Good morning DTB :)

Many thanks for your kind words. I probably read and make investment decisions differently from 99% of PIs as my time frames, patience and experience is different. I read the recent flurry of highly positive RNSs as confirmation of further growth and a further large beach head being established in the UAE.

This may need further funding and that is why we are a publicly listed company on the stock market. If companies are able to raise funds independently, they may not need to be listed on the market. Take multibillion dollar revenues Dyson for instance - they need no one's money.

This brings it back to the question of why additional funding is required - is it for mere survival or is it for growth ? Given we have heard that "materially exceeded market expectations" it reflects the latter. It is easy to argue that the company is not profitable and therefore potentially a basket case and investors are being taken for a ride.

A lot of people did not stay with an Amazon investment when it remained unprofitable for well over a decade but Bezos was investing and growing to make it the giant it is today. Bezos knew what he was doing even if the market did not agree with him in the short term. Amazon investors will be surely thanking him now !

I am an outlier and don't pay much attention to financial metrics - people sweat over these things, but a good accountant can make most financial statements palatable for whatever purpose. Just reading RNS about financial statements and deciding about investments, hide the issues of the likes of Enron, Wirecard, Patisserie Valerie, Redcentric, Tesco, Carillion etc - it is like paying attention only to the dashboard instruments and not seeing where we are actually heading !

I take a macro view and invest taking into account trends in technology, geopolitical movements, economic indicators and cycles, understand demographics, commodities etc. I plough what seems a lonely furrow but a very profitable one for me and don't need validation from BBs or posters.

CRUX was hit by fund redemptions apparently....which seems to be consistent with what I am hearing from other fund managers as well. BTW, Crux probably lost about 6p per share for their offload.

Maybe people can write to JC and ask if someone like PrimaryBid can be involved to give retail investors a chance to participate in any funding rounds in the future ?

Good luck all !

It's easy to tell who are the private investors on these BBs and who are part of the choreography team - it's a timing & source of material thing.

I didn't get where I am today without knowing a thing or two about something being choreographed when I see it (for the old effers amongst us who remember The Fall and Rise of Reggie Perrin. BTW, does CJ remind you of anyone?)

Sadly, ITT, nothing has happened. No thing. Exactly the point I have been making. There is probably good work being done on the ground to deliver on the orders we have received so far but so pitiful is our investor relations department that they don't deem it necessary to keep us informed of (non-market sensitive) progress. I find it rather discourteous to be honest. Many of us have been here for a long time and have given our support to the company through thick and thin. Aspects of the website are out of date and the titbits of information that come from India are put out on X, which not everyone subscribes to. What about a newsletter or the CC India section of the website? Come on folks. Time to extract the digit and remember your loyal investors.
By the way, good to hear from you ITT.

Totally agree ITT. As I've said many times, the information management has been pretty poor. Even on the basis of our orders to date, my feeling is that the share price should be much higher than it is at the moment. And when you add in all the positive analyst comments and articles like the one you have posted, to be languishing at these levels is really not very good. It may of course be that the company wants to keep itself under the radar until such times as (we hope) game-changing orders arrive, to deter predatory interest, but if we are going to be predated then I want it to come when we are orders of magnitude higher than we are now. For me, as a non-social media user, too much comes out via X on the CC India thread. Sections of the website that should be full of current news is woefully out of date. Not good enough and reflects a lack of respect for long-term investors like ourselves, which is a shame, because I am sure JC and HP do care about their small investors, at least from my personal experience. Anyway, the trading over the past week does offer a hint of things to come, so fingers crossed for news next week. GLA.

All sounds very interesting TF. As far as CC is concerned, I just feel that the company does not market itself effectively enough to prospective investors. And existing investors have to wait far too long between reports to find out how things are progressing, especially irritating, for me at least, when order news has slowed to a crawl. I would like to hear how our ROW orders are getting on. What on earth is the state of play in Thailand? Has that order now been installed and, if so, are prospects for the rest of the MEA still good or have they gone elsewhere? I understood that in India a certain proportion of the awards had to be got moving within a fairly short time-frame. If so, orders should be imminent. But we've been saying that for a long time now. I thought that the Intellismart SFA was designed to speed up the move from the award to orders. Doesn't seem to be happening. All very frustrating.

Hi bubloo

You'll have to upgrade to read the report:-

www.research-tree.com/companies/uk/telecoms-equipment/cyanconnode-holdings-plc/research/longspur-clean-energy/cyanconnode-one-million-module-order/59_6555d125-1f50-436d-b305-6fe84f2c73a4/d33b9108-d00d-4185-8166-eb127772aeb3

Private investors (PI) and institutional investors (II) don't have equal privileges when it comes to being invested in companies like Cyan. All I do is let rip if I'm unhappy about how I see us PIs being treated.

