Millair,

It could be but you'd be very brave to take the plunge. They say funds are short and a fund raising in Feb/March 2010 may be required.

They had sales of around £500k last year and made losses of nearly £2 million. This business has a massive amount to do to justify it's market cap. I run a socks and underwear retail web site with sales not much less than these guys yet we have very few staff and I see us as a minnow in a sea with thousands of more significant sites.

Below is a recap of their fundraisings, taken from the most recent results.

Fundraising


During the year, the Company raised additional funding through a placing and a
loan, both of which are described below. These have resulted, before costs, in a GBP1.4 million increase in the Company's cash resources. Since the year end a
further GBP0.9 million has been secured.

Placings
In October, Adili completed a placing to raise approximately GBP360,000 before
expenses through the issue of 6,596,350 new ordinary shares at a price of 5.5p
per share. The net proceeds were used to fund the Company's growth and for
working capital purposes. The new shares issued were admitted to trading on AIM
on 7 October 2008.
In April, Adili completed a further placing raising approximately GBP349,000
before expenses through the issue of 11,633,500 new ordinary shares at a price
of 3p per share. The net proceeds were used to fund the immediate working
capital requirements of the company. The new shares issued were admitted to AIM
on 16 April 2009.
In August, Adili completed a placing to raise approximately GBP940,000 before
expenses through the issue of 62,666,666 shares at a price of 1.5p per share.
The proceeds will fund working capital and continuing growth, which the
directors believe will take the company to cash breakeven.




Convertible Loan Facility
On 2 October, The Company entered into a secured convertible loan facility for
approximately GBP640,000 with its largest shareholder, Hawk Investment Holdings
Limited ("Hawk"). Hawk, following the placing on 2 October, was interested in
29.95% of the Company's issued share capital. The loan converted into equity,
when the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers granted a waiver of any obligation on
Hawk to make an offer for the Company and independent shareholders gave their
approval at the AGM on 28 November. Following the conversion, Hawk was
interested in approximately 48.5% of the Company's issued share capital.

Share price nearly halved in the last few days. Only a matter of time before these delist IMHO.

Considering people on this board, well certain people slate ASC, they as ever are performing well unlike ADIL. I don't hold either.

Adili has a mention in 'Shares Magazine' today.

Commenting on the Christmas results, "The average transaction was at £40, somewhat higher than other online retailers such as ASOS, reflecting the group's attractions for conscience-stricken buyers. Although, the Company has sought to widen its ranges, womenswear still accounts for some 60% turnover.

Analysts at Edison believes that the group will lose £1m this year and £700,000 next year, and have tipped it to move into the black during 2009/10.

Shares says: Currently capitalised at £4.4m the shares are clearly speculative. However, their organic credentials mean that they are subject to less price pressure than other retailers."

Dasein,

"But you are right, an acorn is what I seek :)) Don't we all ?"

Check out EBTM, if not already done so. Another Quentin Griffiths online retail company but two years ahead of Adili in growth and potential. Hopefully, 2008 will be its 'breakthrough' year. Still a 5p share but with huge upside.

Dasein,

The problem with Adili is it's still a tiny business - barely a cottage industry!

2006 (28 days leading upto 21st Dec): 13 orders gained a day - 30 items shipped a day.

2007 ( " " " ): 37.5 orders a day - 84 items shipped a day.

So, 'up by 388 per cent' from the previous year is a little misleading. Just imagine all those other cottage industries out there, selling a hell of a lot more over Christmas. They would laugh if someone suggested they should float on AIM. "With what?!" might be one possible answer.

I appreciate many successful businesses have grown from an acorn, but do you want your money to be invested in a Company which still has such a long way to go and so much still to prove?

Why not invest in an online retail company like ASOS, which has already proven itself; is growing at an exponential pace; and whose share price still has a long way to go.

Adili, in my view, is a company to watch and patiently wait.

