Cool... Another late buy - 350000 at 4p... Someone is stocking up... 😳

Forscene can be an up sell product.

Blackbird is a core infrastructure base product which can also be licensed technology to other editing manufacturers.
At enterprise level You star with Blackbird encoded Video then you can bring in Cloud based tools like our Viewer, clipper, simple clip editor (captevate like) then up to Forscene then perhaps other companies products if say Avid struck a deal with us.

No past sales Analogy:
Current video editing systems run on diesel ours runs on the new electric concept. Electric has very low sales which seems to concern some investors while others are more excited about the future electric.

All imho

hi chriscallen
until recently it was forscene for business and captevate / eva for b2c and consumer
when aziz departed the focus switched to just b2b using forscene
now iain arrived it has become about blackbird and forscene
blackbird has been a core technology on which other things have been built, notable the platform known as forscene
however blackbird is now marketed as a product in and of itself

[chriscallen] 27/2/2018 14:51

When you talk about the product do you mean EVA, Forscene or Blackbird? I have a small shareholding but I certainly wouldn't sell out Blackbird at 10p and |I doubt Miton would as well.

"It only has any value if a purchaser thinks that they can sell the product"

it only has any sale value if there is a prospect the owners will sell

[paulcon1] 27/2/2018 14:36

Agreed..... It appears(as it stands) that the issue is FBT's ability to sell the product. I would suggest it maybe financial resources which is a factor. I also agree with you that time is critical and options (moving forwards) may diminish ... Good luck with your investment... IMHO

[richard107] 27/2/2018 14:30

It only has any value if a purchaser thinks that they can sell the product . So far no one has bought it apart from a few small one off events so , at present , the value is minimal . Of course a purchaser would not need the huge cost base that FBT have . Having said all that , the crunch is approaching in the next few months . In the abscence of commercial success the company will need to raise more capital which will be difficult

[paulcon1] 27/2/2018 13:38

The Technology still has intrinsic value incidental of FBT's ability to sell it... The question would be 'How much would a company pay for the tech alone' .. £18m seems cheap to me... Maybe I am wrong... GL and IMHO

[nickb] 27/2/2018 13:38

You could not build the technology platform for the current share value.

R&D would cost Tens of millions and years.

[richard107] 27/2/2018 13:13

Why do you say the share price undervalues the technology ? Until it generates worthwhile sales it is surely worthless . So far , all efforts to sell the product have flopped

[nickb] 27/2/2018 12:17

Could be even Trump Tower

Biggly rise soon?

[_m_k] 27/2/2018 11:27

intraday price forming the empire state pattern!!

As we now have precedent....
Can we change the thread title to 'the blackbird snores'?

i must put in a feature request to advfn to be able to change thread titles

[paulcon1] 27/2/2018 10:10

Pump and Dump only works if you buy or sell into it.... The share price at the moment undervalues the technology alone. If this share price was at 10p (Market value £16m) it wouldn't be out of place.... IMHO

[nickb] 27/2/2018 09:55

I hear only positive shareholders will be rewarded.

[bonio10000] 27/2/2018 09:44

Pump and dump

SSB... Keep posting mate, it seems to be working... I will pay you! .... 😂

[sideshowbull] 27/2/2018 08:29

There you go max now 25k @4.19p

[bonio10000] 27/2/2018 08:18

The investor roadshow presentation Main did, shortly after Aziz left, was terrible.That said a lot.

[bonio10000] 27/2/2018 08:17

As we now have precedent....Can we change the thread title to 'the blackbird snores'?

[aimster4400] 27/2/2018 08:05

The major takeaway for us is the comparison of a competent board vs an incompetent board:Avid SACKs their CEO & Chairman but ends the day 0.83 UP! FBT CEO resigns and share price falls 75%. David Main has to go. He clearly isn't capable of being the Chairman. Either that or Investors liked Aziz much more than seems logical. Maybe they knew something we don't.

[sideshowbull] 27/2/2018 08:01

Limits tight as I expected, max you can buy is 15k @ 3.9975p

Should be a good day.
