14/12/2021 14:17 | Aferian plc, the B2B video streaming solutions company, issued a trading update this morning. The Group expects to report that all its key financial metrics have tracked ahead of the prior year, and in line with Board expectations, representing an overall strong trading performance. As well as delivering further progress against its stated 2025 growth strategy, the Group has also successfully navigated well-documented global supply chain challenges. Top line performance is improving, bottom line performance is improving. Valuation is reasonable with forward PE ratio around 14, there is even a modest dividend yield around 2.4%. Share price lacks near term momentum, but an interesting company and certainly one to monitor for now...from WealthOracleAM | km18 | |
13/12/2021 10:26 | Looking Good. The visibility we have into next year's performance is high. :-) | slim9 | |
13/12/2021 07:29 | Positive Update ! Trading update The Group expects to report that all its key financial metrics have tracked ahead of the prior year, and in line with Board expectations, representing an overall strong trading performance. As well as delivering further progress against its stated 2025 growth strategy, the Group has also successfully navigated well-documented global supply chain challenges. At a headline level, the Group expects to report(1) : -- total revenue of approximately $92.0m representing a c11% increase on the previous year ended 30 November 2020 ("FY20") -- adjusted operating profit(2) growth up over 10% on last year -- improved quality of earnings thanks to higher-margin software and services revenue of approximately $22.5m: a c15% increase on FY20. This includes recurring revenue of approximately $13m, a c17% increase on FY20 -- enhanced revenue visibility with an exit run rate Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") of approximately $15.0m, up 42% from $10.6m ARR as at 30 November 2020 -- a strengthened net cash position of $14.0m at 30 November 2021 30 November 2020: $9.5m). This improved net cash position comes alongside the Group's expectation that it will report a net working capital outflow for the year as a whole. Whilst there is no underlying change to our debtor profile or cash generated, navigating the well-known supply chain issues in the period was challenging and the timing of some device shipments was pushed very close to our year end. This means cash will be collected after the end of the period. In addition to the strong growth in exit ARR, the Group has further visibility of next year's devices revenue as the Group's customers place orders up to 60 weeks in advance in response to extended lead times in the supply chain. Donald McGarva, Chief Executive Officer of Aferian plc, said: "This financial year Aferian has delivered an overall strong performance, with each of the key metrics tracking ahead of last year. Our 2025 strategy continues to evolve our business into a leading video streaming solutions company with more predictable and higher-quality recurring software and services revenue. The visibility we have into next year's performance is high. I am particularly proud of our team's delivery here, especially given the backdrop of tough supply chain challenges all organisations have had to manage. | masurenguy | |

01/12/2021 15:23 | Company year end was yesterday and there is normally a trading update in early December so we should probably expect to see this sometime next week. In the August interims McGarva stated: "We enter the second half in a solid position and continue to strengthen our pipeline of potential M&A opportunities as we seek to continue to deliver against our 2025 strategy. The Board remains confident in the Group's ability to meet current full year expectations and in the Group's future prospects as it executes it strategy and vision to make it easy for people to connect to the TV and video they love." | masurenguy | |
01/12/2021 15:10 | Streamers set to make TV channels minority viewing The dominance of the traditional television broadcasters will soon end as their offering are eclipsed by other ways of viewing, according to a new report. Deloitte, a professional services company, predicts that by 2023 broadcasts by the likes of the BBC and ITV will fall below half of the public’s viewing hours for the first time — even when live broadcasts and catch-up programming are combined. Viewers will be tempted away by on-demand services such as Netflix and Apple TV+, while YouTube, TikTok and videos watched through games consoles represent a smaller but growing threat to traditional television. Paul Lee, Deloitte’s head of technology, said that broadcast TV had slid from 73% of viewing hours in 2017 to 61% last year and was on track to fall to 49% by 2023. Over the same period, video on demand has risen from 7% in 2017 to 19% last year and is forecast to rise to 31% in 2023. Complete article: | masurenguy | |

30/9/2021 07:30 | Good contract win, although no financial value has been disclosed.

20/9/2021 19:10 | We'll I'd missed the dividend declaration and it was paid into my iWeb account today. 18 days after payment date! If I'd known I'd have complained... | goldry | |
05/8/2021 18:04 | I had a good run with this share a few years ago then sold out. I have been back in for some months now, primarily because Kestrel have a holding. Kestrel seem to me overall to have a good record and I have done OK elsewhere by following them. The results are fine but this just does not seem to be a high profile share. For me it's one to hang on to for a couple of years. | richjp | |

05/8/2021 11:56 | One issue for AFRN is that none of their acquisitions has ever really fired dramatic growth. I woke up to how lackluster 24i had been at the Prelims earlier this year and sold out after it re-rated. In H1 'software and services revenue' was up $0.2m, $9.9m from $9.7m. The $250m story is enticing but growth of only 2.1% is not setting the world on fire. | simon gordon |