Stumbled accross this one while researching ASOS, but decided against ASC because of this comment by the CEO ...which strikes me as a tad arrogant and a bit ratnerish (but also because I missed the boat and it seems overpriced at the moment)

"Next year we'll reintroduce affiliate marketing but as it should be, as opposed to affiliates as they were" said Nick Robertson, ASOS CEO. "(There'll be) no silly commissions being paid to grubby little people in grubby studios growing income at our expense, getting in the way of genuine sales"

as opposed to

" Jessica provides a rare and invaluable set of skills to online retailers. Her contribution to the marketing team in the formative years of ASOS.com, and her subsequent work with e-retail plc, has proved her carefully thought through approach to affiliate marketing works, and withstands the test of time..."
Quentin Griffiths


ASOS comments Haven't gone down too well in the afilliate marketing world which is pretty small..and noticed that Adilli seem to have taken advantage

Heres a nice article on potential potential market


"Our supermarket aisles bulge with organic food. The Notting Hill set snap up fair-trade knitwear from People Tree and organic baby clothes from Gossypium. Being green helps "grubby capitalists" feel more virtuous, claims James Delingpole, author of How to be Right: The Essential Guide to Making Lefty Liberals History. "If you wear your green heart on your sleeve at a dinner party, no one is going to question you. It provides you with a moral get-out-of-jail-free card. One: you are a nice person. Two: if you want to get on in politics, it's a very good tactic, as Dave Cameron and his lot have discovered. And three: there is so much money to be made."

but as Malkie an others have pointed out, small..but growing market (and very valid comments on the brand issue although fairtrade/eco is a growing brand..of sorts imo and strong lasting brands have a history of originating in the middle classes)



"Household expenditure on ethical goods and services has almost doubled in the past five years according to the eighth Co-operative Bank Ethical Consumerism Report published today (30 November).

The Report, which acts as a barometer of ethical spending and boycotts in the UK, shows that last year, on average, every household in the UK spent £664 in line with their ethical values compared with just £366 in 2002, an increase of 81 per cent.

However, whilst the overall ethical market in the UK is now worth £32.3 billion a year, up nine per cent from £29.7 billion in the previous 12 months, it is still a small proportion of the total annual consumer spend of more than £600 billion.

The annual household expenditure includes £190 on ethical food and drink, such as fair trade and organic. Fairtrade sales grew by 46 per cent, driven, in part, by increased consumer awareness of the FAIRTRADE Mark, which is now recognised by almost three in five, and greater availability of Fairtrade products.

Interestingly, 2006 also saw the emergence of a significant number of consumers claiming to avoid budget clothing outlets on the basis that low cost is taken as a likely indicator of poor supplier labour conditions. Sales of ethical clothing increased by 79 per cent. "



August 17 2007, London, UK. Nearly half (45%) of Britain's consumers do not believe the claims made by high street fashion stores about their ethical credentials, according to the latest findings from TNS Worldpanel Fashion.

Despite this scepticism towards retailers, TNS saw a significant rise in the number of shoppers appreciating the importance of ethical production in its annual ethical clothes report – some 28.4 million consumers felt ethics were an important factor in their choice of clothing and footwear, equivalent to 59% of the population.

Young consumers tend to be less cynical about retailer's ethical claims, with only 34% doubting the legitimacy of ethical practices. However, under 25's are also the least likely to buy ethical fashion; whilst a significant 54% claim it's important to them in theory, 6 in 10 admit they buy the clothes they want without caring how they are produced. Consumers aged over 55 are the most likely to consider ethical issues before purchasing, as well as being the most sceptical about claimed ethics, some 34% of older consumers will look at the country of origin before buying clothes.

Ethical issues are more critical to women than men: 63% of women say it's an important consideration compared to 54% of men. In addition, women are more likely to be attracted to stores that promote ethical clothing and 32% of women say there are clothing brands or retailers they would never buy for ethical reasons.

Consumers believe the most significant factor for an item to be considered 'ethical' is that no sweatshops or child labour were involved in the production, with 70% of consumers saying this was very important. 'A fair price paid to the producer' and 'no environmental damage caused' were the second and third most important factors respectively. Shoppers rate the use of organic materials to be the least important factor in ethical wear, with just 15% of consumers saying this was very important.


interesting comments on the board so far, and I also have not decided yet ...but watching with interest.. if it follows the asos model plenty of time to get on board.

relishing,

I presume it's for the middle classes who buy organic food at 'Sainsbury'. The new agers don't have two pennies to rub, so I can't see who else?

I got involved with QGs first company 'E-retail'. The share price went up briefly. Then came down and eventually ended up as EBTM. The best thing for it.

My concern is that there aren't enough 'ethical' people out there with the money to make this a viable success.

As the cynic would say. 'I have always had a soft spot for ethical people... Romney Marsh!' :)

An interesting interview with Quentin Griffiths.
