Should be music to the ears of Carmel Fisher's devotees in BRM. Should help to offset her disastrous investment in CCP.

Yeah there has been nothing but deal flow announced over the last few months but stock got knocked back - nice to see it making a strong and fast comeback this last week.... the more sign-ups they get the more long-term lock in revenue they secure for the future. Its looking like shaping up as another impressive Australian success story in IT not unlike IBA (although the market does not seem to think too much of IBA at the moment they have achieved a great deal over the last five years/...)

Just missed out picking up some more BVA at 1.19 a few weeks ago. Sometimes its silly to sit top of the queue waiting to be filled!

If BVA stays around these levels for too much longer, you'd think the directors would seriously considering re-visiting the takeover proposal that they were rumoured to have recieved late last year from a UK institution that valued PEM at $2.10 to $2.30.

Steve was that and AFR rumour?

Stock is running again.....

Rumours of t/o running around once more.

I've also heard that there is a new insto looking for a big stake which might account for it.
