The answer to 3 - 5 of post 8715 is obvious.

It's because Cyan's share price shouldn't have been 7.7p in the first place.

The way I see it, the main players (including BoD) have acquired themselves 10%+ of the company at at least a 50% discount. Axia wanted to hold the maximum number of shares but avoiding being classified as a related party. Why would you invest so heavily in a company that you have shown little to no interest in previously?

They would never had found themselves in this position (being 9.8% shareholders) if the share price hadn't been fixed for the last 5 months or so.

As a long-term investor in Cyan, I feel like I have been completely mugged this week.

My only consolation is that I have increased my holding by 20% over the last 5 months or so and always paid 8p or less. As an investor, you shouldn't constantly be on your guard to protect yourself against your own BoD's actions.

I'll be interested to see what happens next.

Have a fun weekend.

Good morning all :)

A very warm welcome to Rivaldo - a seasoned and successful investor with quite a following ! I believe I met him at a Mello event in Derby many moons ago.

Could be an interesting day with the share price now underpinned at 9p. Let's see if the market takes note and catches up as the Directors are putting in £295k and we have a strategic investor coming in with £3m. The biggest single transaction to our equity base which will now expand by about 55.55m.

I take this fund raise as very positive and with part of the proceeds going into setting up a Hardware R&D Lab (probably in India - given cost advantage and skill base). To me this signals long term intentions for our Indian business and our overall global ambitions and on the other hand does not signal an intention to sell the whole company just yet ! Value has to be created and added to our current position it would seem.

With all these building blocks in place - UAE Office, CYAN AMISP accreditation, 6.5m meter order/$120-130m, £5m cash, a possible sale of a stake in Indian CYAN and another 200m+ meters to go after just in India with another 200m+ in RoW - let's hope we are not far off a significant re-rate in our share price !

Good luck all :)

Good morning all :)

Apologies SBP for mixing your post with that of tightfist's ! I agree with TF that AMISPs may be looking to start the RDSS projects with Cellular (for speed of implementation and to hit the 5% roll out target and get the financial incentive) and then incorporate more RF comms to overall hit the SLA performance figures - a bit of gaming that always goes on in such scenarios. I know/believe that we currently have 48% of the RF comms market share in India.

I think that we have been able to protect our margins to a better degree than expected by dangling the carrot of volumes to our component, silicon and CMEs suppliers. I am told that we should be back to circa 38% margins on our hardware and 90+% on our software - so this offers an excellent blended gross margin IMHO.

I agree with SBP on "the justification of valuation" hypothesis to validate a higher price than mere share price would justify - my thinking on those lines were posted on 05.08.2024 as #8430 and #8432 on this BB.

All in all, I am positive that our partial/majority stake sale in the Indian Cyanconnode will be a great return for us shareholders - in terms of working capital fund, market cap and hence benefit to the share price (if and when that happens). Given the growth phase of our Company I can't see it being returned to share holders at this point and it needs to be re-invested to grow us further.

Interesting times as always !

Good luck all :)

Good morning all :)

An interesting and hugely positive news "leak" with the biggest name in Indian RDSS smart meter contracts attached and the swift RNS from CYAN not denying seems to suggest that something very big is possibly afoot and close to the wire! It seems to tie in with the large trades (outsized) that I had been observing lately.

As I predicted many times on this BB, there was something strategic and massive afoot when Panmure were made Joint Broker, multiple senior leadership team recruitments, Dubai office opening, Ajoy Rajani made India CE and Vice Chairman(he was mainly handling the Intellismart account if the grapevine is to be believed) and at the Investor Meet on 31 May 2024, the possibility of an Indian IPO was not denied or ruled out....

What could be the value of CyanConnode India with its own Digismart Networks subsidiary with AMISP bidder status ?

Many ways at looking at company valuations from a sale/partial sale point of view, but Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) would lend itself well to our CYAN business model given its long term revenue visibility and margins. Market cap is not satisfactory in our case as the stock market valuation does not do justice to the revenue and potential.

I had asked some contacts to do such a calculation and was told that (without specific/detailed figures being available obviously), a heavily caveated/best guess could be in the region of about $90-100m for the Indian CyanConnode alone. Given the position we hold in India and the potential going forward, this seems to be a very plausible figure IMHO.

I guess even if the partial sale is completed, we may not get to know who the strategic partner is given the competitive nature of the RDSS contracts and NDA clauses. I also hear that the RDSS roll out may be expanded from 250m to about 330m due to increased home, flats and commercial constructions since the initial plan was envisaged - so the market is getting bigger and we are at the right place, at the right time with our AMISP status. Intellismart has contracts for about 18.91m smart meters under RDSS so far.

