Recognising that we're still down over 20% since early November and we're barely the same amount off multi-year lows, I offer the following 'kinda fun/a bit ramp-y/pretty unlikely/but definitely possible' bit of a Christmas stocking stuffer: If (and its a yuge if, I know), we should get some significant news between now and very early January (my bet would be that the Cyber contract economics would be the most likely candidate), and our share price can get to around the 29p level and stay there on average over the appropriate measurement period, which I believe is a week in early January, then as of this moment, BATM apparently would have sufficient market cap to be able to re-enter the TA-125 index. My source is pretty reliable but I haven't checked the details yet - ie., the precise measurement period, how many other Companies shares are also close to the entry level and therefore may pip BATM to the post if they also have big rallies in that period, even whether this is purely a market cap-driven index and there isn't any human overlay that may apply, etc. - but it's certainly useful for everyone to realise that this is even a possibility in the first place, remote though it may be. As I've highlighted before, the Company's rejection from the same index in August saw almost twice the number of shares traded - 22m if memory serves - than any of us watching it expected. Re-entry into the index would be indisputably a big event for the share price. Note that I am discounting the repricing that's going on currently on the back of the buyback and some bottom-fishing new buying being able to do it on its own, but that's always possible, especially if we have a few more days like we're enjoying this morning!

No one is faulting you for being cautious, kooba; in fact, no one is or was being the opposite. It was you who opened the betting as it were with your take that this is 'still small beer' in fact. The only other comments were of the 'good on them' variety. My counterpoint to you then was just an effort to remind that the current valuation more than fully reflects your skepticism already; ie., that the idea that past is prelude, that management will continue to serially disappoint and therefore any good news near-term should be severely discounted, is very much already in the share price and then therefore the risk here is likely more to the upside, as that deep skepticism is likely to cause the share price to under-react not just to discrete bits good news like today's, but more importantly, to an overall positive execution trend that may be developing at the corporate level and/or in one of the 3 key businesses, as I believe is unfolding. You may see that as a distinction without a difference but not me.

Finally, I really don't want this to yet again devolve into a needless battle of wills but I need to highlight this as a respectful attempt to show how you perhaps have gotten into the habit of reacting to criticism that isn't really there:

'...Who says some way off commercial revenues…oh thats my opinion…me. If you think that we will be selling encryption products to commercial markets any time soon that is your opinion and is based on what exactly...?' Kooba - I didn't make any claim, directly or indirectly. I expressed no opinion on the subject whatsoever - other than to ask, respectfully, where you got that claim from - though as Resistance quickly pointed out on the other thread, if I had asserted the opposite, I would have at least had some officially released information from the Company to back my 'opinion', making my theoretical claim more evidence-based than yours. Can you see how my frustration with your response could easily have escalated an otherwise innocent difference of opinion?

"... They need to demonstrate they can make the M&A necessary to turn this into a business that might just resemble a high growth innovation business they make it out to be...." yes, exactly, that's exactly the point, but when they do, the share price is going to be a lot higher, so the core of any discussion here has to have a healthy appreciation of where the share price is and how any guidance the company provides relative to their near-term plans, needs to be measured against it. In other words, we get it. Everything you continue to tick off is undisputed but its also backward looking, so what we should care more about now is what may be happening on the ground and how that stacks up against a share price trading below pro-forma cash and real estate. That's what makes today's announcement more important than you appreciate, especially coming reasonably soon after having already done their first, pretty shareholder-friendly transaction. We're all p*ssed about the delays, the misses, the broken promises, but letting that anger obscure the clear smoke signals coming from Tel Aviv - especially at this deeply distressed share price - would only serve to compound shareholder long-time frustrations.

tt - they have '9 months' left (obviously not a formal deadline) to sell/shut down a portfolio of identified, non-core businesses(the Progenetics and Eco-Med sale-or-shutdown announcements are a great start as it will add c5m to the y-e cash pile). Given this pretty tight timeline then, its reasonable to expect the next sale announcement soon and this should begin the share price recovery. Remember, the goal here is transformational: from the published accounts and the post-results presentation deck, we can infer that the company is looking to shed businesses that constitute around 50/60m in revenues without a material impact on ebitda (in fact, the current broker forecast is for a return to growth of 20+% in 2025 if memory serves). This then will leave BATM as a far leaner company eventually focused on just the 2 growth engines of Cyber and Telcos, between which there are clear, potential synergies, and with a cash horde of c50-60m, allowing them to finance the material acquisition they seek, just from reserves.

