Interesting FSE. It should encourage hesitant US investors to have a second look at BATM-Intel couldn't have have signed off on this without the Oval Office's nod. But BATM mgmt need to start getting their story out there, something they are dismally (or deliberately) failing to do at present.

Having a TASE listing with the exclusion of being part of index tracking funds in the much larger LSE is not helping the share price
The other drawback is that this is still considered a Covid stock largely due to the medical division being the largest component.
BATM has increased its revenue ex covid sales for the last 2 years but no one is paying attention to that.
You have the other odd situation where Telco systems have moved to an entirely new platform which whilst gaining traction is not yet providing meaningful revenue.
Its easier for markets to focus on the negatives and ignore the progress made until it converts into increased revenue.
Most of the weakness with BATM is due to misconception. The company has designed and brought forward some valuable IP from development to market with no dilution to shareholders equity.
If you took the amount BATM spend on R&D every year and add it to the bottom line you get a rather different picture. Development is all made and paid for "in house".

Just bgt another 86k shares (will show up in an hour or so). Revenue and profits were forecasted to be up in all divisions for H2.The year is nearly done and no profit warning. This is cheap purely for the Israeli connection which is not affecting business. Will be 30p+ once the trouble ends, which unlike Ukraine/Russia cannot last much longer.

Tase: I see the Tase35 today is now back to where it was before the early October attacks. Yet I notice our stock is still lagging there despite a new Cyber order as result of the conflict. Madness

Link to webinar with Telco systems.
STL partners also rated Telco systems one of the key companies to watch.
Lets hope it translates into sales

82. Telco Systems
Company type: Growth stage

Position in edge ecosystem: Hardware (Server, End-device); Network (Interconnect, IoT platform, Edge gateway, Cloud connect); Edge Cloud Infrastructure (Edge aggregation & orchestration, Operating system, Multi-cloud platform, Virtualisation & containers); Application/Software (Software application); Integration & Services (Systems integration, Professional services)

Notable achievements in 2022: In 2022 Telco Systems achievements include deploying Edgility, their smart, open platform for Edge Computing, that accelerates multiple services deployment, across a variety of customers. They onboarded their first Enterprise customer, CEMEX – a European Global Construction Materials Company, and have since expanded into the Enterprise space with POCs and trials at large Retail and Manufacturing organizations.

They launched their Managed Services offering with E-Qual, a French MSP that operates in more than 50 countries. They are helping global operators and service providers enhance their virtalization capabilities across their networks. One example is CityFibre, the UK’s largest independent carrier-neutral Full-Fibre platform, that is deploying Edgility across the UK as part of their nationwide Full Fibre network rollout, replacing legacy customer edge devices with small-footprint white-box, multi-purpose appliances, operated and fully managed by Edgility.

In other areas, they signed a partnership with Advantech to provide an enhanced joint solution based on Edgility pre-installed in Advantech universal edge network appliances and have been working closely with them to demonstrate the solution at a variety of industry events.

And finally, Telco Systems was shortlisted for the objective Layer123 Network Transformation Awards, under the Cloud and Edge Excellence category.

Key financials milestones reached: In 2022 the accumulated investment in Edgility reached was over $40m.

They intend to continue with future investments to grow their market differentiation, customer adoption and competitive advantage.

An edge computing use case they help to enable: One of the complexities generated by edge computing is in its economies of scale. The process of deploying, managing, and operating a huge amount of edge devices, must be perfect each time. Manual intervention consumes tremendous resources from the technical workforce, causing operational efficiency to plummet. Edgility is a smart and open platform for edge computing that simplifies the deployment, management, and operation of complex workloads on a diversity of edge devices on thousands of sites. Built from the edge up, Edgility enables CityFibre to increase operational efficiency by automatically deploying, managing, and operating a large number of edge devices at the customer premise, from remote without manual intervention. To create a unified system to shorten the time it takes to deploy edge devices at scale, CityFibre integrated Edgility with its OSS/BSS to provide 360° automation to lower the cost of deploying edge devices at scale.

Probably worth emailing them Kooba to point this out and see if the reply is confident on the matter. Obv they won’t give you chapter and verse

Moti 8 months ago"Additionally, we continue to make excellent progress under our contract with CityFibre who has adopted the latest release of the Edgility platform, which includes new Integrated Network Functions. We expect to receive further orders from CityFibre to enable the rollout of our virtualised solution throughout their whole network. "Think we need an update on where we are with cityfibre the principal and largest customer of Edgility.

"CityFibre has placed an initial order expected to be worth US$3.5m. BATM said it expects this order to be rapidly followed by a substantial expansion in deployments as CityFibre rolls out Edgility to its full network in coming years.BATM will receive recurring licence fees for a five-year period with some hardware sales - together estimated at US$3.5mln. The group expects the number of endpoint deployments with CityFibre's clients to rapidly expand to tens of thousands per year and believes the financial value of this partnership to the BATM will grow substantially in the near-term as the volume of licences increases beyond the initial contract value."https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/995716/batm-news-of-cityfibre-contract-for-the-roll-out-of-the-edgility-solution-lauded-by-shore-capital-995716.htmlOver a year since "initial" order now.

As a follow-up to the latest Version (v6) update of Edgility a few weeks back. It looks like Edgility now has competition in the form of Zededa, whose latest product launch now also boasts Kubernetes capability. Zededa claims their offering is an industry first, but as we all know they were beaten by Telco by a month.

ZEDEDA, a specialist in edge infrastructure orchestration, today announced ZEDEDA Edge Kubernetes Service, an industry-first, fully managed Kubernetes service for the distributed edge.

The new service includes a Kubernetes runtime that is curated, managed and supported by ZEDEDA, as well as integrations with industry-leading orchestrators.

Containerised workloads at the edge are exploding, with Gartner predicting that “by 2028, 80% of customer software running at the physical edge will be deployed in containers, which is an increase from 10% in 2023.”* As a result, organisations will increasingly need to deploy Kubernetes to run these containerised workloads and applications at the edge.

I think we will only get a TU if the year end results are plus or minus 10% from the full year forecasts. I think I have got that right. The results will be published end Feb from memory. I expect the FY results to be ahead of forecast but probably under the 10% threshold. IMHO

Trading update before year end?

[fse] 08/12/2023 16:32

Nothing to do with BATM specifically but the environment for technology at the moment is extremely unfavourable in many cases where as I have said before investors will have a tendency to sit it out and collect their 5% rather than take any chances.
Specific to BATM is that the company is well funded and not knocked off course as so many of their peers struggle to raise cash and are not making sufficient profit to fund their development.

Definitely the coolest article ever posted on a message board that I follow, kooba. I don't think I believe a word of it, but it's right out of the Daniel Craig Casino Royale and for that reason alone, it deserves a distinction!

The experience of dealing with pretty constant cyber attacks from the same groups over many years gives Israeli cyber firms a huge real time experience advantage when looking at overseas markets suddenly under the same threat .https://www.npr.org/2023/12/02/1216735250/iran-linked-cyberattacks-israeli-equipment-water-plants

I doubt they breached defence department..looks like they breached national archive which held a number of names and addresses including some military ..so whilst not good may well not have been protected to the same extent as defence department and IDF.We will probably never know the true effectiveness of the T-sense system..the fact they got further orders post Oct 7th bodes well...further orders for state and major public bodies would underline this..so here's hoping.

[resistance1] 01/12/2023 08:25

In particular it does mention the Defence Dept being attacked last week.. But what we don’t know if this was an area being covered by the service and how successful it was.
