JD no need to shout ! I am truly not interested in keeping this dialogue going.
Happy to read your posted articles and have thanked you for such ....
Maybe you can just keep any comments you have about me to yourself ?

[james dean] 29/12/2015 21:42

It's an opinion - not being caustic at all.

Not cut and pasting either.

You seem to be minding and not taking fair comments.

Nothing wrong in my brain department either.

[fse] 29/12/2015 21:08

Then you don't have to read it then and you can disengage brain and go back to cut and pasting.

I have no interest in pointless bicker so why don't you just mind your own business and keep you caustic rhetoric to yourself.

[james dean] 29/12/2015 18:39

Yes, I do.

Maybe so but I make a point of watching these very carefully and if you were a little more on the page "so to speak" you would see the small shifts in opportunity to lighten or increase holdings.

At the moment I don't like the short term picture as I feel they are not going to hit estimates in this next reporting period.
Thats probably already factored into the current SP
The share price regularly moves through shorter term 10% to 15% shifts which we see several times through the year and whilst I may be longer term bullish for the company I recognize the constraints and try to make a bit out of the shifts along the way.

Sorry you find that repetitive !

[james dean] 28/12/2015 22:56

I hope they (Batm) change your tune - it is getting somewhat repetitive IMHO.

Happy New Year to all.

Depressing drift down on no volume and no news on earnings and that is where we are stuck for the moment. As I have already commented I do not think they are going to announce any real increase in earnings over this past period.
So in-spite of the encouraging background developments the market just won't buy until the revenue figures are back into growth.
I would also tend to agree that they have delayed reporting hoping to have some contract news to bolster what will probably be another lethargic set of figures.
Its really a rough decision to stay in these as the time frame is just so uncertain. FWIW I currently rate them as a Hold and only a buy for the longer term, they are definitely not a sell.

Merry Christmas ...... I feel they must be waiting for an announcement, otherwise they would have released the numbers by now. Also, can't be bad news as they would have warned by now.
Watching and waiting ......

[fse] 24/12/2015 22:31

Merry Christmas to all. Lets hope we see some positive movement from these in 2016. I am cautiously optimistic ......

Interesting video........

Ariel Efrati, CEO, Telco Systems

A greenfield solution is not likely in most cases, and a hybrid approach is necessary. New capabilities must be able to co-exist with current systems. To deliver the promised new dynamic connectivity services, Telco Systems believes we need to close the loop with OSS and BSS systems – we need to define parameters in OSS and BSS, and then deliver and measure it throughout the network during the lifecycle of the service, not just defining a policy without the ability to enforce it. The ability to measure the real performance of an application, to get into the packet itself when it delivers a service and see how it has performed, is a capability that needs to be exposed to OSS and BSS.

[reeltime] 09/12/2015 19:23

FSE....Yes I agree with your comments, after listening to the video Zvi speaks more confidently about the Medical side of the business than I feel he does with regard to the Telco side. There are ongoing trials that he alludes to re, the Telco arm, so perhaps he is waiting for a contract to be agreed before they release a trading update. We will just have to wait and see.........

[fse] 09/12/2015 15:51

>rt Would be good to get one last year they issued one Nov 19th. Its not really time specific. Zvi indicated all was going to plan on the link JD posted...
My take on the scene here is that it the they are making progress in certain areas but the uptake for business in the Telco arm is lethargic.
They will probably just about hit targets but there are caveats.
Thats almost certainly why the share price is stuck in neutral.
My feeling is cautiously that they have been on the mend for some time but its a slow process....

[reeltime] 08/12/2015 19:37

J D

Thanks for the links.

The trading update is somewhat over due!!!!!

[fse] 07/12/2015 17:16

Good interview with Zvi and it really does appear that they are finally getting some traction with the various projects. it's not going to produce any fireworks just yet but the current share price is starting to look rather cheap IMO
Zvi mentioned the impacts of the surging US$ and the fact they own all their own real estate
From personal experience I agree strongly with this approach and I feel not enough credit is given for this strategy
It's very much as predicted i.e. It's all happening just a bit slower than impatient Mets would like
Thanks to JD for the links much appreciated when on the road

BATM Advanced Communications Limited

("BATM" or "the Group")

Diagnostics joint venture with Gamida group and cyber security contract extension

BATM Advanced Communications Limited (LSE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory systems, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Gamida for Life ("Gamida"), an international group of companies focused on healthcare and life sciences, to establish a joint company, Ador, to progress the development and marketing of a unique, rapid-results molecular diagnostics system. In addition, BATM is delighted to announce that it has been awarded a $1m extension to a previously-announced cyber security contract.

