To participate or not - would it be foolish to take up their kind offer?

[loveandmoney1] 10/3/2017 07:39

mick wont be happy.

[bigbigdave] 10/3/2017 07:29

Placing aside results read very well and a very promising outlook.

[loveandmoney1] 10/3/2017 07:15

[samenic] 10/3/2017 07:07

Placing !!!!

[tradermick1] 09/3/2017 16:10

Bit oversold atm, this was chased up again to 8.5p bid last week so beats me why somebody woudl bail at 7.08p as others will buy this dip

Here is some food for thought. The link is below. To highlight my point specifically I quote the part detailing the world record. 46 minutes from recording to a song finished and on sale. I would think many artists would like to take longer, editing and playback? But here it is:

Quote. 'We did the Live8 download which was a world record creating event. It was the fastest time a song had been performed on stage, recorded and sold. We helped Universal and got the world record, which was 46 minutes from the time that Paul McCartney and U2 performed Lonely Hearts Club Band to the time it was actually sold.' Ben Drury, 7Digital.

Could do with a return to volumes and of course a blue day. Hoping for that rns

340,000 shares traded and 6.5% fall. Illiuid not the word but works both ways

[s34icknote] 07/3/2017 12:00

Good support coming in

[tiger60] 07/3/2017 08:01

I think it was a punter who couldnt get a quote for 100,000 who then put the order through 'at best' and got screwed, but it distorted the whole days trading. Good to see the market working efficiently! Anyway onwards and upwards.

[11smith] 07/3/2017 00:44

The trade at 7.209p is interesting. It could be a director buying. The same thing happened during the last round of director buying - some unusually low trades reporting as sells, then the next morning an RNS - director buying.

[tradermick1] 06/3/2017 22:39

A couple of people really panicked today selling way below the bid the mm's love that.

[tiger60] 06/3/2017 16:20

Hmmm down 10% on tiny volumes. The quoted price was overstated all day.

MQA: A Canvas of The Future



'MQA is the proposed advancement in digital formats we’ve been waiting for since the ‘90s. MQA will sound different. Mostly due to the way it’s sampled; with less smear, less ringing and digital artifacts. If it’s not one, it’s a zero. That feature alone, saves gobs of room in the encoding process, while providing a dead quiet and dark background upon which the music will stand tall. Seemingly louder, but probably not. Could this be the perfect canvas needed to finally put an end to the loudness wars? I think so.

That above impression being said, I would say it’s safe to say that MQA can and probably will be better than the original releases of many titles that suffered impairments offered by recording equipment of the early days and later day digital distribution process, all of this to the health of audible realism. This is what digital was always meant to be if it was going to compete with analog in any serious fashion.

Standard MQA recordings (green dot) for the most part will be indistinguishable from their fellow hi-res brethren as it’s concerned to mastering (which is a feat considering the condensed delivery system), but whereas MQA Studio recordings (blue dot) become really exciting is the point where the re-mastered or “correctly mastered“ recordings become the best version available on the market. Needless to say I’m a fan.

Now Meridian just has to carefully place MQA in the market without crashing and burning like so many formats that have come before it. I hope they stick the landing.'

[tiger60] 06/3/2017 10:22

That sell hasnt helped.

[pet lover] 06/3/2017 08:14

They must have had new wins as they were working on just one MQA project at the time of the last results.(SEPTEMBER 16)

By January it was A NUMBER

That number could be up to 5 or 6

[tiger60] 06/3/2017 08:11

Thanks. I saw some of those numbers but without contract length it is hard to pro rata the amounts on an annual basis. I expect the upfront fees are amortised over the contract length rather than taken straight to pnl. added to the recurring income we are still only set for 800,000 operating profit, maybe net profit 160,000. The existing contracts seem to just aboout cover fixed costs. We need new wins but there does seem to be some momentm here.

[11smith] 05/3/2017 20:54

I hope I can help. Most of the info you require is in the RNS announcements as set out below. The trading updates provide enough information in my opinion. Take a look at ...(quotes direct from the published announcements)

30.03.2016 During the first quarter of 2016, 7digital reached agreements with 5 new clients: Global Radio, i.am+, Red Bull Media House, Klassik Radio and Mus. Together, these contracts have a cumulative lifetime value of £3.6m.

19.06.2016. Half year report. Contracts signed during the first half with a cumulative lifetime deal value of £4.7m, compared to £4.2m for the whole of 2015

17.01.17 Year end trading update. During Q4 2016, 7digital was awarded contracts with a combined value of approximately £1.6m, including set up fees and monthly recurring revenues, with growth coming both from new customer wins and from existing customers to whom 7digital is providing additional services.

The other announcements of individual contract wins do not provide figures - note the RNS's concerning Musical.ly and update on Wlll.I.am (05.05.2016), Worldwide Radioplayer and update on CDiscount (10.10.2016) and Grandpad (19.09.2016).

Tiger60.

The reason is, you need proof, like a jury.

I think your get that in the next two years

The Numbers you crave for is what we all want but when they are known, down the line, your not get the shares at today's valuation.

Might like to look at my other stock based on the same criteria.

28P this time two years ago. Hit a High of £2.60P on Friday.

You do take a chance buying before the crowd but rewards can be substantial.

[tiger60] 05/3/2017 18:14

appreciate the reply but it is the same old info in my opinion, no working numbers, no forecasts but I also appreciate its not your job! I hold and hope for the best rather than gaining a high level of confidence from available evidence. This is an investment initially based on trading volumes and charting.

Just looking for the numbers... l know 7dig and mqa have close links

A finish above 9p this week and the gamble maybe landed and risk reward ratio enticed me in.

[pet lover] 05/3/2017 18:08

I hope that demonstrates the extremely close links 7dig / MQA ( partners )

[pet lover] 05/3/2017 17:07

Yep I will try.

Half of 7Dig revenues are recurring today that is set to grow.

7Dig'S new Hi Res streaming services will provide the growth with "A NUMBER" due to be launched this year.

MQA has not got staff to license its product it's not their business so years ago they partnered with 7Dig look back at old news items.

Next week MQA and 7Dig are talking at the same event same time in the same room.

That shows just how close the relationship is.

Costs have been slashed

The IT spend is falling

Margins are growing fast 7% on old downloads being replaced with 80% streaming licensing contracts.

Then this after 8.5 minutes MR Cole a year ago.

[tiger60] 05/3/2017 15:44

Yes but you are very vague in adequately explaining the revenue coming 7dig's way.

You mention spotify and mqa but how is that revenue generating for 7dig? Mqa is not propriety of 7dig. Nothing about mqa is 'owned' by 7dig. We are a licencing partner, b2b model.

Yes the adoption of mqa as an industry standard would by association aid 7dig but your posts concentrate on the industry picture rather than for 7dig itself. There are no financial predictions, no clear monthly income forecasts that i can see.

Can you clarify the 'high margin recurring income' in numbers or forecasts or by contract?
