Ilika Share Discussion Threads

[phil2003] 03/5/2024 20:40

For a company (Ilika) that have just agreed their involvement in the UK’s largest next generation battery factory, have a key product that has achieved li-ion parity and have, as of last week, signed a collaboration agreement with an international £300B turnover group (Tata).. the traded volume is, quite frankly, pathetic..

I can only keep my money sleeping here for so long
Wakey, wakey PR team & sleepy directors

This will go to sleep for a while now

Bikwik.. lol.. he sounded like Bob Harris’s camp brother to me 😕..
“Thanks Graeme, Good to learn more about ilika.. so next on Director talk and whistle test.. we have Bill Withers with an emotional take on his classic “Ain’t no sunshine”

Anyway…

I notice that he called the cash inflow "revenue".
Revenue, in my book, is sales, or if you are a property company, then rents. Are grants revenue?
I'm no accountant and he might strictly be correct...but somewhat misleading imo.

Oh dear.
How to make an exciting journey into the dullest of trudges.
Zero information and duller than ditchwater.
GP...Superbore.

Let's just say this is classic UK company competing in a global market with potentially world beating tech but limited funds and ambition. Then again there was ARM

To be a shareholder here you have to believe that the company is working on ground-breaking science, which is further advanced that any of the many, well-financed, international firms that are trying to do the same thing.

Maybe it is, and will make you a fortune.

Or maybe the directors are happy to keep applying for more grant money from Government quangos who have our cash to dole out and are run by people with comfortable jobs who are never asked about the success rate of their operations...because that's not the point.

I wish you luck.

The lack of confidence might be due to the fact that 10 years after floating on AIM the company has generated virtually no commercial revenue. I'm a believer but to date it's been a very poor investment

Seems positive news but share price only ticked up 0.5p?? Even on seemingly good news there's no confidence in the market for ILIKA for some reason that escapes me.

Looks like Goliath will be the chosen solid state battery for tata agratas in Somerset factory.
Probably take a big stake in Ilika at some point.

[phil2003] 26/4/2024 16:12

Interesting…

Latest Goliath collaborator, Agratas (Tata’s global battery business based in India and UK) is holding its first community events with local residents in Somerset, inviting everyone who lives locally to meet the team behind Britain’s biggest battery cell manufacturing facility.

[robertspc1] 26/4/2024 12:01

Usual jam tomorrow stuff on the webinar. APC grant probably next big event in a few months time

[robertspc1] 26/4/2024 09:16

Agratas joins the Goliath team. They obviously want to take a closer look at the technology. Maybe the perfect long term partner and investor, but early days

[rogk] 26/4/2024 03:01

Confident or stupid

[phil2003] 25/4/2024 20:19

That answers the long shakedown question.. £160,000 buy ordered got filled today at 29p.. Someone is confident

[robertspc1] 25/4/2024 16:42

Be interesting to see if they address any of my tough questions tomorrow

[robertspc1] 24/4/2024 23:48

Goliath way behind my expectation. Can't see any OEM putting in serious cash for another 12 to 18 months. Some grant funding likely in the meanwhile but think shares will sadly drift further

[robertspc1] 24/4/2024 23:21

Stereax session confirmed further delays to revenue. Usual guff about market opportunities but FDA approval will take forever. Overall v disappointing

[robertspc1] 23/4/2024 20:54

Presentation must have been fabulous given the share price reaction ... or maybe not

[rogk] 23/4/2024 08:46

Maybe you should have another sneeky top up Robert.

[robertspc1] 23/4/2024 07:54

Plenty of cash for now. The big $$$ required to scale up will come from third parties. Hope the CM day provides more info on Goliath relative performance v incumbent lithium and other competing technologies.