Ador - Joint company with Gamida

Gamida, with headquarters in the Netherlands, is engaged in healthcare-related operations worldwide through a number of holding companies, including a renowned developer of high quality diagnostic kits and systems for the detection of infectious diseases and genetic screening.

Under the terms of the agreement, Adaltis, a wholly-owned diagnostics subsidiary of BATM, and Gamida will invest $1.5m respectively into the joint company, Ador, based on the attainment of defined milestones. Ador will prepare for production, and market, a novel nucleic acids molecular diagnostics platform (NAT), which has been jointly developed by Adaltis and Gamida. Several patents for the new platform have been granted in the US, and more applications are scheduled for next year. The new instrument, and a selection of reagent kits, are expected to reach the market before the end of 2016 - commencing with large European customers.

Marketed under the name 'NATExpert', the new platform allows rapid, fully automated sample-to-answer one-step operation. The new system has the ability to test singular samples for a multitude of diseases. It is compact and mobile, and accepts multiple sample types. A key feature of the system is the combination of reduced testing and 'hands-on' operating time with its high multiplexing technology thereby lowering the cost of diagnostic tests, which the Group believes is a significant competitive advantage.

Cyber security contract extension

As announced on 2 July 2015, BATM, together with Celare, the Group's cyber security subsidiary, was awarded a significant contract as the sole supplier for the delivery of a cyber-security solution to a government defense agency. The Group has commenced supplying the cyber solution, and expects to complete delivery in Q1 2016. The Group has been awarded a further $1m under this contract to develop future platforms and design modifications to broaden the applications. The total contract value to date is approximately $4.7m, which the Group expects to increase to over $10m by 2017.

Dr Zvi Marom, Chief Executive Officer of BATM, said: "We are pleased that our Diagnostics and Cyber business units are demonstrating significant progress and today's announcement is a good indicator of the substantial prospects for our future. In the Diagnostics field, we are winning contracts, and being asked to partner with leading players, because we have the competitive advantage by offering smaller, more advanced diagnostics machines that provide faster, comprehensive and more cost effective results than what currently exist in the market. We look forward to developing more products based on this patented technology and to updating the market in due course.

"We are also delighted to have received an extension to our sole-supply cyber security contract. The trust of this customer in the quality of our solution and their willingness to finance modifications that will enable wider use of the platform gives us great confidence in the strength of our unique offer. With the increasing threat of cyber-attacks, we believe that the demand for our technology will continue to grow and that we will gain several new strategic customers."

Interesting Telco Blog..
The problem with all of this appears to be speed of uptake in the Telco side.
Of course the stated reason for acquiring the medical arm was to smooth out the erratic nature of the Telco supply business. OK I can see that in a way but the Telco side really do need to start gaining meaningful business.
Barring the currency adjustments BATM would have posted a profit last period. I don't expect to see them build much on that but we do need to see them through to actual profit before investor confidence is restored.

Current Analysis: Telco Systems’ CyberGuard app fills security gap
Posted by Talia Rimon on November 16, 2015

At the SDN and OpenFlow World Congress last month, Current Analysis analyst Glen Hunt issued a positive report on Telco Systems CyberGuard App.

The new NFV CyberGuard app consists of network monitoring sensors running on our CloudMetro virtualization platform and an SDN controller running on the EdgeGenie Orchestrator. The NFV CyberGuard solution network sensors gather application level session information and create a database of expected network behavior.

Current Analysis stated that it is positive on the launch of Telco Systems’ NFV CyberGuard, because it addresses an emerging concern regarding how to secure an end-to-end virtualized network.

The report noted that Telco Systems needs to provide differentiated solutions to mitigate the potential threats created by white box platforms that can displace purpose-built equipment. It added that CyberGuard appears to provide a new perimeter security architecture for Telco Systems’ access and aggregation solutions.

Well this time last year we had a trading statement, so hopefully one will be released soon with some positive news to try and stop this gradual decline in the share price....

[fse] 18/11/2015 21:46

These are regrettably getting walked down again on no volume. They are, on background information, too cheap as the price is not reflecting recent announcements.
Its going to take a contract win or a decent set of figures to move them.
Groan !!!!!
