Investor's Champion comments: Revenue for the year rose 8% to £21.0m, of which Software as a Service (‘SaaS’) was up 9% to £19.3m and represented the lion’s share, generating a very appealing 80% gross margin. Exit annual recurring revenue of £21.1m offers plenty of visibility with 38 multi-year contract renewals secured in the year worth £15.72m. It would be interesting to get a demo of their technology at work!

Has anyone seen the poll on ADVFN Twitter about ATQT? https://twitter.com/advfn/status/1095950151179517952

Sold out of these a while ago but those figs don't look great. Looks like someone got wind of them yesterday with all those sells..

[dplewis1] 13/9/2018 14:32

Finally a bit of news! Glad they've started to announce individual contracts rather than informing retrospectively in earnings reports.

[dplewis1] 01/8/2018 18:02

Maybe Kestrel don't care about attrition, they just increased another .5%

[p1nkfish] 28/7/2018 13:37

Attrition does need addressing. Have a small stake at a good price and looking to ease further in if I get the vibe there are catalysts. Downtrend not broken. Market potential is large & hence big boys on-board and working to address issues. First sign it is on the right path & There is a good chance of substantial re-rate upwards imho.

I am of the opinion that Eric Dodd would have discovered any shenanigans and wouldn't be quiet about it. The RNS of Oct 2017 helps show that Also, If correct, the recent H1 results will have included the re-platforming expected for early H1 2018 with the associated attrition etc. Conspiracies theory - but wonder if that was to do with Dan Wagner's new vehicle and the reason for a purge so there could be no conflicts of interest going forward?

[p1nkfish] 28/7/2018 12:03

All interesting developments, next few RNS releases will give some further pointers.

[william_quinn] 28/7/2018 11:50

Absolutely agree. By the way Cansccord which I think includes Hargreaves, is now 10% and Lombard Odier 21.35%|.

Kestrel have been doing a job on Ubisense with CEO change etc and it has started to turn around. Kestrel, Aryemis & Azini can all be good active investors and all on this register.

[p1nkfish] 28/7/2018 11:46

Thanks WQ. I missed that one, hadn't got round to it yet. Andre Brown left with immediate effect and it looks very much like the VP of North American sales did about the same time and his new job looks a step back from Attraqt. It would be no surprise to find this is all a part of a strategy by Kestrel and Azini to get this motoring and none of it by accident.

The new hires do look very useful and tried and tested by 2 major shareholders in the past - a good sign. They are not unknowns and stand a good chance of putting growth into this vehicle.

[p1nkfish] 28/7/2018 11:01

Nick Habgood is via Azini partners (still involved with Azini) and Azini are an investor in OB10. A CEO of OB10 was the new Atqt CEO. So there are new CEO & CFO both with strong links via previous employment with Azini and Kestrel. Old guard all swapped out and Bright Station out. I think that is a sign there are catalysts for real change in play. Kestrel 19.6% Lombard Odier 18.2% Azini 16.2% Hargreave Hale 8.3% Herald Investment Trust 7.6% Killik & Co LLP 5.6% Artemis Investment Management LLP 4.7% André Brown 3.1% What will Andre Brown do with his 3%, now Wagner and Bright Station are out?

[p1nkfish] 28/7/2018 10:33

VP North America has gone after 8 months. May 17 - Jan 18. My suspicion is that he was picked by old ATQT management and a new brush sweeps clean. A thorough house clean has been going on. Often that is no bad thing and likely to be under the behest of major shareholders. Hence Wagner, CEO and Wagner's VC arm all out of having influence with new CFO and CEO. Now would like to see sells mopped up by one of the existing 3%+ brigade and a holding RNS as soon as appropriate. We all make mistakes but the share register looks reasonable and they will have all done due diligence and many in at a higher price.
