Same old BATM. I do find not honouring the dividend statement a worrying sign.

[paulisi] 13/7/2021 11:38

Despite all the positive news, price pushed down to 90p.Interim statement must be due in the next 2-3 weeks.

I posted this at the end of last week. In light of the recent Edgility product announcement and Maroms IOT comments if you are wondering what this is about the video is worth watching.



Latest announcement also confirms what I suspected that this would be pitched to service providers. At this level this is a win win win situation for Telco systems, the provider and the end user.

Launch of Edgility networking NFV-based ecosystem

Release of Fast SD-WAN & Firewall as first Edgility dedicated package

BATM (LSE: BVC; TASE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory systems, announces that its Telco Systems subsidiary has launched Edgility, an ecosystem of networking products and services based on its network function virtualisation ("NFV") technology. In addition, Telco Systems has released its first dedicated package under the Edgility product suite, which is a Fast SD-WAN & Firewall offering that provides secure network connectivity for the small office and home office ("SOHO") market.

Edgility is founded on the Group's NFV operating system, Edgility OS (formerly NFVTime). This enables Edge compute whereby data processing takes places at the network edge, nearer to the end device, to improve response times and save bandwidth. With the recent global trends of increased remote working, the Group believes there is a significant opportunity for the provision of connectivity solutions utilising Edge compute for the underserved SOHO market. In addition, Edge compute is fundamental in enabling Internet of Things ("IoT") technologies.

The Group's Fast SD-WAN (software-defined wide-area network) & Firewall package provides a branch or home office with a secure network connection at a cost-effective price by adopting a novel approach to connectivity. Fast SD-WAN bypasses the need for a dedicated MPLS or SD-WAN line at the core of the network, which are resilient but costly, by leveraging multiple lines and the compute power at the edge device. This provides optimal bandwidth across the entire network by using application-based traffic prioritisation.

The Group is targeting the package at telecoms service providers and distributors to the SOHO market. By adopting Edgility Fast SD-WAN & Firewall, they will be able to offer their enterprise customers a secure access service edge ("SASE") solution that is low cost and quick to provision thereby reducing the time to return on investment. With the increasing digitalisation of business - resulting in a proliferation of devices and applications - combined with work-from-anywhere initiatives, Gartner predicts that by 2025, at least 60% of enterprises will have explicit strategies and timelines for SASE adoption encompassing user, branch and edge access, up from 10% in 2020.

Edgility Fast SD-WAN & Firewall comprises a small, rugged device developed by Telco Systems, which is pre-packaged with Edgility OS integrated with Clavister's SD-WAN and class A firewall. The devices are deployed at the central office and at the branch office or employee homes, with a simple installation process. This provides the remote locations with the same level of security and connectivity as the central office at the core.

Dr Zvi Marom, CEO of BATM, said: "'Edgility' reflects our focus on driving innovation at the network edge, which is underpinned by our network function virtualisation technology. With the increasing digitalisation of business and emergence of widespread hybrid working, there is growing demand for Edge compute solutions and a significant opportunity to establish an early-mover foothold in this nascent market. Our Fast SD-WAN & Firewall package has been launched to target this opportunity with what we believe is a unique ability to provide secure connectivity at a comparatively low cost and with a simple set up. We believe there is great potential for this offering, which also expands our NFV activities."

>Doc.... Yes I was curious to know what the interest in the company is about. They do make some products that are in competition with BATM/Adaltis.

Regrettably there is no useful discussion on either ADVFN threads and rather absurd comments from Avacta themselves. The auditors signed off as them being an economically viable company. I would dispute that.

I have small holdings in a few companies that I see as as disruptive technology thats time may have come. I was tempted to hold a few Avacta as they do have some interesting potential products/solutions albeit they do not make any money. They are nevertheless funded through for the next couple of years so someone thought they were worth supporting.

My take on the company which are as I say in competition somewhat with Adaltis is that investors are expecting too much in assuming that the UK government will mass buy their LFT (tests). Avacta other interests whilst more compelling are still IMO quite a way from commercialization.

I might buy a few if the share price crashes and the company is attractive for takeover. I do not think (unless matters change) that the company is viable from a financial and management viewpoint.
I held Genmark diagnostics for example as they had an avenue of technology that I considered worth a lot to another company. They were taken over for more than a $bn and they never made a cent !

As far as posting over there I agree a waste of time and effort, I thought I might flush out some interesting comment but to no avail.

Hi FSE I have spotted you have commented on the AVCT forum. Complete lunatic posts there and not worth posting Best wishes

SOHO market looks v interesting

[fse] 08/7/2021 20:30

Thats the one doc... heres a bit more info plus the tie up with Clavister



Also the previous co operation



Added comment: Actually this is well worth taking note of as I have been detecting a shift in interest here from Telco to not just address the larger government markets but also the second tier of operations which is a potentially much larger market for them. Also this all has very significant implications for providers.
Covid has been a double edge sword for BATM. It boosted their infectious diseases portfolio but it also hamstrung Telco initiatives which needed in person appointments and installation personnel. There is a rush on now to bring companies logistics up to scratch with handling vastly increased bandwidth demands and cyber security bundles.

There is another dynamic at play here also for Providers who are under increasing regulation preventing them from increasing prices so they have to provide more for not much more money. These are the very solutions that Telco are providing and further to that recent ransomware attacks can not be ignored .

Two questions:DividendThe Board of BATM has resolved to recommend the distribution of a dividend for full year 2020 following the publication of the Group's audited annual report and accounts, in accordance with Israeli law. The Group will provide further details in due course.When are we expecting an update?I believe a trading update should be issued soon. Does anyone know the date?

[fse] 06/7/2021 15:49

Present trading range should be in the 120p to 160p range
SP is at an attractive entry point.
The recent deluge of ransomware attacks has sent the share price for a lot of companies in the cyber/security sector up sharply.
I dont think the market appreciates the sophistication of companies like BATM/Celare who are currently marketing advanced solutions for today and the high bandwidth demands of future applications.
In this field you have to be constantly ahead of the game.

[vago] 06/7/2021 14:27

Once the numbers come in 400p will happen LSE or Nasdaq.

[wizzkid211] 06/7/2021 13:45

VAGO
listed on nasdaq 400p is a real possibilty

Agree no rash...I honestly think batm will get to one billion valuation thats 227p a share, it may take a year or two but it will get there!

[picsous] 06/7/2021 12:01

Well Zvi, in his interview, said they are not in a hurry. I am comfortable with that approach but it seems to go against investor's impatience.
Having owned bvc shares since before the Nokia shocker I am more than thrilled with the share price performance since then because there was no dilution, all one had to do is remain patient and have some faith in management.

[rob1ng] 06/7/2021 10:49

Thanks Cumnor. I think the Nasdaq is the place to be also

Darktrace (cyber-security) was listed in May at a value of £1.7Bn. Today, less than 2 months later it is valued at £3.8Bn. BVC has a value as at today of 435M.