Given how terribly delayed this process has been, I reckon management is more incentivised than ever to make up for lost time (the admission that they would shut down EcoMed if they can't get a sufficient price for the business is a major indication of this sea-change in their approach to the disposal process which the market has entirely ignored - and I don't blame it - but nevertheless augers well for Moti'a credibility in keeping to this now accelerated schedule) but, as is so ably represented on this board, the management and the share price as well, will of course suffer from intense 'show-me' bias all along the way, especially during the early days of this transformational process.

To me, the potential value-creator most ignored by the market is Moti's genuine commitment to an acquisition/disposal strategy which has no impediments to beginning immediately given the Firm's strong balance sheet, but then, for the first time I can remember, the Company under Moti is now promoting 'partnerships' and/or JVs in developing its core businesses as well. Just as I believe selling Distribution and/or Carrier Ethernet (my current 2 favourite disposal possibilities) could make a mockery of the Company's currently suppressed valuation (much as the sale of NGSoft did), so too of course would a tie-up with an industry heavyweight say, for Edgility, or the development of a 'civilian' Cyber business. The key to this part of the Company's strategy on the share price is that it is obviously not based on signing new deals, or hooking up more customers, securing new contracts (well, at least not in the short-term), etc.; i.e., these are actions the Company can and hopefully will take in the next 6-18 months, (largely) independent of delivering on operational goals. This is what a deeply discounted sum-of-the-parts Company with nearly 1/2 of its market cap in cash and multiple healthy operating businesses is able to do and, unlike Zvi, I believe Moti has signalled that he is (finally!) prepared to do it and on a material scale. This can and should, I believe, easily drive resistance's share price projections without needed recourse to anything special on the operational side

On the frozen buyback, I'm a bit stumped. If Shore Cap have discretion, they may have been waiting for the share price to fall back a bit further, but that seems unlikely. At THIS point, they may be in their quiet period if results are in fact due by end of Feb, but it's true that they haven't been buying from before the usual 30-day-to-results restriction period.

I've a long-standing belief that Ador would need to be pursuing new capital around this time to fund their new generation, all-singing, all-dancing diagnostic tech, probably dating back to when BATM were showcasing it at the Milken Conference this past summer (source would have been a fellow shareholder who managed to attend or spoke to someone who did, but I can't recall). In fact, I believe I've written a couple times since then that one potential - though obviously less likely - event catalyst for our asset-rich, public valuation-starved share price would be a significant up round which blows well past the current, very modest imbedded valuation for Ador, but one where BATM also does not participate, allowing its current 38% to be diluted down to say, 25%. The result of that would be that the Company would save the cash for the buyback and investment elsewhere, but also end up with 25% of a much larger imputed valuation for Ador than currently, which could then have a real impact on the share price. Anyway, a girl can dream.

