Small Cap review
Published: 12/09/2008
TOROTRAK The technology with this one may be great, but without any idea what the earnings potential is there is no way to gauge what premium (if any) the shares should be on to the net cash in the balance sheet – can anyone help the Champion?

| Date | Summary | |
|---|---|---|
| 01/09/2008 | When is a fixed price contract not a fixed price contract? When it’s an OPG Power Ventures fixed price contract! | |
| 25/07/2008 | Oil service groups enjoy ‘boom time’ but things could get tougher for the the solar boys | |
| 21/07/2008 | A positive trading update from the top of the Champion score board | |
| 04/07/2008 | Pursuit Dynamics - I still see nothing to justify the valuation! | |
| 30/06/2008 | Yet another interesting business leaves the junior market – concerns for AIM! | |
| 23/06/2008 | Victoria: Great results, great cash generation and a stonking dividend – the carpet boys have done it again! A move to AIM would surely give the shares a lift. | |
| 13/06/2008 | Poor old Chamberlin! Its foundry has been around since 1890 and now it is subject to a ‘nuisance claim’ from a new housing development. No wonder British industry has a tough time | |
| 03/06/2008 | Corporate insolvency looks encouraging for Begbies Traynor (at least someone is winning) and IDOX puts out a positive trading update | |
| 26/05/2008 | Share plc; one week on AIM and the valuation looks even more wacky! | |
| 19/05/2008 | A great set of results from Vertu Motors and the sun continues to shine on the solar industry | |
| 09/05/2008 | Claimar Care - the share price fall looks a bit severe but are there deeper problems! | |
| 29/04/2008 | Lots of positive updates but Tanfield still has it all to do | |
| 22/04/2008 | Titan Europe - patience is a virtue! | |
| 11/04/2008 | Both the Bateman boys come out with news of encouraging contract wins, Pressure Technologies is experiencing boom times and Lamprell powers on | |
| 20/03/2008 | Lots of good news here but share prices continue to tumble. CVS Group proves to be the great defensive choice – for the time being! | |
| 14/03/2008 | Some great results from Hallin Marine, Tikit Stanley Gibbons, Northbridge and Mears; to name but a few. | |
| 29/02/2008 | Nighthawk continues to fly, Lupus encourages and Smallbone is making progress in the US – we can’t cook but we can make kitchens! | |
| 22/02/2008 | A thought provoking commentary on Mattioli Woods, reassurance from Et-china and for Corac the long wait begins | |
| 15/02/2008 | An encouraging new sales agreement from Jetion to close the week – all eyes on Domino’s Pizza results next week! | |
| 08/02/2008 | A c14% yield (confirmed) from Sport Media Group and Titan Europe also warrants more attention. | |
| 01/02/2008 | A terrific performance from Victoria (the carpet boys) and a diabolical state of affairs at Worthington Nicholls Group | |
| 25/01/2008 | A scandalous state of affairs at Acertec but Jetion finishes the week on the up after the principal shareholder loads up again and again and again…. | |
| 18/01/2008 | Another shocking week on the market and even the brokers are starting to fight each other | |
| 11/01/2008 | In the face of a tumbling share price the pizza boys come out with a reassuringly positive trading update! | |
| 04/01/2008 | Happy New Year! Jetion gets off to a 2008 flyer as management picks up over £1m of shares in the company | |
| 21/12/2007 | Hooray, some positive news from Interbulk (any news will do!) and a cracking announcement from Bond International to finish off 2008 | |
| 13/12/2007 | As expected, the results from International Greetings weren’t good, but at current levels these boys are surely worth following | |
| 06/12/2007 | A lovely set of interims from James Latham, the timber merchants. Short term perception will be that this one has exposure to the UK’s struggling housing market so should be avoided– not true according to management | |
| 04/12/2007 | Shares in Domino’s Pizza continue to suffer along with the rest of the UK restaurant sector – with the average spend at only £5.90 per head I can’t see the logic! | |
| 28/11/2007 | It’s tough in the AIM arena at the moment but those single digit forward estimates are starting to appear! | |
| 16/11/2007 | Chieftain provides a nice finish to the week! | |
| 09/11/2007 | A nice week for resources! | |
| 02/11/2007 | LEADCOM – you can’t say we didn’t warn you, again! | |
| 26/10/2007 | Aero Inventory is really flying – but so it should be! | |
| 19/10/2007 | More good news from Geong, oil services boys are booming, Worthington Nicholls disappoints and Wray and Hemsley continue to receive preferential treatment at Myhome – what’s new! | |
| 12/10/2007 | Broker Network – an example for us all to follow | |
| 05/10/2007 | There’s one near the end for the ethical dreamers of this world! | |
| 28/09/2007 | The usual controversial note on Tanfield – I do like them, it’s just a valuation thing! | |
| 21/09/2007 | Flying Mounties! | |
| 14/09/2007 | Shaken not stirred! | |
| 07/09/2007 | A good week for kitchen manufacturers! | |
| 31/08/2007 | There’s some value starting to appear! | |
| 10/08/2007 | In the current market wobbles we thought a ‘Bargain Assessment’ theme was warranted | |
| 26/07/2007 | It’s business as usual, James Halstead continues to shine in the gloom | |
| 20/07/2007 | Tanfield – even a broker’s starting to think the share price is looking stretched! | |
| 16/07/2007 | Some favourites in here (Somero, FDM, Geong, Hallin, Albemarle & Bond) and some others! | |
| 04/07/2007 | Betting on a spread better would have bought big returns! | |
| 29/06/2007 | Champagne and chocolate cake; all signs of prosperity! | |
| 22/06/2007 | The story of carpet making and the tale of 2 desperados! | |

| 01/06/2007 | Colourful tie exits stage! | |
