not to say the numbers don't count - they do. But look at our friend ASOS -they will never achieve the heady earnings expectations before the barriers to entry are broken and a competitor arrives on the scene - they will only make a sensible PE by the shareprice falling - who knows when that day will arrive and its foolish to guess. My point is that it is very possible with Vision stocks like @UK to go to an apparently crazy valuation on the vision alone. Finally just imagine what a NASDAQ listing would do !!! scary .... id rather be in than out and maybe you don't need to own that many shares for the 'potential' to make some serious ££'s. I also suspect we have significant US buying going on - they probably cant believe their luck compared to mega valuations they are use to