So here's the more positive view of this RNS, as I'm confident the company (ie., particularly the share price) continues to suffer from the long delay without an update on its restructuring program and its overly conservative comms policy generally: 1. first off, as Resistance points out on the other thread, the 'Tier 1' customer is a designation the Company takes very seriously and so should the market, though it clearly is not at the moment. That under-reaction is then being compounded as the market is, for now, ignoring the fact that not only is this customer 'Tier 1' but Egility is replacing a legacy provider. The latter, for me, is a very big deal. 2. As to the relatively 'small size' of the 'order', my view is that the qualifier 'minimum' in front of the £2.4m should be respected. At this stage, surely the only revs BATM can claim in an RNS are the basic, guaranteed engagement fees. In addition of course, the most under-appreciated attraction of the Egility business is the tiny marginal costs of supporting customer order, making even smaller business wildly profitable. 3. Nothing to do with today's RNS, but as we are now in December, one can safely assume that the year's numbers are set or near-set, so I think we can more comfortably take a profit warning - particularly driven by CityFibre, which was my biggest fear - off the table, as a primary reason for the share price weakness. That leaves some combo of the continued hostilities in the Middle East, continued malaise in the UK smaller cap market (which, tbf, I believe are finally easing) and deep anger and frustration with Moti's failure to yet engage the balance sheet restructuring promised in Summer 2023 (my 'favourite' reason by far) as the main causes for the very poor share price performance this year. However, with the AGM approaching, and the end of the fiscal year soon after that, especially as I know that management are acutely aware of how damaging rising shareholder 'fed-up-ness' with their lack of positive advances - particularly regarding the long-promised corporate transactions meant to re-focus the business once and for all and, maybe even more importantly, their abject lack of comms to explain that lack of progress - has been to the share price, I genuinely believe we're in for a much more engaged period from the company. Whether that gets us the share price re-rate I think it deserves of course depends (almost; I still think we can go back to 30p just on a muscular refutation of some of the negatives that surround the share price, without even touching on a solid sale price for a business most of us didn't even know existed, new orders, progress in Cyber, etc) entirely on what the Company actually have to say.

One (partial) theory favoured by some in the market is that there is something fundamental being discounted here outside of Moti's failure to deliver on his strategic review thus far, and that's an increasingly gloomy view around CityFibre. While there's an argument that this is unfair since there really isn't any accounting for material revenue, let alone profit, from the CF contract in the company's immediate forecasts or current share price, CF is obviously a big part of BATM's future plans and much has been made about the huge margins/wildly profitable nature of the partnership once it reaches critical mass. In the past couple of years however, there have been periodic concerns about CF's - and the industry generally - viability, and then recently there has been a downgrade to UK growth prospects both before and after Labour's win and I do think BATM may be suffering a steady decline in sentiment and share price given its exposure to the UK economy through CF (of course, because its a UK smaller cap, it hasn't had any compensatory rise in sentiment or share price on the back of the commercial Cyber deal with Thales - or similar-sized player - though it deserves to in my view). The bottom-line however, is that a LOT of bad news - none of it at all confirmed - is likely now discounted at 17/18p and so the company is in a position to lead a revival in the share price if they can come out of the shadows, mea culpa in hand, and start delivering some updates and transactions. Yes, before anyone asks, I believe they will.

First off, the 9m share print was a fund-to-fund, which is why it had no impact on the share price. More importantly, on the lack of movement, I agree it's been very disappointing. While I measure the starter's pistol on Moti more from the summer of 2023 when the company held its capital markets day and Moti's plans were formally unveiled (the first 6 months of his CEO-ship were obviously focused on more pedestrian matters), its still been nearly a year and a half without any transactions meant to simplify the balance sheet and gain greater focus for the business as I was expecting. Meantime, the share price has suffered the same as if they had issued a profit warning anyway, so the lack of an update on their plans - eg., whether the inactivity is more a function of the crisis in the region or a more structural inability to find suitable acquisition targets at the right price and/or being unable to sell or shut down the businesses targeted for disposal - is likewise extremely frustrating, even mystifying. One (partial) theory favoured by some in the market is that there is something fundamental being discounted here outside of Moti's failure to deliver on his strategic review thus far, and that's an increasingly gloomy view around CityFibre. While there's an argument that this is unfair since there really isn't any accounting for material revenue, let alone profit, from the CF contract in the company's immediate forecasts or current share price, CF is obviously a big part of BATM's future plans and much has been made about the huge margins/wildly profitable nature of the partnership once it reaches critical mass.