It appears only 11m or so smart meters have been implemented and we are awaiting news of sub contractor contracts for about 105m overall (as 116m have been awarded, 222m sanctioned in India overall).

So I expect that there is more significant news to come on this front !

Then with our new Digismart networks, I speculate that we have the potential to be bidding for another 100m+ in the fullness of time, just in India. Then we have been told of 243m RoW to go after....

So plenty to chew on, speculate and hope for !

With the BoD average price of holdings around 23p when I last checked a long time ago, one thing is crystal clear to me, our Indian subsidiary will not be a give away or sold in a fire sale - it is very highly to be a very significant premium to us as CYAN shareholders.

Remember and trust the JC track record - a man who has returned about $600m to shareholders from 5 exits....he knows how to play this and we will all benefit. I am not aware of any AIM Chairman/CE who has delivered this multiple times - O&G sector typically have one offs.

Let's hope we have our share price at a much higher place before 30th October 2024, when our Chancellor may have a few thoughts about balancing the nation's books with changes to CGT and IHT !

A busy period for me so I shall dip in when I can :)

Good luck all !

Hello tightfist!

“By the goolies”

I completely agree.

Together with the share price being at the mercy of a depressed AIM market and with the history of the BoD over promising and under delivering here over a long period of time. Also plus the timing of the Crux sale.

Now the clever part will be imo is if Cronin can somehow manage to salvage a decent stake in the Indian business for his UK shareholders.

My guess is that Intellismart will buy between 51% and 75% of the Indian business and then to raise cash they will IPO either some or all of it in India.

Then the orders come in, CyanConnode India share price rockets and most of it goes to new Indian pi,s and institutions with the remainding lesser percent staying with us.

It will be a fiscal and political success story for Intellismart.

SBP point from earlier (which forgive me I thought everyone would obviously realise this instantly) is that this completely validates our product.

And yet the share price is stagnant!!

That’s not by chance imo, it’s because Panmure still have some of Crux’s stock left to sell into any rise.

Unless JC can somehow get his UK shareholders into a big enough piece of the new Indian IPO (or similar) none of the existing shareholders (ie currently us) will see the uptake in the success of the 15 years and 70m loss investment from here to date.

He’s got to try and find a way of taking the UK holders into the new Intellismart business (currently our Indian business).

I don’t think, although I am not sure, it’s easy for a UK holder to buy stock on the Indian stock market especially with an IPO (unless you buy through a fund) and even if it is then if were paid out of this deal in cash (imo by valuing the current share price at 8 - 15p) they will likely float it with the announcement of some new orders and the price will rise on placing anyway thus you’ll have to pay more than you were bought out for here if that makes sense! Priority on the IPO may well be given to Indian nationals etc a bit like the privatisations here in the 80,s?

A bigger problem is that the risk now imo is if he barters too hard with the Indian players and they all tell him “No” then he’ll have to come back to the UK to place for money here to raise cash to stay alive and that’ll have to be done at circa 4p I would guess as he will be desperate!

He would have to step down imo again leaving a big question mark over the viability of the company.

Of course the flip to side to that is if not only Intellismart want us but others do too. Then it's a different story as of course competition makes the price rise.

It all really depends on how much they want to buy what we have got!

This deal will have to happen imo and has been planned for a long, long time.

Look at all the connections between the staff in India and the Smart metering industry in India.

My guess is that it will also have happened by the forth coming AGM - unless of course he says no one can attend again like he did last year!! : )

Empanelment Of Digismart Networks For Cellular Deployment In India

CyanConnode Holdings plc (LSE: CYAN), a global leader in Narrowband Radio Frequency (RF) Smart Mesh Networks, is pleased to announce that DigiSmart Networks Private Limited (DigiSmart), a wholly owned subsidiary of CyanConnode Private Ltd, has now been certified to deploy Cellular technology as an Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP). This new certification complements the Omnimesh RF Network certification obtained on 22 May 2024.

The certification issued by REC Ltd, (formerly known as the Rural Electrification Corporation Limited which is ultimately owned by the Ministry of Power), is valid until 23 June 2028. This certification recognises DigiSmart's adherence and compliance with the stringent specifications set out in the Request for Empanelment, enabling DigiSmart to bid directly as an AMISP under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) for smart prepaid metering in India on a Design, Build, Finance, Own, Operate, and Transfer (DBFOOT) basis.

