    In accordance with the requirements of Euronext Amsterdam, Sopheon plc
    ('Sopheon') issues its trading update for the third quarter of 2005. The third
    quarter is traditionally quiet in the software industry, but the value of
    Sopheon's new sales orders taken during the quarter significantly exceeded the
    equivalent period in 2004, and was broadly equal to the total new sales
    achieved in the first six months of 2005. During the third quarter, including
    extensions, Sopheon signed eight license sales and four proof of concept
    engagements, in addition to several incremental consulting assignments from
    existing clients.

    In our results statement for the six months to 30 June 2005, we identified
    seven license opportunities as larger and more complex than the historic
    average. Of these, two have now concluded in a license order (included in the
    total count of eight for the quarter) and four are engaged in proof of concept
    activities. One of these has already contracted for its license, subject to an
    acceptance decision in the fourth quarter. The seventh opportunity remains in
    contract negotiations; this is also one of three opportunities carried forward
    from the second quarter, of which the other two have concluded in a license
    order.

    The volume of service revenues continues to show momentum in conjunction with
    license sales and proof of concept activity. As indicated in our interim
    statement, we have continued to develop our partnerships to expand our
    implementation capacity and to act as a source of introductions to potential
    new customers. During the period we formed relationships with three leading
    consultancies in product development, each with an international footprint.
    Further details will be announced in due course. In addition, to support both
    current needs and anticipated growth, we have recruited a senior IT executive
    to lead service delivery in Europe. Amit Eitan has 26 years experience in
    leading international IT organizations, and will be based in our offices in
    Maastricht.

    Initial findings from our research into the application of our European
    Accolade-based healthcare solution into the US market have been positive. We
    are now considering how best to achieve progress in this area without
    disrupting activities in our core vertical markets.

    The recent sales have led to good revenue growth over the first and second
    quarters of 2005, however a proportion of the revenues deriving from these new
    sales will not be booked until next year. Nevertheless, Sopheon has
    demonstrated renewed commercial progress in the third quarter, and at the date
    of this report, visibility of 2005 revenues stands at £4.1 million, which is
    95% of the revenues recorded in 2004. Visibility includes new orders, recurring
    maintenance streams, and contracted license revenues conditional on acceptance
    decisions. It does not include potential license sales to other customers under
    proof of concept, which along with several other new license opportunities, are
    being closely pursued for closure before year end. Our reported performance
    remains sensitive to the timing, value and profile of individual sales events.
    However the fourth quarter is typically a busy one for software businesses and
    this was certainly true for Sopheon in 2004. Our sales teams are focused on
    active pipelines with substantial sales potential, and are working hard to
    close out the final months of 2005 with strong momentum.

    Sopheon's Chairman, Barry Mence said:

    'Sopheon's third quarter sales performance has been higher than the seasonal
    norm and this return to growth, together with our pipeline of potential
    business for the final quarter of 2005, gives us confidence that we will have a
    strong finish to the current year.'

    Aanzienlijk meer nieuwe orders voor Sopheon


    AMSTERDAM (ANP) - Softwarebedrijf Sopheon heeft in het derde kwartaal flink meer nieuwe opdrachten gekregen. Het aantal nieuwe orders was gelijk aan de nieuwe opdrachten in de eerste helft van dit jaar.
    Dat liet Sopheon donderdag weten. De teller van de omzet voor dit jaar staat volgens Sopheon nu op 4,1 miljoen pond. Dat is 95 procent van de omzet over vorig jaar. Het bedrijf verwacht traditioneel veel van het vierde kwartaal. "We rekenen op een sterke afsluiting van dit jaar", aldus bestuursvoorzitter Barry Mence.

    Dit zijn toch geen 3e kwartaalcijfers ?
    Scherp opgemerkt yellow3: het is een kwartaal 'update'. Stond ook bovenaan het bericht. Goede update trouwens. Weinig PR praatjes, goede feitelijke weergave en iedereen weet hoe Sopheon er voor Q4 voor staat lijkt me: goed dus. Netjes na de H1-dip.

    Wel een update zonder cijfers. Zegt dus allemaal helemaal noppes. Feit blijft dat 6 miljoen omzet tot nu toe geen beurswaarde van 40 miljoen kan vertegenwoordigen. Dus ik zou adviseren om te verkopen op 0,34 ct.
    Gelukkig slaan beleggers adviezen van analisten in de wind

    Lijkt me logisch, is gewoon een goede update. Het toont aan dat de Accolade software goed aanslaat in de markt. Buiten de klant mededelingen, zijn ook het aantal partners/resellers niet onbelangrijk. Dit aantal is ook weer toegenomen.
