Smarttech247- prize shits disgrace the AIM Casino, does nobody care about the rules any more?

Smarttech247 (S247) floated on the AIM Sewer as an “award winning” AI cybersecurity play raising 3.67 million pounds at 29.66p on December 15 2022 c/o Nomad SPARK. Less than three years later it says that it is delisting and its shares are just 2.75p. There is also a year to July 31 2025 trading update. Sales raced ahead but we are warned that margins were softer so, ignoring disposals, underlying EBITDA will be below forecast. Surely it knew this some time ago. What on earth is SPARK doing in not reminding its clients about timely disclosure rules? About AIM Rule 10?

EXPOSE: Zenova RTO – You just cannot be serious!

It is clearly silly season in the world of small cap RTOs. On Wednesday I exposed how Peterhouse Capital was masterminding an RTO into Atlas Metals (AMG) valuing a, to the tune of £2 million, insolvent business with an asset bought for £1,000 at £1 billion. Yesterday it was the turn of Zenova (ZED) and, once again, Peterhouse is involved. With offices next door to those of Liam “The Toke” Murray one has to ask what Peterhouse staffers are smoking these days?

BREAKING: Craven House Nomad walks, shares suspended, big questions for the auditor of Brown Envelope Man

Oh dear, oh dear, I fear that Mr. Lee Lederberg of Edwards Veedeer (UK) Limited, the man who signs off the ludicrous accounts of Zak Mir’s Lift Global Ventures (LFT), is in a spot of bother following the suspension of shares in AIM Casino listed Craven House Capital (CRV). I shall be writing to my good pals at the FRC later today.

Global Petroleum: the twitter ramping of CEO Omar Ahmad, does Nomad SPARK not give a FF?

If you wonder at why AIM is such a cesspit from which good companies are departing, Global Petroleum (GBP) should be a case study. And it is one that shows that Nomad SPARK really does not give a FF about any sort of orderly market and the rules.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Is this the time that Bidstack's James Draper really does go to jail - questions about the interims

I start with some nerd like comments about river and reservoir levels in North Wales. Bear with me. This will be interesting I promise. Then Bidstack (BIDS) and what questions today’s shocker begs about the pre-placing interims. Surely the Nomad ( SPARK) and AIM Regulation must investigate. Then Okyo (OKYO) where post podcast recording the company has published interims on its website. Technically it missed the deadline and the FCA – whose conversations with me I discuss – must take this further. As it happens the interims are truly appalling and red flag strewn as I discuss HERE Then I discuss Lucian’s two big oil shorts: Pantheon Resources (PANR) and Canadian Overseas (COPL). He is right on both IMHO. Finally a few words on Helium One (HE1)

Letter to AIM Regulation re Deepverge PLC – clear breach of Rule 11 ahead of bailout placing, public censures needed

This should be an open and shut case and, if only pour encourager les autres, Deepverge PLC (DVRG), its Nomad SPARK Advisory and its journalist trolling arse of a CEO Gerry Brandon should be served up with a severe public censure. I have written to the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation below.

Bidstack AGM statement – utterly deceptive, how on earth did Nomad SPARK sign off on this?

Bidstack (BIDS) a company that is on the brink of insolvency with almost no cash has today issued an AGM statement that is so thoroughly deceptive in failing to explain the crisis the company faces that its Nomad Mark “the poltroon” Brady at SPARK should be censored for signing off on it.

Letter to AIM Regulation: The Time to suspend Bidstack shares is NOW pending clarification

Despite incteasingly desperate attempts to ramp its share price, AIM dog Bidstack (BIDS)  sees its stock marooned at 6p. Interestingly, the spread is wide enough to drive a bus through, indicating market makers are aware that either one last ramp but also that a deeply discounted bailout placing may be imminent. But the bare fact is that the company cannot both meet May payroll and satisfy short term liabilities. As such, its shares should surely be suspended pending clarification of its financial position. I have written to the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation today making this request.


Suspension of trading in shares in Bidstack PLC

After 4 letters from myself to the regulator, disgraced Bidstack is Forced to admit to lying again

Since April 17 I have written to AIM Regulation and hapless Nomad Mark Brady of SPARK four times about the latest big lie to investors told by Bidstack (BIDS). At 4.20 PM on 27th April came an RNS ‘fess up but I smell no contrition. This is a company with a culture of deception. But without ShareProphets it would have got away with it.

A personal letter to the head of AIM Regulation Marcus Stuttard re Bidstack and investor deception

I have now written not once but twice to the Oxymorons at AIM Regulation regarding the misleading RNS Reach issued by Bidstack PLC (BIDS) on Friday 17 April. The Oxymorons and indeed hapless Mark Brady at Nomad SPARK have yet to respond. So enough of monkeys, I have written directly to Marcus Stuttard, head of AIM Regulation, as you can see below.


To Marcus Stuttard.

Another letter to AIM Regulation re Bidstack - time to suspend the shares

The Oxymorons at AIM Regulation and hapless Nomad Mark Brady at SPARK have yet to reply to my letter of Saturday about Bidstack (BIDS), the almost bankrupt company led by Lyin’ James Draper which, I believe, (again) deceived investors last Friday. so I have penned a follow up missive. Surely the time has come to suspend the shares. The letter is below.

A second letter to AIM Regulation re Bidstack PLC – where is the formal lack of profits warning?

I have already written to AIM Regulation and the FCA about Bidstack PLC (BIDS) about the way its CEO James Draper materially misled investors in a podcast with Justin the Clown on August 8 2019 with regard to half calendar year results.  I trust that action will be taken. But I now have cause to write again on the matter of the full year lack of profits warning the company should be issuing and is not. The letter follows.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Why Bidstack now needs a formal (lack of) profits warning and could it run out of cash in Q1 2020

Of course I only record this because I am in the pay of the Israeli and Russian Governments. Whatever. I start with the pathetic deadwood press and how Richard Jennings blows them off to his shame and my disgust. But this podcast is really all about Bidstack (BIDS). Its CEO lied to investors on August 8 as explain with more detail this time. Ther case is open and shut. Now the company needs to issue a formal lack of profits warning. Again that is not a matter poof debate as I explain, in case wretched Nomad Mark Brady of Spark is listening and wants to avoid getting into even more trouble after his August 8 failure. Finally I ask how soon it will need to place again?

Craven House Capital - The 100% Joke Continues - What is the real value of Pressfit Holdings ?

Cynical Bear showed what a total joke, AIM listed Craven House Capital (CRV) was. Now here is another total killer. If Nomad Spark was not aware of our full coverage yesterday from CB (HERE) it is now. And it should resign at once, this company is simply not investment grade material. It is uninvestable crap. And that brings me to Pressfit- a company that I have lambasted before HERE.
