Jurado your correct - Horrid. Especially as I topped up this morning with a 3.3K Buy! ST is going to have a difficult next webcast unless he can announce a new MDM contract. The elephant is indeed the SE Asian contract which was first announced and then secondly cancelled on successive March/April RNS's. I think we may have reached the question of whether the company can soldier through with no MDM contracts. IE will the White Label and Mtrack business be good enough to keep us going? I think the answer is not. But then surely there will be some MDM business to announce soon - yes?

Indeed Richie - these 2 guys don't seem nod it through pussy cats. All we now need is an aerospace order!

Thanks for that niky. Little 3% lift today - maybe the word is getting out? I've said before that this is a slow burner and one reason is the 12 months it takes to order a new reactor to flow through to the invoice stage. Once we get some sort of aerospace business from somebody, and we can accommodate the volume, then we will perhaps build exponentially It currently seems a bit chicken and egg at the moment.

Welcome aboard Wishey. The long term storage of dodgy fluids doesn't apply if there's no oxygen/light contact with the finished article. Details on the web sight. I don't think we actually keep stocks - production, I believe, is directly linked to sales.

Morning JohnLewis. Profit No's came from the yearly Annual Reports. Yield No's from DigitalLook.

Hi John Lewis, don't want to start a was but I'm not to certain why you want to take issue. The last 5 years have seen a total net profit of �2 Mill. I think that's low. We've paid dividends for the last 4 years at an average yield of less than 0.3%. I think that's low. While you have a good point about keeping cash for acquisitions even if the dividend was increased by 50% (not that I'm advocating that) it still wouldn't cost that much and still be well under a yield of 0.5% which in my book would still be low. As I've said future profits are forecast to increase strongly so there is room to manoeuvre the dividend in a controlled sustainable way.

I'm not expecting that strong a growth in the sp as we have a high mk and low dividend and profits so far. However as better profits are forecast I will be happy to see steady increased dividends pushing up the sp at a steady rate and, importantly, at a long term sustainable rate. This is of course barring a takeover or some sort of mega acquisition - but I'm happy with long term solid growth.

Hi stew, thanks for the info. We keep getting good news but my guess is we will have to wait till we get the year end figures to get the sp moving. Hopefully there will be included some sort of positive forecast for this year. We had to wait until the end of April last year so a few weeks to go yet I guess.

The shortlisting for exports is in my book important. The income stream this year will include for instance Brazil plus full year benefits from a host of previous new contracts that started last year. The litigation is the litigation but my bet is on the international growth anyway.

Hi stew, Agree with new agreements and potential profitability. Have you info on new staff numbers as this would be a major investment signpost?

Exactly right rivaldo. Gamma is organically growing but there is a major focus on M & A. This appointment is a way of strenghing both M & A and organic growth.

Seems a good gig and they except home workers - which I am. I just wonder how flexible they are on location as I'm in Cornwall!! It actually seems a good move as we originally had our production facility in Houston which is the O & G centre for the states. Definitely looking forward.

Thanks for the heads up NotMuch. Good job we had 2 brokers and lets hope we are not inadvertently involved. I'm hoping the scam was far to big for us to be involved, even inadvertently! I can't see our BoD is involved in this but who knows with trading partners?

Judging by the title " Completion of acquisitions " I would say wholly owned because if it was partial it should say " Completion of partial acquisitions" I could be wrong as correct grammar may have no legal standing in this case.

It's possibly the only case study applicable to the Nuclear industry so it makes sense to publicise it but it is indeed an historical study. It's almost like the Eurofighter - a minor cockpit canopy application but high profile publicity for many years..

The first line of the AGM statement said that trading was in line with management expectations. Has anybody a clue as to what this means? The reason I ask is that the financial forecast on the Digitallook site shows a 0.80 Mill rise in revenue from the 2017 year to this current year and the same again for the full 2019 year. In addition both forecasts show losses! I can't see that is in agreement with the rest of the statement or the fact that we've ordered a new rector. Any explanation?

Almost the same old same old. Perhaps a little more detail than last years AGM statement. But as Dibs says a little info on the revenue situation would have been welcome. I suppose we have to wait for the half-year figures in May? Back to sleep methinks.

Although in the past we have cut and polished stone off site this is the first year we have had a 12 month revenue stream from our own resources - a major achievement - if a little overdue! I just can't see any reason for us to have a fall in revenue bearing in mind the contacts and contracts we appear to have made over the last couple of years. I fully agree that it took to long to get to this point but now that we're there, and with the world economy picking up, I can only see strong growth in the next 2/3 years. I believe this is a potential long term earner - even if the Stone Alliance doesn't come to fruition - but if it does!!!

Thanks niky - a positive summing up. All we need now is a positive AGM statement and we could recover towards the 2p mark.
