Absolutely IWTO and well said Mr Sinclair AIM is a ****e hole that destroys innovation. The sooner they list on the nasdaq the better and by the look of those increased contributions they must be confident of achieving progress.

There are a few here in the same boat I'm sure. Keep trying not to remind myself how much my shares were worth in the middle of covid when the sp was around 10 to 14p thinking that when things opened up the sp could only go one way yet here we are at just over 1p. Just going to have to be here longer than expected for an unexpected upturn which is how things seem to work on AIM. No guarantees but continued increase in orders and if Continental comes online next year and maybe positive news on court cases things could look very different in 12months time. Can't be wrong all the time can we?

We hope so and hopefully the new CEO is well connected to the auto industry to reassure Continental that their forthcoming orders are in safe hands.
A bit strange is this new appointment maybe there is more to it than we are told and if the wider economy affecting this sector continues to improve as we have been told with the increase in H2 orders this may well pick up again but the mentioned possibility of a takeover is certainly an option.

Well it does look a little negative at the moment yet they expect FY2023 results to be inline with consensus so maybe that will boost earnings. If sales keep growing with the right person at the helm who knows they certainly have the products just might finally develop the right approach to sales which seems what the announcement is mainly about.

Difficult to be sure of exactly what the reason for AK stepping down is but he still owns many shares and is participating in the fundraising. Going to be a low sp for a while but raising funds is not easy at present so will be good to get this out of the way. Recent talk of due diligence Continental would have carried out doesn't fit in with a negative view of these announcements, hopefully AK is expecting a major upturn to pay for his retirement. Looks like we'll have to hang around here for a bit longer than expected.

If it does mean an offer let's hope it sparks some interest from other parties to push the price to a fair and reasonable bid. The sp is still very depressed and doesn't reflect the level of progress we have been told so we will see..

Perhaps the summary judgment was in favour of cpx and maxwell wish to argue the decision. Doesn't look like they're going to concede.

"nicely up here now :)"
Haven't heard that here for years hope it continues to 20p and beyond for us lth's. Well done for buying at these rock bottom prices must admit at 2p I was fearing the worst for my substantial investment still can't be sure it will work out any positive news is very welcome

Whoever said time in the market not timing the market never invested in a company like avo unless they are very very old

Thanks for the update MasterPlan I'm a lth here with a much higher average than current sp and also somewhat biased I guess. I agree with your comments about the 20p valuation and seems good fortunate to have not invested at that price. AIM is ridiculous at times not for one moment did anyone see this dropping to around 2p after achieving 230MeV. The crazyness of this market could just as well see this not only climb back to that 20p level but then go onto reach £2. Certainly not advising anyone to take a risk it may happen if it does some will make a fortune from 2p. Whilst I too would be well in profit it would be nowhere near the gain the new investors will make. As a lth you feel a little disgruntled about it and I know I could have bought at 2p but just cant justify it having already put way too much here trying to lower my average. Hope to eventually make some money here but my experience is that AIM is not for investors and rewards short term gamblers so a listing on nasdaq would be good news to me. I have holdings in other AIM shares that as soon as they provide the appropriate values I will be selling to leave this market and will only return if I feel like a short term gamble. Fingers crossed for good news here from what you've heard sound like it could be due.

If the technology works I'm sure it will be commercialised one way or another. Hopefully through a strategic partnership agreement and if via nasdaq all the better. Still can't see the likes of Siemens being happy if a competitor could pick this up for under 100m having spent 16b on acquiring Varian. For that reason alone you would think competitive bids would result in a fair price being secured which I still believe to be in the region of 300m. We don't know for sure how good the technology is and I guess there is a chance it could collapse hence the sp crashing to 2p. If the BoD haven't been completely honest about the latest progress we'll find out soon enough but they continue to put their own money on the table which leads you to believe it is as developed as stated and nearly ready for patient treatment which will be another huge endorsement.

Don't think anyone here knows & surprised we don't get updates regarding these court decisions but haven't in the past such as the outcome of the Markman Hearing so until something happens such as a settlement we may not find out.

Obviously meant luck!!!

To those who may make a small fortune from here good look to you but it should never have got to this situation. Aim is a pile of ****e nasdaq can not come soon enough. Best of look to the lth's here that probably like the BoD's need this to be valued at least in the range of 2 to 300m to see any returns. Still hoping for a positive outcome if the machine & technology works as we've been told difficult to see how it will not command a sensible price. Competitors in this market wouldn't want to pass an opportunity to gain a huge advantage. Although as has been said avo may not be in as strong a position as they would wish a few interested companies might start a bidding war we hope!

Well done m44 as a lth my average is way more than these low levels. Although I've been lowering my average to what i thought was a good level just couldn't buy more at these rock bottom prices which with wonderful hindsight would have allowed me to also be in profit. Whether that happens is to be seen hopefully a deal for the benefit of loyal lth's will be secured.

I guess the mention in the operational update of £200m equity raised to get to this point had a purpose.

As was expected by many including myself however I was of the opinion this would happen to meet the demand for all the orders not to secure finance to complete the process. Let's hope there is strong interest and not a giveaway. Someone like Siemens would do with a reasonable offer pls.

You would think it is them selling out completely after their last disposal. Can't really see a positive if it is other than at least someone is buying their shares and when they've finished hopefully that will be the last of such high volume selling. Some news on progress on items in the operational update would be welcome whilst we wait for news on financing. Does look grim at present feels like 230MeV has sapped the life out of the machine. Really have no idea how this is going to play out now but seems a bit surreal after all the years of development to finally achieve a working system and the company looking like it is on it's knees. Hoping for positive news soon for us lth's would love to hear the views of some of the heavily invested BoD's and how they feel about the millions they have invested need mr serandour to step up to the plate and navigate this ship out of this difficult situation.

Just read a bit more and the beam time application is nothing to do with Light. Seems to be exploring a new technology called Heavy Ion Therapy. Must be something else coming out of CERN if it's anything like Light could be quite a few years away.

If you open this link firstly impressive profiles from the 3 ADAM presenters with Steve Myers a familiar name here. If you then click the apply for beamtime link you'll find an application that looks like you are submitting patient information for consideration to be treated by Light. I may have misunderstood as originally thought the link was to attend a seminar so be interested to hear others thoughts on this. It does give the impression that ADAM are carrying out far more research and development work than we get to hear about. I guess there is much more going on away from Daresbury that we just don't realise or know about.
