Posted at 27/3/2025 08:45 by cf456 Put into context though, SAA hasn't turned out to be a great investment so far. 12 million shares bought at 200p over 3 years ago and currently sitting at 170.5p.So that's a paper loss of £3.5 million vs the £234k dividend. Thankfully it's now only a small part of ADVT and very much non-core with the plan to sell it off when cash is needed for an acquisition. It's more of a distraction than anything else. |

Posted at 12/3/2025 14:13 by x54v Always worth stacking the odds in your favour by backing proven winners.--- "Lunch with my dear friend Vin Murria OBE DBA at The Ivy. Over 20 years now since we were both partners at ELDERSTREET VCT PLC . Vin has been described as the ‘UK Tech Queen’. I certainly know no other tech female (actually very few males!) who have been as successful as Vin. I’ve backed every one of her ventures from Computer Software Group, Advanced Computer Software Group and now ADVT All have been extraordinarily successful." |
Posted at 01/3/2025 12:54 by x54v VM is as good a bet as any I'd say. Historically she has returned 10x for investors not once, but several times using the same tried and tested formula in the same markets and with the same team. In the words of renowned tech analyst Richard Holway:"I have known Vin Murria (#ADVTs Exec Chairperson and main shareholder) now for near on 25 years stretching back to my days at Elderstreet. I have been a shareholder in both her previous main ventures Computer Software Group and ACS and have banked significant returns. In both cases holding from start to exit. I have also become a bit of a Vin groupie by investing in those companies where she has become a NED M&C Saatchi, Bunzl, Softcat etc. Put it this way, I have banked profits on them all!" -- At ADVT it's the same all over again - same process, same markets, same people and VM at the helm doing what she does best. She's that confident she was willing to invest £17.5 million of her own cash at IPO. That means she currently has around £28 million of her own money with ADVT. Such huge skin in the game guarantees that she's going to be hugely focussed on doing the best that she can for shareholders with her being one of the largest herself. The recent presentation was an enjoyable watch. Exciting times ahead by the looks of it with the existing business booming, acquisitions likely in the near term and a significant opportunity for growth in the US. The share price is current 160p, up from 100p at IPO. If history is anything to go by then there is significant further price appreciation to come as VM and team do what they've done so well historically with the likes of Computer Software Group and ACS. Over time there's every possibility of another 10x to Vin's name, this time with ADVT. |
Posted at 25/2/2025 14:44 by x54v Agreed SteMiS.Certainly from the way VM was talking yesterday evening, acquisitions look likely in the near term: the company is now in a stable state where it can more easily integrate additions; it appears that the number of potential opportunities is on the rise; and VM sounded like she was keen to take the company to the next level now that the initial base has been put in place. Possible acquisitions can be bolt-ons which complement the existing functionality and product set or much more substantial entities which could really move the dial share-price wise. In the words of Richard Penny: "I think if there was to be an interesting acquisition found, there's a chance you might put 50p to £1 onto the share price" As you rightly state, there is a risk of not being invested when an acquisition of scale appears out of the blue and the price gaps up. The appetite is certainly there - ADVT bid between 160 and 170 million last year for Capita One. |
Posted at 25/2/2025 13:38 by x54v More likely just some profit taking after the recent move up imo.The presentation was very good I thought and the outlook for the oompany very positive. VM emphasised the significant scale of the opportunity in the US for Retain, so that looks like a particular growth area. She was positive too on the prospects for acquisitional growth. The underlying company is now in a stable state where everything is in place and acquisitions can more easily be bolted on. Activity in this area looks likely to ramp up. So with the existing company trading materially ahead of expectations and acquisitions likely in the weeks and months ahead (and then optimisation of those acquisitions), it's a good time to be an ADVT shareholder imo. |
Posted at 20/2/2025 08:59 by cf456 "Comment: ADVT has certainly been the strong, silent type as far as its communications with the market. This should ensure that the aftermath of today’s fundamental upgrade has a disproportionately solid effect on the share price over the near term." |
Posted at 04/2/2025 14:42 by owenski Stephen English view on SAA, which obviously AdvT has a stake in, very positive.Starts at 1 hr 10 mins - |
Posted at 07/1/2025 18:05 by x54v ali47fish - Retain International and IBSS are two of the companies ADVT acquired from Capita. Both are now flourishing under the ADVT umbrella. |
Posted at 21/12/2024 13:38 by x54v Interesting to see that renowned tech expert Richard Holway……has ADVT as one of his largest holdings according to his recent Linkedin post: “The performance of the Holway Portfolio is heavily weighted towards its largest shareholdings (#ATT, Amazon and #ADVT).” — He has known VM personally for decades, rates her very highly and has made significant profits following her lead: “I have known Vin Murria (#ADVT’s Exec Chairperson and main shareholder) now for near on 25 years stretching back to my days at Elderstreet. I have been a shareholder in both her previous main ventures – Computer Software Group and ACS – and have banked significant returns. In both cases holding from start to exit. I’ve also become a bit of a Vin ‘groupie&rsquo Vin is just a master at focussed acquisitions that are then made to work together in a far more productive (and profitable) manner than they were whilst ‘alone’. |
