NewMedia SPARK announces a further investment in (*) ADVFM.com


NewMedia SPARK plc ('SPARK') announces that it has agreed to
exercise its right to subscribe for a further 5m shares in
ADVFM.com PLC ('ADVFM') at the placing price of 10p per
share. SPARK had previously invested £500,000 in  ADVFM at a
price of 5p a share, and this latest investment will
increase SPARK's holding in  ADVFM to 15m shares, acquired at
a total cost of £1m.  ADVFM is shortly to gain an AIM
listing, with initial dealings in  ADVFM shares expected to
commence on 20th March 2000. SPARK's shareholding will
amount to 6% of the issued share capital.

Michael Whitaker, CEO of SPARK, commented:

'It is pleasing to see another of SPARK's investments coming
to the market.  ADVFM's financial portal is growing rapidly
and we are also enthused by the company's 2C data
visualisation technology, which we believe has the potential
to be used on a number of other sites in addition to  ADVFM's
own.  ADVFM is currently in discussions with GlobalNet
Financial.com Inc, Quote.com and Hemmington Scott Limited
with a view to forming strategic relationships. '
