It is indeed. Things picking up all across the board. I reckon a record year to September and awaiting the order of a new larger reactor to cope with more turbine blades and landing gear parts. Could we actually make a profit???

My thoughts as well Alocasia. Still, good to hear positive stuff in a sea of financial doom and gloom. Another record breaking revenue year due and a maiden profit to boot (hopefully)!

These 2 agreements pretty much equal the whole of last years revenue. Not out of the woods by a long chalk but a positive start to this year plus new machinery on its way to increase capacity - roll on some block sales and this could be the start of something good!

Traditionally if these go up so does HDD's revenue. There could be a sustained world wide exploration mini-boom coming.

Can't quite see how a one-off company that has a truly unique product with multiple applications and is still in 'start up' mode can be measured in any usual way. In any case with 6 months to go to year end we could break even or make a maiden profit.

More importantly we still have a research/development facility in ( I think ) Moscow which looks vulnerable. Could the Russian operation be developed into a competitor? Question for the AGM perhaps?

Perhaps more "Contract Delivery?" on the September RNS. Can't help feeling that with only one larger reactor the revenue will be limited. Lets see how long before a new reactor is ordered.

With 5 other 'developments' this is an enormous potential. Could be as big as aerospace in time. Will help March's figures as well!!

No. I'm wasting no more time feeding your ego, you can Trump on and on to your green box.

share4. So basically you asked three questions about the RNS that had nothing to do with it and when questioned about it concentrated on the irrelevance of your post. Trump would be proud!

share4, Please answer my query in my 13.13 post.

What was the point of your 12.57 post? If you are unable too justify it then please say so.

Hi share4. None of the three things in your 12.47 post adds anything to the bottom line - as you well know. That wasn't the point of the RNS. It was giving information both about recent developments and reassurance re the sale of DoseMeRx .

What was the point of your post?

I've come to the conclusion that share4 is our resident Trump. Says most things "off the cuff" with scant regard to facts and usually engages with any reply in a derogatory post. Don't like filtering but also don't like self ego massagers.

Hi share4. The following quote is from your Wednesday 1702 post.

"the worst possible thing you can value a company on is potential without numbers behind it and the fact that it works with "big names", it's all smoke and mirrors. "

I ran a loan business as a sole trader and as a separate Limited Company. If i wanted a loan or an increased overdraft i did precisely " the worst possible thing " because Natwest required and relied on them to make approvals. All projected accounts and/or forecasts have less substance than both smoke and mirrors.

If you fund raise through the Stock Markets or Banks or privately, as my clients did then, Figures are required - can't think off hand of contrary examples.

I missed that Richie, presumably good 1st quarter figures then. Bodes well for a good 1st half.

You would of thought that if orders and revenue are in fact picking up then in view of the last couple of poor years an update on the 1st quarters figures would have been helpful. By now though it's probably to late for that - just have to hope a trading update on the 1st half is prompt.

As of Friday the Baltic Dry is down to 1415. An encouraging drop over three weeks. My guess is that if there is a market for block marble then this lower transport cost will encourage buyers. Apparently the buyer views the block and selects the blocks they want and then the transportation costs are down to them. Not to certain how much block is already quarried and on site - probably not that much so the end of the winter break could be a factor here. Another factor is that although shipping rates are declining on major routes there is apparently still a bit of a container jam in some Chinese ports but these are probably also declining. Another consideration is that shipping from the Med to China will probably be not to expensive - but are the containers available?

An awful lot of variables but I think there's a promising situation for this quarrying season. As the effect of the Pandemic is perhaps reducing then this is I think a make or break year. If we can make it through this current quarrying season then we should be OK . Because we now have increased production facilities in the factory we now have two potentially important revenue streams. In turn this brings forward the possibility of the Stone Alliance coming to fruition. And that's without the Compo!!

Let us all hope that airbus's planes go faster then airbus's admin!!! But to be fair we've been reputably talking to other aircraft manufacturers for many years with what seems similar time scales, notably of course Leonardo's. However as Kirkham has said this glacial progress is in fact a barrier to entry for any competitors, lets hope he's right!

Thanks Epucsurf - very interesting. I'm with you Alocasia although I think it's more like two eyes! I'm guessing that expanding in the US will be a similar pattern for most states and expanding in Europe is a series of one-offs. So the US expansion should be comparatively easier. I don't know what the Nasdaq criteria demands but with our inevitable income increases so visible any US investor worth their salt would be very interested. This will only be reinforced by the majority of our income coming from the US and Canada. If we do manage to get to a Nasdaq listing before being taken over we could all be millionaires Rodney - but it won't be this time next year!

Explain exactly how you will keep highly regarded Doctors and Surgeons to accept a pay cut!

Hi Bakky - re your concerns. An RNS on the 3rd August 2020 said that the Clarigen test had received a CE-IVD Mark. As I understand it that is the standard required. On the 14th of December we entered a 2nd Framework agreement with the UKHSA and on the 23rd of December we entered a third Framework agreement with the DHSC. We have I believe entered 4 different framework agreements. Logic says therefore that at least last December we still retained our CE-IVD Mark. I think that if we had lost it we would be required to RNS that fact.

I have every sympathy with your frustration at a lack of response from YGEN but that is a different matter from law breaking.
At the very least you should announce to the BoD that you intend to raise this at the next AGM unless you get a reply. Might work?

Hi Morbox - The wrong link was quite interesting actually as it had a free demo for Deal or no Deal Slingo. No explanation so I didn't really understand the options but I got a good flavour. It appears to have a lot of good choices. I could see why it could be popular.

Thanks
