The share price is irrelevant.
What matters is paying users.
I hope they continue to build the business, that means the technology, user numbers and strategic partnerships.
Then the BIRD will fly.

Happy New Year to the DODO crew
My prediction for the share price is 1p by end of 2025 |
£12.37 it will be one day ... probably not by this time next year. |
25-30p touch woodRealistically I think the share price at Xmas 2026 is where we might finally, if all goes well, see the huge figure we're all hoping for.Happy New Year all! |
There are two ways to go in 2025. I am going to stick my neck out!!............
1. An agreed sale of Blackbird is a possibility. Who knows at what price. Maybe £6 per share?? Because I don't expect SS and IM would agree to sell out for less than this amount.
2. Going it alone, the share price on 31.12.2025 may be 89p. A big increase on today because of Blackbird's amazing technology finally hitting a sweet spot in the market with elevate.io |
I think that the last chance to buy at current prices before BIRD begins it assault on £12 and the stratosphere may be in the next 10 days or so. The launch of the paying product is very important but if I were trying to create a wow factor naming a substantial number of paying users would certainly be near the top of my list. But a collaboration with a major player that wants to enter the mass video market would really create a shock wave. AWS have been very supportive and stand to get substantial income from their Cloud interests but entering the video market would offer really big margins for them or any other entrant that has the resources and the connections. |
I wish all my BIRD friends a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Ask the remuneration committee that and why they think the LTIP threshold tomorrow should be 50% of that it is today. |
There will be some dilution, in the region of 5-10%.
It is win / win, but there is no risk of capital on their behalf and the award they grant themselves could eventually be worth billions if IM's "tens of billions" is hit.
It goes beyond sharing in success, but it's not unique to BIRD, remuneration committees are out of control imo. |
I’m as ignorant as the next man on all this malarkey so just a question to confirm my thoughts here.
If I own say 10,000 shares worth £475 today and the LTIP thresholds are met, I still own those same 10,000 shares and they are now worth £1500 but the directors get a bit more cash for more than tripling the worth of my shares and hanging in for another couple of years?
If that’s the case, I can’t see a problem with that. |

Why do you say elevate is a failure? |
Yes. Admin, keeping track of shares admitted and options outstanding. |
is the second RND just a standard end of year announcement? |
Time limited options with a fair exercise price. Simple and fair to board and shareholders alike.
Take a look at the recent APTA incentive plan if you want to see how it should be done. |
When you have never hit an LTIP target all these years later, it's just more bunce for failure.
If you have never hit a target I'm not sure you should be rewarded for it.
As said earlier by other posters, it's a one way bet with no consequences for failure, other than it seems you actually get rewarded with easier terms. |
No issues here for me.
They hit those targets and above, I’m happy they get paid out.
Onwards and upwards. |
Maybe their last chance to fill their boots, I don’t blame them!
SS and Ian are also the biggest shareholders |
All will be forgiven when we have...

The lower the hurdle the greater their reward. They missed the last one, they don't want to miss the next one. |
They are taking advantage of this low share price I would imagine!
The shareholders who have been selling and setting the price presumably take the view that our prospects are poor |
would be interesting to know why the remuneration committee thinks the prospects of the company have halved since the last issue. |
The idea that they can take a small but not insignificant slice of the company on an biannual basis means they can end up with owning a significant chunk of the company for which they have paid, and risked, nothing.
Share in success by all means, but keep it proportionate.
Award share options at an exercise price close to the actual price. It's simple, measurable, much clearer as to what is going on and is more aligned with shareholders.
I own x shares, not a 'pool', they should own shares and options for shares (time limited). |