I have never sold a single Cyan share, unlike quite a few of our IIs.

If I make a good return on my investment here, I feel that it will have been well 'earned'.

Thanks Multi and SBP. Voices of reason. If you can cut through the sceptical posts on here and the other site and focus on the positive stuff from you guys and Vas and LTI, as well as articles like the directorstalk one, the picture, to me at least, merits more optimism than pessimism. We just need to get one of those deals whose scale is above what we've had so far and moves us to a significantly higher trading range. If our low point moves to the low thirties/high twenties I could live with that. I certainly feel that, even with the recent dilutions, we should be able to justify that sort of price. It's all about market and investor confidence. As we've said before, once we have move our installed base into, say the 10-20m range, the recurring revenue stream should prove attractive to a wider range of investors. We must be due news soon though, I would think.

And also worth restating my view that JC, to whom I talked once, on the phone, and HP, with whom I have enjoyed a number of email exchanges, do have the best interests of investors at heart and are fully committed to making CC a very successful company. Nothing I've heard or seen would make me doubt that and I for one wish them all the best for their, and our, success. Fingers crossed.

Hi NTG1

Can't see why they are buying subscription shares, unless they are buying them in their sibling(s)'s names. It says:-

Qualifying Investors

A stated aim of the EIS is to attract outside investors to companies. As a result, the scheme denies EIS relief to investors who are ‘connectedR17; with the company.

This includes:

* Employees or directors of the company
* Investors who (together with their ‘associates217;) hold more than 30 per cent of
the company’s share capital
* Relatives of connected persons, though NOT SIBLINGS
* Business partners of connected persons
* Existing shareholders whose shares are not SEIS or EIS qualifying, or subscriber
shares
* There are provisions for ‘Business Angels’, enabling certain investors to become
directors.

Its not a strange market, its just one that is currently going down because the sells currently outweigh the buys.

Easy.

Nothing odd in that at all imo.

There is clearly a large sell order in the background and the small pi buys shown on here are being absorbed into it.

The company have put themselves into a "over promise and under deliver" scenario yet again plus the marketing (or lack of it) is pitiful.

They need to explain to potential new investors how to gauge when orders are likely to hit CyanConnode bank accounts from the L1 awards that have been dished out in the last few months.

They won't do that for some reason quoting mostly industrial espionage which is rubbish imo.

Whether its rubbish or not it leaves investors fearful that orders will not materialise and is "currently" proven correct.

That is why the market is kicking the share price down together with current general AIM sentiment.

If they sorted the marketing out and explained how investors can gauge when the L1 orders will materialise into CyanConnode orders then I for one would buy back a very large amount of stock which I sold a while ago (stated on here at the time).

Failing that I will wait until a proven momentum of orders happens as I suspect others will.

Until then the market is as it is, nothing odd about it just that pis are out of more gambling moneies it seems and someone with a large pot wants to sell for some reason.

No doubt our thread host will buy a few more at these levels in due course.

The listings of companies on the stock market are primarily to raise capital.

CYAN has successfully done this over the years and more recently at a small premium/no discount and both the last issues have been oversubscribed. New HNIs and Fund Managers have joined the shareholder ranks and taken part in recent placings- so the share holding base is where I would expect it to be for a company of this size.

How many AIM listed companies have been able to raise capital on these terms in the last 12-18 months ?

As a B2B business operating largely in India, I don't think there is a huge lot to be gained by marketing to PIs locally. Think about all the Proactive Interviews, Directors' talk, Investor Meet interviews and face to face AGMs and Investor Meets that have happened - how many Investors actually attend ? Other senior employees like Ratna Garapati, Bjorn Lindblom have done interviews as well.

At the most recent AGM, I seem to recall that that about 8-10 investors attended.

When information is Tweeted by CYAN, some investors rubbish the same. Nothing seems worthwhile or meaningful to some. So if I were JC or HP, I would get on with running the business (which they are doing very well IMHO) as that is their day job and be left to be judged by the financial results.

Then there are the Hardman and more recently Zeus broker/research reports - again not good enough for some !

I reckon that the recent 600k contract will be worth about £8-8.5m over the lifetime of the contract - that to me is a significant "update" on progress.

As were the SiLabs collaboration, Al Fanar news, 3m Master Strategic Framework, 65+ staff recruitment, $10.7m Solid State Order, Intellismart top table tweets, Ratna Garapati interview etc over the last several months. On an average of 2-3 RNSs of relevance/significance per month.

For a company of our annual revenues and market cap this is hugely commendable.

I wonder is there are any other size wise comparable AIM listed companies that have come out with comparable/better level of significant publicly announced news over the last 6 months ?

I look forward to be enlightened :)

Good luck all !
