Qonnectis Share Discussion Threads

[gogoneko] 16/7/2009 11:28

Anything not highlighted below represents the usual managerial misplaced optimism - and for those taking comfort in the "Order book building post period", the order book was practically empty to begin with, and the cash has now run out. If QTI has products as good as the literature claims why is virtually NOBODY buying them?:

"Qonnectis plc ('the Company'), the data monitoring service provider for
utilities and major commercial users of energy and water, announces its results
for the six months ended 31 December 2008.


Highlights:
* Leakfrog orders delayed
* New product derivatives developed and ready for sale
* Order book building post period
* New enhancement of logger product ready for launch
* Turnover GBP20,686 (2007: GBP291,281)
* Operating loss GBP405,806 (2007: GBP197,168)
* Loss per share 0.10p (2007: 0.10p)
* Cash balance at period end: GBP304,532 "

Running a modern gas or electric utility or providing meter services, or related service company such as a meter operator or asset manager, is fundamentally about information – how much energy is required, where, when, how much has been used, how much is unaccounted for, how much shall I bill, what information shall I give the customer. Qonnectis provides solutions for all these challenges, providing both improved efficiency with lower costs, together with better customer service.

The fundamental source of this is accurate and timely data. Qonnectis uses state-of-the-art smart meter reading technology in systems that make it easy to communicate with remote utility meters and sensors automatically, and delivers precise meter readings, sensor data and sophisticated monitoring and analysis services. Qonnectis converts remote meter data into utility intelligence for improving energy use in process/operation and reducing costs.

In addition, Qonnectis provides simple and informative access to this information. Its information services mean you have instant access to field information and intelligence, and can pass on that information to your customers in the same way.

The cornerstone of this provision is the Qonnectis Network. This is the first totally integrated, web-based machine-to-machine communications solution that allows a utility or end user to fully automate their meter reading and data collection and access the information via the Internet from customer-branded web sites.

Qonnectis' solutions for energy utilities and operators include:

* monitor their energy network infrastructure and assets to industry-standard 30-minute intervals
* smart metering to easily obtain remote meter reads for accurate billing or from "out-of-area" or other remote sites
* minimise losses such as unaccounted-for energy consumption
* provide their business customers with web access to their energy consumption data and alerts (as a standard service or as a value-added package) to improve the customer relationship
* gain a better understanding of how their customers use energy through profiling and forecasting
* improve customer service and reduce customer queries with branded web sites for customers to access data instantly
* know when something goes wrong with instant SMS and email alerts for pipe bursts, tamper and abnormal consumption
* manage tariffs and introduce new, innovative tariffs based on customer data
* evaluate effectiveness of environmental programmes
* reduce network operation and customer service costs

QTI supply data loggers that monitor standard meters - the smart meters involved in the rollout will replace standard energy meters. The idea that they will get a 30% market share is pure fantasy.

[m8] 16/7/2009 11:08

Ermmm... Who said OTI do not do Smart meters?????

Well here is some news fool. THEY DO.

Qonnectis uses state-of-the-art smart meter reading technology in systems that make it easy to communicate with remote utility meters and sensors automatically, and delivers precise meter readings, sensor data and sophisticated monitoring and analysis services. Qonnectis converts remote meter data into utility intelligence for improving energy use in process/operation and reducing costs.

I suggest that OTI will get @ 30% Market share (conservative figure) of the smart meter roll out by the utilities.

Bglobal plc (AIM:BGBL) the market-leading provider of smart metering services to the UK energy market is pleased to announce that an agreement has been reached with npower to accelerate the introduction of smart meters for their business customers.
During the year to date, Bglobal has installed several thousand smart meters for npower's large corporate energy customers. The early phase of the installation programme has been successful and npower now plans to increase the rate of roll out, combining smart metering with a range of innovative energy services.

The meters referred to on the BBC are smart energy meters. QTI provides a data logger (swift,istaq) which monitors standard water and energy meters and leakfrog which attaches to standard water meters - i.e. they are not suppliers of smart meters and have no role to play in the smart energy meter rollout....

Letter of Intent Signed with Primary Water




The Board of Qonnectis plc ("Qonnectis"), the data monitoring service provider
for utilities and users of energy and water, announces that it has signed a
letter of intent with Primary Water PLC ("Primary Water") under which Primary
Water will be able to evaluate Qonnectis products and commence trials with a
view to progressing business plans and proposals for the distribution of
Qonnectis products into various territories.


It is expected that a three year distribution agreement will be signed giving
Primary Water exclusivity to distribute Qonnectis products into Australia and
Russia, and all other countries worldwide excluding the UK, Ireland and China on
a non-exclusive basis. The distribution agreement will be subject to minimum
sales volumes and will include joint funding of specific product development.


During the evaluation phase Qonnectis will receive a fee for providing the test
units. All data generated by Primary Water will be shared with Qonnectis whilst
the intellectual property rights remain with Qonnectis.


The agreement covers the Leak Frog, Swift, MyMeter technologies and associated
products.

Perhaps you can enlighten us ddlooker on how QTI will take advantacge and capitalise on this market expansion.

Ruppert, Capital Ideas plc sold their holding in Primary Water plc last year look at page 3 of Capitals recent results.

[inside2] 15/7/2009 18:20

Not too sure about that Rupert, however there is little to really go on to make an informed judgement on Primary Water plc. Though following on from QTI's experience with Halma I wouldn't risk my money.

[rupert the bear] 15/7/2009 17:50

The "devious plot" is to get numpties like you to buy this crock of Sh1t.

Anyone with half a brain cell can see that the letter of intent is worthless as it comes from a company with 1 employee, no cash, no balance sheet, a history of losses and links to people with a history of misleading investors (eg Haddow).

[ddlooker] 15/7/2009 17:33

toad why do you think they issued the rns yesterday about the letter of intent?

Do you think it was a devious ploy?

If so what is this devious plot?

[toad6] 15/7/2009 16:16

Because I follow the stock each day and regularly hold positions in the stock, sometimes long, sometimes short. Is that OK by you? Your post doesn't make sense "does that mean you hold QTI shares?" ..."If so why the hell don't you get out like a proverbial rat?" I presume you mean if not?

[onbendedkneees] 15/7/2009 15:55

You keep stating "we're", toad.
Does that mean you hold QTI shares?
If so why the hell don't you get out like a proverbial rat?
If you don't hold why the hell are you bothering to post on this thread?

[toad6] 15/7/2009 14:50

SAGEM, have you not been listening to ddlooker and mhw, everything is brilliant, funding is just around the corner, the RNS says so and the shareprice is going to fly and then we're off down the yellow brick road...
