Nobody noticing this share slowly moving up each day, and about to brake out to the north

New placing, no clear reason why. Trouble with company is that they appear to put through costs unevenly through the P&L so the 2nd half earnings are always down on higher turnover. I can only assume it's the directors awarding themselves performance bonuses. Tried to confirm but didn't get an answer.Also all these trails in the UK appear to have come to nothing having contacted both water companies in question. There are other players out there that are selling into the water companies.Having said all that I expect good figures from the US leak detection business.

WATER WATER EVERYWHERE !

WATER INTELLIGENCE WATR.L
hxxp://www.waterintelligence.co.uk

mid price 48p
shares in issue 9.64m
market cap £4.7m

I came across this very small company recently and it looked like it may be an interesting proposition for investment.I would welcome any comments regarding the company from holders or otherwise.

Water Intelligence describes itself as "leading environmental services and technology company focused on detecting, finding and remediating water leaks."
I doubt anyone would disagree that water is an invaluable resource and thats where my interest in this company began.
Water intelligence was formed with the reverse takeover of qonnectis by american leak detection in 2010. Qonnectis was a loss making company near collapse before the takeover but i understand ADL were looking over qonnectis for a few months to use their technology.

The company currently has 3 divisions comprising of
1. American leak detection - which is the largest of the divisions and is the companies bread and butter operations. It is americas only mationwide leak detection company.It finds and repairs leaks using non-invasive technology(ouch) using the latest electronic equipment.The advantages are that this is time saving and creates less damage during repair. In fact the company's slogan is "leak detection without destruction".

2. qonnectis - This division describes itself as providing managed services to water and utility companies. It is involved in data monitoring, data analysis and storage. Smart metering seems to be a growth area and the company uses this technology to serve its customers. Current customers include thames water, scottish water, London fire brigade and NHS hospitals. This division claims that it can save 5-15% through monitoring. Currently "leakfrog" is its latest offering for water companies wishing to monitor their customers for leaks and could provide the further growth that the company is after. more details on its website hxxp://www.waterintelligence.co.uk/the-qonnectis-network/.

3.target leak detection - the website says that the uk office is closed which initially seems a concern. In the year end 2012 there is no mention of target leak detection but reference is made to Water Intelligence concentrating efforts to grow its american arm so it looks like this part of the business is shelfed for now. I am awaiting a definitive response from the company on this issue.

Some latest numbers

half year 2013
EPS $0.04
revenue £3.53m
profit $0.61m


There was good growth of eps, rev and profit before tax in the first half of this year compared to last half year and last full year. I see forecast of 5p for the year 2013 and the forecast for 2014 is 5.5p.
There is currently no dividend paid by the company.

The debt has been reduced and is currently $2.54m which is worth keeping an eye on but going the right way. Cash reserves of $0.77m at last results.
I was concerned initially with the current ratio of 0.78 last year but this has increased to 1.00 which isnt great but is typical of this type of services company.Clearly things are improving so this micro cap may well have a good future.


conclusions-

-this company could surprise on the upside this year after a good set of half year
-sales of "leapfrog" could drive earnings forward in the USA
- a new insurance related channel has been opened which I hope would have a good take up and drive sales.
-scalable model in usa planned to be rolled out in EU , UK and Asia in coming years.

Recent share performance has been good since results with shares up nearly 50%. It might be one to watch and buy on weakness. Although the shares are illiquid I managed to initiate a small position recently. I would possibly add again should the opportunity be presented.

I bought 10000 shares in web orator.com for £3000 in june 2000 which are now watered down to 8 shares in water intelligence worth about £2.40.
How's that for an investment?

[lessismore2] 16/8/2011 18:16

finished unmoved in negative territory on the day with some upside expected next sessions on thin trade now that numbers having been released leading to a lifting of the suspension moratorium imposed in June. with a bid offer spread of 28 35 far too wide for any meaningful trading but long positions worth a try.

[lessismore2] 16/8/2011 16:35

some volume today.

[lessismore2] 16/8/2011 16:10

Hargreaves Lansdown have been offering these @20K packets on a tight spread price firming up from negative 15.5% downside. With the new appointed director he will be seen to be buying to wave the flag Has anyone had difficulty buying these as HL are flexible but TDW tight 29-31p

Well I reckon this company has got some cracking products, and with the international market it ought to do pretty well. And yes I did just buy some shares this morning!

[sandspider2000] 08/11/2010 12:00

I see that Terry Tyrell owns 3.24% of the company, so he must have some belief in it...
