06/3/2017 15:10 | Only just got round to reading Edison's February note, and was particularly interested to see that as well as the entries into augmented and virtual reality, Edison expect to see KWS: - initiate entry into engineering/coding this year as a seventh service line - grow opportunities in the video production industry via streaming services like Netflix and Amazon who have faster production cycles and global distribution akin to the gaming sector - also grow opportunities in online gambling Given the sector fragmentation all of this implies lots of activity and excitement still to come. | rivaldo | |

02/3/2017 15:16 | FYI these are Finncap's conclusions from last month's note issued after the year end trading update: "Today's year-end update is comfortably ahead of revised guidance and confirms an extremely strong FY16, driven by both organic and acquired growth. Thanks to the company's aggressive consolidation strategy, Keywords is now uniquely positioned to capitalise on key trends, namely industry growth, the push to outsource and consolidation of suppliers. We therefore feel confident that the company's strong track record will continue and we upgrade our forecasts accordingly. We move to an out of consensus FY17E adj. PBT of €20.6m, while our target price moves from 500p to 692p and we retain our Buy recommendation." "692p target price – based on 23x FY18 P/E (649p) in addition to 43p/share that we attribute to the group's disposable cash resources which are often used to make earnings accretive acquisitions. Out of the c.€14m of disposable funds, we assume €10m is likely to be utilised by FY18 – prudent considering that €21.7m was invested in FY16 and that Keywords may look to extend its current RCF beyond the €15m which it is at present (less than 1x FY16 EBITDA). Our target price is supported by DCF, suggesting a FV of 690p." | rivaldo | |

20/2/2017 09:40 | New interview with the CEO re the latest acquisition: Http ://www.proactiveinve "Keywords Studios Spov acquisition offers synergies to both companies, says Day 11:11 17 Feb 2017 Andrew Day, chief executive at the video games service provider, talks us through the rationale behind the £1.2mln purchase of Spov, which supplies visual special effects to video games and movies.

Keywords is up 159% over the last 12 months. Analyst Berenberg initiated coverage on the company at the start of this money with a ‘buy’ rating and a 760p price target.
