Sorry to all those that would like to take a quick profit, but I'm still hoping they will keep their own ship sailing, even if it takes a little longer to get into port. As I've said before they don't seem to be reckless, bad or deceitful at what they're doing or how they report it, which in a small company is a rare thing in my experience, so let them keep going and hope for the best as far as I'm concerned.

If they are taken out it will have to be an offer of 350p plus.

[broadwood] 23/3/2016 16:56

Medium to longer term , they would likely perform better as an independent company.

[gswredland] 23/3/2016 16:55

They are also a takeout target!

[hotfinance14] 23/3/2016 11:59

With profits to increase by approx. £10m per year with the government contract you wont see me selling.

[hotfinance14] 23/3/2016 09:20

They will continue to go up...350p easy by year end.

[wolansm] 23/3/2016 09:07

Fab sold a few and they go up 😸😻👦

[gswredland] 22/3/2016 18:41

Let's hope so!

[broadwood] 22/3/2016 15:26

Nice tick up today so far. Will it hold?

[wolansm] 19/3/2016 10:39

Hot sold a few thousand this year, as need to take gains had far too many take a look at 88e that where some the cash went, I am in at various levels

0.5p to 3.7p average around 1p these could fly much much much further oil is my game shorterm target 6p and will start selling potential 30p but do some research last time I was this confident it was with gbg and bought in a lot over a few years.

You are right. The hope is that this could produce an extra £10m profit pa in next 18 months but could grow into something considerably bigger. The potential figures are big but too early to predict with any great certainty.

Looks like a big contract.

The day has arrived.




GBG's CitizenSafe(R) Goes Live as Part of GOV.UK Verify

GBG (AIM: GBG), the specialist in identity data intelligence, announces the launch of CitizenSafe(R), its citizen identity verification service, which has today gone live as part of the UK government's GOV.UK Verify service.

GOV.UK Verify enables UK citizens to prove who they are online such that they can have quick and secure access to government services, for example filing tax returns, managing pensions, claiming redundancy pay or viewing and sharing driving licence details. Findings from a new YouGov survey, commissioned by GBG, revealed that 81 per cent of UK citizens expect to be able to gain instant access to key government services online.

As one of just six organisations currently live on the GOV.UK Verify service, GBG's CitizenSafe will help transform the way UK citizens access government services, reducing the initial verification process from several days to around 10 minutes, significantly reducing the cost of each application to the government. In addition to operating as a standalone platform, CitizenSafe will also power the Royal Mail's identity assurance service on GOV.UK Verify.

As part of the current 'Procurement 2' phase of GOV.UK Verify, providers are required to meet much more stringent standards for identity verification, business continuity and usability. GBG is one of the first partners to meet these enhanced standards, having developed a system that can handle multiple data providers and sources, including credit data, to maximise match rates and enhance security.

The combined initial value of the contracts to all GOV.UK Verify partners will be GBP150m but this is expected to grow over the next 5 years as increasing numbers of UK citizens are authenticated to access government services online. GDS predicts that savings will rise to GBP1.7 billion each year following the next General Election, greatly helping to reduce the government's deficit and improve the UK economy.

The launch of CitizenSafe allows UK citizens full access and use of the service as part of a public beta test of the GOV.UK Verify service. The full launch of GOV.UK Verify is expected to be in April 2016.

Richard Law, CEO of GBG commented: "We are delighted that UK citizens can now benefit from our CitizenSafe verification service. We are confident this will help transform the way in which UK citizens access government services, making them as easy to use as online banking - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our work with GOV.UK Verify highlights the leading position of the UK in delivering government services online, providing a robust model for other countries around the world

Good to see the share price rising again. I still expect 300p in H116.

This year we should also see turnover exceed £65m and the dividend at 2p per share.

[skanking] 28/1/2016 16:06

Interesting interview with Richard Law (nice chap too it seems)

[wolansm] 21/1/2016 09:25

The drop has nothing to do with the global effect of an extremely low barrel and of course the drop in price on every share....... I sense an opportunity to pick up a few..... These in my opinion will rise

[chasbas] 21/1/2016 09:23

sorry, report published at 252p

[chasbas] 21/1/2016 09:22

Finncap 30 page report dated 23.10.2015 has target price of 290p (they are corporate broker)...says "admittedly well rated" at 252p...bullish report obviously

[eastbourne1982] 19/1/2016 20:47

I wouldn't touch these at anywhere near the current level, still waiting for someone to have a go at justifying the valuation, not too much to ask is it.

[stig2] 19/1/2016 18:29

Your all pockets to bag some shares if they drop a bit more :-) but I'm not too worried as this is pretty much normal behaviour for us GBG old timers. Not after a bun fight though, so can we just agree that GBG is lucky to be worth 10p on a good day and leave it at that :-)
