News Is it just me, but I see that the Latest News section is no longer actually doing what its should do - have the latest news on stocks published? Yesterday 3 RNS of relevance to me were issued at 7am - BMK, IDEA, XLM - yet none featured on this site.

Significant volumes today - 18.1.18 Some relatively big units going through.....sales more likely than purchases? Thoughts anyone?I still regard them as a strong buy, and glad to see them ending the day on the placing price. Im looking forward to all those profitable acquisitions taking advantage of the vertical opportunities the CEO waxes lyrical about.

Good news about placing is small discount Another of my shares, Taptica, went through a similar process a few days ago though that also involved some sell offs by major management shareholders too. That was at a discount of 10%. This discount is much smaller and indicates that the management have been confident that they can raise substantial funds at close to the running SP. I look forward to them putting their even bigger cash pot to similar good use as Ory's previous investments, and to seeing the SP by the year end at a substantial premium to the current SP.

Fundraising for potential acquisitions XLMedia said it had raised around £31.7m from a share issue, allowing it to consider acquisition opportunities.New shares were issued at 198p each and represented about 7.8% of the company."We are delighted to have received such strong support from both existing and new shareholders as we continue to see a significant opportunity to grow XLMedia both organically and through acquisition," chief executive Ory Weihs said."This fundraising will enable us to fully capitalise on acquisition opportunities we have identified in key verticals."There is quite a lot of this sort of activity going on. It already had quite a lot of cash. Although mixing oranges and lemons, it seems to have had around $40m before the most recent Finnish acquisition, and this should nearly double this. It is quite common when a share is well rated for it to raise funds in this way. It is much cheaper and more controlled than bank debt arrangements. It also perhaps indicates that Mr Weihs has grander plans than the Finnish company. Certainly so far his acquisitions apparently have been successful and I look forward to the shares climbing well above the £2 mark again in due course after this temporary 'SP setback'. So a very strong hold, and I may add on any weakness.

Re: New acquisition makes €1.25m EBITDA I assume XLM will get broker forecast increases/upgrades after the new acquisition completes in the next month or so. Meanwhile here's an article giving some more detail about the acquisition not in the RNS - "big things planned, so watch this space":OT: charlie51, I don't have the other tips handy, sorry.[link] Extract: "Following the acquisition, Good Game Limited will focus on building out its recently launched Bojoko.com brand; its most comprehensive and innovative online casino affiliate site to date. Bojoko is unique in that operators have the power to generate their own content. Operators will enjoy full control over how branding is represented and players are kept updated on all the latest news and promotions. It is a concept that has proven extremely popular in other online industries such as hotel and accommodation listings with the overwhelming success of companies such as Airbnb and TripAdvisor. In today’s regulatory landscape, Bojoko also provides operators with a unique platform to update players on any changes to their Terms and Conditions, ensuring a fully transparent dialogue between the operator and its customers. Toni Halonen, CEO of Good Game Limited, said: “We are delighted to have reached a deal with XLMedia to acquire some of our most successful online casino affiliate sites, and for them to take each site to the next level.“Following the acquisition, we are going to focus our efforts on bojoko.com, and making it the most valuable and powerful online casino comparison site in the world.

New acquisition makes €1.25m EBITDA Excellent - a new heavily earnings-enhancing acquisition for €15m from the cash pile, with a minimum €1.25m historic EBITDA given "an EBITDA margin of at least 75%":[link] noting that almost half of the consideration is "contingent on significant growth in performance of the Acquisition", which is encouraging.And perhaps more on the way:"We are seeing good opportunities to buy additional assets in our key verticals, and we plan to continue acquiring domains and websites as part of our ongoing growth strategy."
