Well if their Interim Accounts are anything to go by for 2007 they are looking at a pretax profit of -16.3M USD. The filed pretax profit for year ending 2006 was -11.54M USD, in fact I can't as yet see any point where they have made money.
And still the share price continues to phall. I haven't done an accurate calculation, but a quick glance of trades so far today show something in the region of £500 000 worth of shares dumped back onto the market. Shorter's seem to be jumping in now, there was just a trade for 9k shares at £164k.
[Edit]
Just done a quick set of sums and so far something like 67512 shares have dumped on the market since trading started this morning. At the current mid price of 1775 thats a staggering 1.19M GBP worth of dumped shares in just 6 hours. It will actually be higher than that because most of the sells were between 1775 and 2050 but I chose the mid price to be phair.
