You may well be correct, but it all has an end-of-financial-year feel to it. Sells in the morning, all buys thereafter. Surprised that it didn't reverse some of the morning losses though. LTI on the other site has posted a link to the latest Zeus update. As ITT says, we really need news of new orders to get things moving. It would also be good if the company could see their way to updating us on how the existing orders are progressing. Fat chance. (Or to be more politically correct, circumferentially-challenged chance).

I expect it to drop a bit further yet

....I wonder what our Indian shareholder S. Chari makes of it......

[derek ten bag] 02/4/2024 11:22

Looks like we've been left to hold the fort ITT. I'm rather hoping the current state of play is to do with year end issues. Some losses being realised for tax purposes? Not my area of expertise, but I'm struggling to equate where we are with the orders we have, the revenues we have and the positive update last December.

Hi DTB

Thanks - hope you had a good long weekend.

This is so disappointing. The company is now worth less than a half of what it was 12 months ago.

An update isn't going to help the share price Only a series of new contract wins will do that.

How many General Elections do they have in India? Every time we go into this kind of torpor the excuse is that we are waiting until the election is over. Seems like they have them every couple of months. We must be due an update soon. Surely?

And a happy Easter to you ITT and to all our fellow travellers. Big piece on the Indian economy in today's FT. Some fresh snow on the hills up here in The People's Republic. At least we're back to normal footie and rugby. All good.

Hi DTB

Yes, really quiet. We might have to wait until beyond 04/06/2024'ish (Indian General Election result) before knowing what's going on.

What's another two months or so in the scheme of things.

Happy Easter.

All gone very quiet on here. I did read the December FY24 Interim Results and I still think it read pretty well. And since then we have had the Montecarlo order and the Thailand LOA. But we really need to hear a bit more from the company to get things moving. Preferably UP!

Amazing how people continue to flush money down Cyan Commode

[derek ten bag] 22/3/2024 08:52

And let's face it, ITT, what's your spleen for if it's not for venting.

[inthetin] 22/3/2024 08:40

Hi DTG

Not really - just venting. As a shareholder, it's my prerogative. Obviously, it's up to others how they react (or not) if/when they feel a tad let down by the BoD.

Have a fun weekend.

Cheers

ITT, you really are a mystery wrapped up in an enigma. One minute it is the end of civilisation as we know it and we're doomed Captain Mainwaring, doomed I tell ye, the next you're topping up. It would be easier to understand quantum physics. Anyway, good to get some posters back today and to hear that you have added to your holding. Odd day's trading though; very low volume in the morning and mostly sells, much healthier now and some good buys among the sells. Who can understand it? I'm assuming there's a certain element of year-ending involved but who knows. Good luck with the toe you dipped in the water today.

[inthetin] 21/3/2024 13:24

Just dipped a toe back in (10,694 @ 9.375p). Probably a tad early but I don't believe that there's going to be fundraise anytime soon.

The mood music will eventually change.

Hi Tightfist

I can see why you’d think the above. One potential issue is that JC famously said recently “it’s time to ride the wave” and has aligned the business and expenditure accordingly. If you’re right, how many rounds of fundraising could we be looking at? Bearing in mind the river usually runs dry pretty quickly if fundraising becomes habitual.

MC with cynical hat on.

[tightfist] 21/3/2024 12:16

Hi DTB, Yes….. in the meantime my SPECULATION is that there is a lot of hard bargaining proceeding in India, regarding awarding large contracts and/or corporate action - hence the prolonged silence.
.
Pure speculation however, or is it “Confirmation Bias” in action - DYOR!
.
BTW, I am looking for substantial revenue uplift (upon supply) in the next few years - significant revenue from maintenance (recurring income) is still a few years away, as I view it.
.
That Recurring Income should eventually become the valuable part, as the (failed) Bid for SMS recently confirmed. It could be worth your while looking at YU. group, to see a business that is rapidly gaining traction across the Smart Meter spectrum, within the UK. tightfist

Hi DTB

My guess is that the 'knowledgeable people' have left the building a while ago.

Share 'holders' are no good to the BoD. They are only interested in the people who can provide new cash for new shares.

We're going to have to wait until we're beyond the 31/03/2024 and they've got an idea of how the year has panned out, which could be a few months away.

Feeling a bit abandoned here. Any of the knowledgeable people on here like to give an assessment of what is going on. We got a sizeable order in January and a 'significant' LOA in February but since then, nada. Our existing order book is generating an income. It would be good if the company had the courtesy to give us an update. Not too much to ask.

[derek ten bag] 19/3/2024 17:17

After a slightly hairy morning we are, amazingly, in the blue. Hard to know what's going on but certainly a number of solid buys this afternoon. Let's hope it continues tomorrow. My nerves are getting a little bit frayed. The other thread has been positively bipolar today, swinging from the calmly rational to the almost unhinged. Decent news would help the faithful JC, if you are listening.

[derek ten bag] 18/3/2024 10:37

Thanks for that CousinIT. Interesting stuff from Vascular on the other site apropos the direction of the messaging.

[cousinit] 18/3/2024 10:27

DTB - I can't see JC posting this unless he thought it would have a positive effect. This is a flagship project in India and no doubt a number of key people will not want to 'nickel and dime' on the technology if it undermines the long term benefits.

If he doesn't expect it to have any effect then it is just airing sour grapes in public, which seems out of kilter with his long experience in public markets.

[derek ten bag] 18/3/2024 09:28

Thanks HBR. The problem, as I have said, is that we have no idea from the article to what extent CC has been affected by the issue or of this is simply an attempt to focus minds on our product. As I've also said, we have already deployed our product in several territories and its benefits over the medium and longer term must be becoming obvious, in terms of overall costs and reliability. JC should be making the case based on customer experience. Again, it's a communications thing as far as I'm concerned.

[homebrewruss] 18/3/2024 09:17

The article was posted on LinkedIn, not sure it's been posted anywhere else

[derek ten bag] 18/3/2024 09:14

But therein lies the problem. Without context for the article these negative interpretations come into play. Understandably. Very disappointing. We need the India team to up their game. It also underlines the importance of our other markets. Be good to hear from Multi and our other perceptive contributors.

[daddy warbucks] 18/3/2024 09:01

It sounds to me that the main contractors are using the cheaper versions rather than Cyans product.
