Spreads very variable... sometimes a few p. Not sure whats caused the rise... although at some point the buybacks should have an effect - well hope so at least!!!! |
Lot of buying this morning very cheap stock on past and recent performance just pity about wide spread |
Still off the radar and going up nicely |
well off the radar here.... decent contract win announced and not a comment |
Basic earnings per share are only 4-5p here. So on that basis the shares are on a p/e of about 50. What's the investment case at this price? |
bridggar,
Any ideas on what the addressable market is for Fynapse through Microsoft? |
Serious stake building going on here. Yet market seems oblivious. |
Of betting the farm on microsoft subscription model. |
Dumping the CEO suddenly, does it point to strategic and market issues? |
Is partner execution where you shoot a partner if he doesn’t pay up? |
 Tech Market View - 21/3/23:
Aptitude focus growth around finance digitalization
Finance software and platform provider Aptitude Software reported strong growth to close out FY22, as the company looks to further grow its subscription business and increase uptake of its finance platform Fynapse.
Total FY22 revenue (year ended 31 December 2022) grew by 25% to £74.4m, with organic growth of 14% (excluding impact of MPP global acquired in 2021). Annual Recurring Revenue ('ARR') grew by 9% (constant currency) to £51.6m. Recurring revenues, a strategic focus for the business, continued to grow and represents 68% of overall revenue. Non-recurring revenue, comprising implementation services and software development, totalled £23.9m representing 24% overall growth. Operating profit was down 25% as the company increased investment in its two strategic growth drivers of finance digitalization and subscription management.
Fynapse, a strategic digital finance platform, launched in March 2022 and is a key growth driver for the business. The platform provides organisations with next generation digital finance capabilities, and builds on the Aptitude Accounting Hub, centralising and automating finance, accounting and reporting processes, and creating a deep level of operational intelligence for organisations. Aptitude also announced the signing of a major new partnership agreement with Microsoft. Under the agreement Fynapse will be the only product with its capability to be deeply integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and operate on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
In addition to the Microsoft partnership Aptitude say they have received strong interest from consultancies who are attracted to the open design of Fynapse. This open design provides partners with the opportunity to co-create and license their own IP built on the Fynapse platform. Going forwards Aptitude remains focused on delivery against three go-to-market pillars: finance digitalization, subscription management and partner execution. |
Hedge fund doubles its holding. Whats not to like?? |

Ridiculous spread here. |
Bid coming? |
Looks like good recovery potential here but @368p the PER is still rather rich. |
They are a hedge fund. |

Not so sure. Others also see value here. Am in for the takeover. |
This might be reasonable value but probably dead money for a year at least with headline profit number shrinking |
