Kainos Share Discussion Threads

[shanksaj] 05/9/2016 22:43

Small Company Share Watch published this weekend. Kainos not plugged in issue, but other shares plugged big time. Maybe the price drop was because of sufficient numbers of SCSW diving out of Kainos to get funds to dive into other stocks.

It makes sense, though its a bit of a surprise that SCSW readers would make that much difference to the share price.

These go ex dividend 29th September with a payout of 4.2p , so its strange time for the share price to drop like this.

Could be. My bet is folk who bought in at the lows bailing as the rise ran out of steam long ago.

[ddav] 05/9/2016 10:57

Not logic just a mere comment --- could be people set stops close -- who knows?

[tintin82] 05/9/2016 10:23

ddav, is that your logic for the halving of the share price? Just saying. Of course we have all witnessed a tree shake, but the are generally very short lived and end with an abrupt move north, not seeing this here, yet.

[ddav] 05/9/2016 10:00

Its almost like someone wants to shake out a few!

[hazl] 05/9/2016 09:54

well the director purchase back in June keeps me confident.

IMO

[tintin82] 05/9/2016 09:33

Strange one. Things were starting to look positive as it was range trading pretty solid, but now the floor looks like it might have opened again. Really don't know what to make of it.

[dahhad] 05/9/2016 09:31

It certainly needs some positive statements at the forthcoming AGM IMO or we are heading further south!

[rhubarbcrumble] 05/9/2016 09:15

What is wrong with this share?

The EIS results were reassuring.

No adverse news so far as I have seen.

Metrics not too demanding.

Chart diabolical.

Someuwin may have a point, but the market more or less buoyant and we go down!

[basem1] 03/9/2016 11:58

Someuwin post 1525. Thanks for the heads up on TAP. I've made £5k in 3 weeks there. And a lot further to go too, although I have topsliced 50% of my holding.

ECK is a call centre business so of no relevance

[someuwin] 02/9/2016 12:11

ECK down almost 30% today on profit warning due mainly to the 'short term' hit of moving customers from an 'upfront pricing followed by a fixed maintenance and support charge' to a Software-as-a-Service model.

Exactly the same strategy being pursued by KNOS.

Just something to be aware of.

Belfast-headquartered Kainos, which IPO'd last year, is pushing further into the UK healthcare market following the successful implementation of its electronic patient clinical record (ePCR) solution at South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SECAmb) and the launch of a new integrated care platform.Kainos has been in healthcare since launching its document management system Evolve eight years ago and now has some 33 NHS Trusts (100 hospitals) as customers. It didn't appear in our last set of rankings for the UK healthcare SITS market, but it's growing rapidly in health and is not far outside the top 20 with a turnover of c£15m from the sector in its latest fiscal year.AmbulanceNote also that Kainos is one of Apple's mobility partners in healthcare and this was key to its recent win with South East Coast Ambulance Service. SECAmb is using Kainos' Evolve software to capture electronic patient clinical record data at the scene of an incident and share it with receiving hospitals at the A&E department, clinic or ward. Like other trusts, SECAmb was keen to replace paper-heavy processes with digital ones and transform the efficiency of care. The trust's Head of IT, Mark Chivers, said they picked the device first then the software, so Kainos' partnership with Apple was all important. Kainos' app runs on an iPad and works both on and offline.We were also interested to learn that Kainos is bringing a new product, the Evolve Integrated Care Platform, to the UK market. The cloud-based platform is designed to enable GP, community care and acute electronic patient record systems, as well as some hospital departmental systems, to share information with each other and eventually with the patient and their friends and family too.Both these products have a natural fit with government policy and the trends currently shaping the NHS IT market, making Kainos one to watch in the sector in the coming months.

News
South East Coast Ambulance Service to transform patient care with Kainos Evolve®
iPad electronic patient clinical record improves quality, availability and sharability of patient information
08 August 2016
London, 8th August 2016 – Kainos Group plc (KNOS), a leading UK-based provider of IT, consulting and software solutions, has announced the successful go-live of its Kainos Evolve solution with South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SECAmb). Evolve improves patient care by allowing SECAmb clinicians to capture electronic Patient Clinical Record (ePCR) data at the scene of the incident and share it with receiving hospitals at the A&E department, clinic or ward.

The accurate capture and sharing of critical information improves patient care starting at the incident scene. The solution runs on an Apple iPad and works both on and offline. This means that SECAmb clinicians can capture patient information wherever an incident happens. Having up-to-date patient information at their fingertips, often in pressurised emergency situations, helps clinicians make well-informed care decisions quickly.

SECAmb is implementing Evolve to replace a paper-heavy process and transform the efficiency of care at every stage of engagement with patients. Capturing data electronically at the scene of an incident ensures efficient and legible handover to hospital staff on arrival, and up-to-date patient records become available immediately to clinicians anywhere in the Trust, for review and/or auditing. Previously it took up to six weeks to scan, review, store and distribute information from paper forms – with Evolve they are available immediately.

Mark Chivers, Head of IT, SECAmb, commented: “This is an important project for the Trust: not only does it improve patient care quality and efficiency, but it also takes us forward on our mission to be digitally mature. We wanted the perfect solution – no compromises – and to do that we picked the device first. The iPad is intuitive and the clinicians use it not just for ePCR but for messaging, web browsing and more. Additionally, it allows SECAmb to benefit from the inherent security benefits of iOS, so data remains safe wherever our staff need to be. In Evolve, we found the best solution for our needs: it’s an intuitive, easy-to-use app that captures incident information accurately and allows seamless handover to our partner Trusts, helping them streamline care. What’s more, Evolve’s data analysis capability helps to improve our service in the future.”

Steve Topley, Clinical Lead, SECAmb, added: “Providing a hospital with a seamless handover of accurate electronic incident notes makes it quicker and easier for them to provide rapid, focused care. It saves precious time and greatly improves outcomes for patients. And the less obvious benefits are massive – for example, with Evolve’s electronic record there is never any need to waste time trying to decipher cryptic handwriting!”

Richard Barron, Software Developer and Business Analyst, SECAmb, added: “Our clinicians worked closely with the Evolve team to make this project a success. By consolidating four paper forms into one Evolve electronic form, we eliminated duplicate information and now have a joined-up system that works on and off line. This helps reduce overheads and risks associated with paper, and improves the service we provide to our patients.

Brendan Mooney, CEO of Kainos concluded: “Implementing the Evolve ePCR into an Ambulance Service is a crucial step in the evolution of healthcare. As SECAmb integrates more and more with hospitals and other care-facilities, patient care will improve and the efficiency of the whole service will increase. As an Apple mobility partner, this project highlights the value and strength of Evolve’s relationship with Apple. Together, with our customers, we’re delivering solutions that are making a real difference to patient care and outcomes.”

There was a prior post on here about the lack of RNS's. I did drop them (Kainos) a line to ask what they did about updates. I've copied the reply below, it's a bit late as I've been on holiday!

Dear Mr. ,

Thanks for your comments. We use the regulatory news channel (RNS) for regulatory announcements only, and publish other news (such as contract wins) on our website or on our Twitter accounts. You might also want to check on our main website (www.kainos.com) where we publish new items of interest, including our business development activities.
