GOTCHA: Sareum placing and retail offer at just 10p, for morons and financial masochists only
For 20 years Tim Mitchell has been fighting the good fight against cancer at Sareum (SAR) giving hope but not actually delivering anything other than accumulated losses of c£23 million and a six figure pay cheque for him every year. Last year his total package was £207,847 but I suppose a man has got to live. Lovely Jubbly. Anyhow, as predicted on this website a few times in recent weeks, simply to survive the company has today announced a hugely discounted placing.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Kerboom, GOTCHA!
In today's bearcast I look at Ben's Creek (BEN), BSF Enterprises (BSFA), our own PL and Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX), Cavendish Financial (CAV) where surely a profits warning is on the way, S4 Capital (SFOR) and then in great detail Technology Minerals (TM1) which appears to have broken a string of rules on disclosure, accounting and worse. It really is a zero in waiting. GOTCHA!- By Tom Winnifrith |

GOTCHA! Technology Minerals – why interims and year accounts need to be restated to consolidate Recyclus Group, shares must be suspended NOW
Technology Minerals (TM1) published its interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2023 today which showed a loss of £1,476,000 and net assets of £20,639,000. They are erroneous and need to be restated as do last year's finals and that throws its plans to get the FCA to approve an RTO prospectus into disarray. I shall be reporting Technology to the FCA and FRC today. So here is why this company co-founded by disgraced Chris Cleverly has breached the rules and why its shares should be suspended which, given its reliance on death spiral funding, could well trigger bankruptcy...- By Tom Winnifrith |

The fraud Supply@ME issues another 1.5 billion worthless shares to Zamboni: more smoke and mirrors vicar?
The long running farce continues with more shares being issued, no more cash being raised and Supply@ME Capital (SYME) still a fraud, generating SFA in revenues and technically insolvent. What is not to like? If only we had a world leading regulator looking at the Standard List where these worthless bits of confetti are traded.- By Tom Winnifrith |

December-announced half year results from “semiconductors for global communications markets” company CML Microsystems (CML) emphasised “the financial and operational progress made during the period has been pleasing and gives the board a great deal of confidence as we continue to deliver value to our shareholders”.

OptiBiotix Health – discounted EIS placing, target price cut but still 85p
OptiBiotix Health (OPTI) has announced a £1.35 million placing with CEO Steve O’Hara arguing “given the scale of the opportunities, the board has decided to raise additional capital to capitalise on these growth opportunities and build shareholder value”. It hasn’t got off to a very good start – the news sending the shares more than 11.5% down to 21p. But this is an EIS raise, the last OptiBiotix will be able to do, so suggestions of flipping are just wrong.- By Tom Winnifrith & Steve Moore |