This additional certification substantially strengthens CyanConnode's strategic position in India, enabling broader participation in the national smart meter rollout The certification allows the Company to offer a variety of technologies, including third-party cellular and hybrid models tailored to each deployment. With over 3 million Omnimesh Modules already deployed across India, CyanConnode, through its subsidiary DigiSmart, is now positioned to bid directly for major projects throughout the country.

John Cronin, Executive Chairman of CyanConnode, commented:

"We are extremely pleased with DigiSmart's latest certification which enables CyanConnode, through Digismart, to directly bid for smart metering projects across India. This achievement is a testament to our commitment to providing cutting-edge technology solutions and reinforces our strategic position in the Indian market. With 15 years of successful operations in India and a robust order book, CyanConnode is uniquely positioned to drive the evolution of smart metering systems and thereby support the Government of India's vision for energy modernisation. Certifications for both RF and Cellular technologies uniquely position us to directly bid for significant projects across India, and provide the technology best suited to each project."

Good morning all :)

Fantastic news ! A step change in ambition, scope and scale and looks like CYAN would have tied up the funding in principle ? The Standard Bidding Document required various financial criteria to be met before REC empanelment. So looks like we may have gained some strong financial backers/institutional investors or infrastructure/sovereign wealth funds and will have a go at the remaining phase 2 RDSS bidding. To me this could be the "something big" that I felt was on the cards given the flurry of RNS in the middle of last month.

Let's see what the market thinks !

Good luck all :)

Empanelment of CyanConnode India Subsidiary as an AMISP

CyanConnode Holdings plc (LSE: CYAN), a global leader in narrowband radio frequency (RF) smart mesh networks, is pleased to announce that the wholly owned subsidiary of its Indian entity, Digismart Networks Private Limited (Digismart), has qualified and been certified to participate in the upcoming smart metering tenders as an Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP).

Following a rigorous testing process, Digismart has successfully demonstrated an end-to-end Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) prepaid solution on its Omnimesh RF network. The certification, valid until 13 May 2026, was issued by REC Ltd. (a Public Sector Undertaking under Ministry of Power, Govt. of India) in recognition of Digismart's adherence to the specifications outlined in the Request for Empanelment. This certification enables Digismart to bid directly as an AMISP under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) for smart prepaid metering in India on a Design, Build, Finance, Own, Operate, and Transfer (DBFOOT) basis.

This certification provides a strategic boost to CyanConnode in India, which is steadily increasing its footprint as the nationwide rollout of smart meters continues to gain momentum. CyanConnode's current order book stands at 6.6 million units, of which 3 million have already been dispatched. Through Digismart, the Company would be responsible for the end-to-end execution of smart metering projects, from meter supply to Meter Data Management (MDM).

This empanelment allows Digismart to engage directly in significant projects, further integrating CyanConnode's advanced RF technology into critical infrastructure projects across India.

John Cronin, Executive Chairman of CyanConnode, commented:

"The AMISP certification for Digismart is significant for CyanConnode as it puts us at the forefront of India's rapidly evolving smart metering landscape. Having been active in India for 15 years, and executing our first project a decade ago, we understand this country exceptionally well and are ideally placed to execute projects and meet the vision and standards set by the Government. We are now well-positioned to contribute to the modernization of India's energy management systems and further strengthen our presence in the market."

Well, from what I can see, these Investor Presentations can have a positive (albeit temporarily) impact on the share price.

10/08/21 presentation - share price was 12.75p
19/11/21 three months later - share price was 26p (i.e. up 100%)

08/12/22 presentation - share price was again 12.75p
03/02/23 two months later - share price was 22.5p (i.e. up 76%)

Good afternoon DTB and all :)

I gather that the Audit process which is tremendously time and resource intensive was done differently in the past and used to be initiated after the end of the FY and took several months and (potentially years off HP's life) due to the complexity and bespoke nature of various contracts. Now I gather that the "Audits" are being done on a monthly basis and therefore more of a running tally - hence a lot quicker as it is an ongoing process.

This is how I believe the "materially exceeds market expectations" was arrived at pretty soon after the close of the FY. With regards to how much (quantum) of a material outperformance, it is possible that this is being delayed/could come down to a defensible interpretation of various Audit or IFRS rules on "revenue recognition" and maybe a second/more senior opinion is being sought ?

Despite stellar results and 80% of 2025 revenues in the bag, what should have been a brilliant day for CYAN share price was overshadowed by the Crux sale of circa 5m shares. Contracts will land definitely, but these are pretty brutal times for investors on the whole and one needs to be patient.

Good luck all !
