Exactly that bullrun, you're always going to get impatient punters chasing their tails in the hope of instant gratification elsewhere, and with news expected here imminently, those selling their shares cheaply will wish they hadn't soon enough. Confirmation of of CLCO'S formal listing and disclosure of material news should see this re-rate significantly from this rockbottom bargain low share price and every chance that the recent additions to Cloudcoco's dynamic sales team have already secured new business from their existing contacts and relationships within the sector....CloudCoCo are going places, Gl :-)

Theres been few good RNSs out for other companies over the last week, folk tend shift there money around chasing the rises.This could be our turn very quickly with the right news I suppose.

Enterprise IT Companies Ride Spending Wave

Businesses are budgeting more for cloud computing, AI and other services, boosting tech firms that provide them


Nov. 11, 2019 6:31 pm ET

Enterprise information-technology firms are taking a bigger share of indexes of valuable companies, as businesses increase spending on cloud computing, data analytics and artificial intelligence.

The trend is also helping business-tech stalwarts including Microsoft Corp. , International Business Machines Corp. and Salesforce.com Inc. maintain strong positions in such rankings, as former highfliers in other industries fall out of them, analysts say.

Many big tech companies “made smart where-to-play choices” by getting into the fast-growing enterprise IT market early, said Scott Anthony, a senior partner at Innosight, the strategy and innovation practice of Huron Consulting Group Inc. “Roughly two-thirds of growth comes from market momentum, that is, being in segments where the wind is at your back,” Mr. Anthony said.

A record 184 technology companies made it into this year’s Global 2000, an annual ranking by Forbes magazine of the world’s largest public companies, based on sales, profits, assets and market value. That is up from 130 tech firms on last year’s list.

Likewise, the pace of change in the makeup of the S&P 500 has accelerated in recent years, as more companies with strong enterprise IT services or products replace incumbents outside of the tech sector, including retailers, manufacturers and energy firms, according to data compiled by Innosight.

The IT sector currently accounts for roughly 20% of companies listed on the S&P 500, up from 15% in 2006, according to data compiled by Siblis Research Ltd. Over that period, energy-sector companies have dropped by half to roughly 6%.

Innosight estimates that the average tenure of companies on the S&P 500 will shrink to 12 years by 2027, from 24 years for companies that were on the list in 2016 and 33 years in 1964. Much of that shake-up is being driven by the rapid growth in global IT spending in recent years, it said.

Companies world-wide are expected to spend a total of $3.8 trillion on enterprise IT this year, up 3.2% from 2018, led by cloud-based software subscriptions, according to research and advisory firm Gartner Inc.

In a recent survey by KPMG LLP of about 600 chief information officers, more than half said their companies have spent at least $10 million this year on business automation projects, including robotics, artificial intelligence, cognitive computing and analytics. Roughly one third said they had earmarked at least $50 million for future projects, the survey found.

Enterprise-technology companies are capturing this spending and recording revenue growth, said David Lantsman, a research manager at International Data Corp. who analyzes market trends for IT budgeting decisions and business development strategies.

Over the next five years, the enterprise IT market is expected to grow at roughly twice the rate of annual world-wide gross-domestic-product growth, up from less than 1½ times the rate in the early 2000s, according to IDC.

Mr. Lantsman said large tech firms have the “infrastructure and technical chops to provide, support and guarantee high availability of these digital tools world-wide.” Tech companies focused directly on the enterprise market are seeing some of the biggest revenue gains, he said.

Microsoft reported full-year revenue of $110 billion for the fiscal year ended June 30, up roughly 14% from the previous year, led by an 89% increase in revenue from Azure, its enterprise cloud-computing service. Salesforce, another enterprise IT leader, reported $10 billion in annual revenue last year, up 25% from 2017.

Craig LeClair, a vice president and principal analyst at Forrester Research Inc., said replacing older processes with emerging digital capabilities has become a priority for businesses within the past five years.

Developments at Íde, which also had its problems, are now firmly in the hands of MXCP and their partners. Adept's acquisition of Cloudcoco was under pressure from and brokered by MXCP as a means of turning that company around, with authority passing to new management. MXCP see the debt to them, payable at end of term, and the offer of working capital, as providing financial stability and improving the opportunity for return on their original investment.

[deekers] 09/11/2019 18:32

I believe they are in debt for £3.5 million to MXCP, I would expect the debt to rise as they try and sort out the merged companies. Ad4 didn't make a profit in 5 years so who knows the state of the contracts they entered.

[bigdano] 09/11/2019 12:27

So what's the latest view on this merger?. Still carring a lot of debth?.
