Accesso Technology AGM Report

I attended the Annual General Meeting of Accesso Technology (ACSO) this morning (21st May) at their offices west of London. With a 10.00 am start time there were only about ten ordinary shareholders there. This company provides ticketing and queuing systems for theme parks and other visitor attractions. It had a great share price performance under the management of former CEO and then Executive Chairman Tom Burnet (who is still on the board as a non-exec director) until October 2018 when the ...

Accesso (ACSO) AGM 2018

Yesterday I attended the Annual General Meeting of Accesso (ACSO) in Twyford at the somewhat early time of 10.00 am with the result that I got bogged down in the usual rush hour traffic on the M25. Accesso provides “innovative queuing, ticketing and POS solutions” to the entertainment sector (e.g. theme parks) although they have been spreading into other application areas. The business has been growing rapidly under the leadership of Tom Burnet who moved from being CEO to Executive Chairman ...

Accesso Technology Group Plc AGM 2017

Today I attended the annual general meeting of Accesso Technology Group Plc at their offices just outside of Reading at 10am. Accesso technology Group Plc is a UK based company engaged in the development and application of ticketing, mobile and e-commerce technologies. A positive trading statement was released this morning from Accesso, although the statement does give the proviso that: “It is still early in the season and, as is normal, less than 20% of the year has been traded to date”. But the statement ...

Accesso Technology Group Plc (ACSO) AGM 2016

Today I attended the annual general meeting of Accesso Technology Group Plc at their offices just outside of Reading at 10am. Accesso Technology Group Plc is a UK based company engaged in the development and application of ticketing, mobile and e-commerce technologies. Prior to the start I chatted with Chairman John Weston and I questioned if a later start time, even by an hour would make the journey more palatable to shareholders as those 6 that had turned up had various tales of ...

Lo-Q (ACSO) AGM Report 2013

You probably recall the story of the football reporter who was too lazy to attend a match, but still managed to write up the game for his newspaper. Well here’s a report on an Annual General Meeting which I likewise did not attend, not for want of trying. Due to traffic chaos from closure of the M25, I and David Stredder actually arrived about 15 minutes late for the Lo-Q AGM on the 2nd April. By that time the event was over. ...

Lo-Q (ACSO) AGM Report 2012

How pleasant to turn up at company’s offices for an AGM at the reasonable hour of 11.00 am (unlike yesterdays at RM) and find they had thoughtfully cleared the car park of staff cars just for shareholders. Lo-Q has been covered in past ShareSoc newsletters – they provide queuing systems for theme parks. The directors mingled with staff over coffee before the meeting (not even offered at RM). About 10 shareholders attended the meeting. When the meeting commenced the Chairman (John Weston) indicated that general questions would ...
