No one seems to excited today regarding the announcement about the ability to take payments via live chat, I suspect that this may prove to be a HUGE selling point over the months and years to come

[greg the grinch] 25/1/2017 09:52

Shaping up nicely. Not just secure payments.... call centre £ should keep growing.. plus voice payments for when Iot kicks in... etc

:O)

Significant contract win with leading UK mobile operator

through Capita partnership

Eckoh (AIM: ECK), the global provider of secure payment products and customer contact solutions, announces that it has secured a significant new four-year contract with its UK channel partner, Capita Customer Management ("Capita"), to provide its advanced call management technology to a leading Mobile Virtual Network Operator ("MVNO").

Eckoh and Capita will collaborate to deliver EckohROUTE, which offers contact centres cloud-based call distribution and management, real-time dashboard reporting, self-service integration and the flexibility to integrate with other systems. Hosted on Eckoh's carrier-grade platform, the service will enable the client to manage call delivery and distribution, emergency prompts, emergency call delivery and opening times. Eckoh will initially develop a number of self-service applications for the MVNO that fully integrate with EckohROUTE. Eckoh's hosted platform will also allow the client to fulfil its longer term customer self-service functionality objectives.

Since the partnership was created in 2013, Eckoh has won three new contracts via Capita, worth a total of GBP15.0m in revenues to Eckoh over the life of those agreements, and this latest contract further builds on this figure and the Company's successful partnership. The service is planned to go live in the spring of 2017.

Nik Philpot, Chief Executive Officer at Eckoh, commented: "We are delighted to be working with Capita on this significant new customer contact solutions contract. With the deployment of our sophisticated and proven call management solution, the client will be able to offer an unparalleled, responsive customer self-service experience. Today's announcement reinforces our market-leading position in delivering call management infrastructure solutions as well as demonstrating the value of our strategic channel partner relationships."

Significant contract announced this morning. Should attract attention in this direction.

Worldpay buyout at £1 would be nice.

Can't criticise ECK's timing re the purchase of the US assets:

1) Bought when Sterling was high
2) Revenues when Sterling is low

[hydrus] 29/11/2016 09:49

I've taken a few off the back of the revenue growth although must admit earlier than I normally would as haven't completed normal research. I like recurring revenue models and they are clearly moving towards that.

[mylands] 29/11/2016 08:58

Must be back above 50p in the short term IMO.

[reallyrich] 29/11/2016 08:46

Yep Mylands

great results

[mylands] 29/11/2016 08:40

Wow, what a performance in the US and no mention of the falling pound and how that is boosting the US revenues from £31k to £4 million!

I should correct that as the figures are in sterling not dollars. Still, future revenue will be helped by the fall in Sterling, which would not have been factored in pre the Brexit vote and definitely do not seem to have been reflected in the share price over the past six months.

[reallyrich] 29/11/2016 08:15

Hi Hydrus

hope these results and outlook give an idea about the high value

[reallyrich] 27/11/2016 13:12

Hi Hydrus

I would imagine given the American growth prospects give a higher rating.

Also I am not entirely disputing your PE 64 but on iii it is shown as 45

[...]

and hargreves 45

hxxp://www.hl.co.uk/shares/shares-search-results/e/eckoh-plc-ordinary-0.25p

I suppose that is based upon current share price..


Anyway Tuesday will bring good news and further upside in share price

[hydrus] 27/11/2016 07:01

Really rich - it might be a one-off but it puts the company on a PE of 64. Even with projected double digit growth that is a very high rating. I am trying to understand what it is specifically that makes this an attractive entry point. Perhaps if someone has calculated what they think next years earnings will be that will help me. Any comments on this specific point welcome thanks.

[reallyrich] 27/11/2016 00:53

Hydrus did you read why? It was a one off!!


Apart from that this company has constant double digit growth each year. Cash flow positive, cash in the bank, and the expansion in America gaining traction all the time. Read all the previous RNS nothing but good news.

Anyway lets see what the 29th brings

[hydrus] 26/11/2016 19:07

Sorry to clarify the 0.61 EPS is last years performance

[hydrus] 26/11/2016 19:06

The latest trading statement said:' it is expected that the Company's pre-tax profits for the year to 31 March 2017 will be below market expectations and is expected to be in line with the performance last year'Does that mean 0.61 EPS expected also because if so I'm trying to understand why this is on such a high rating. Any thoughts on this appreciated.

[greg the grinch] 25/11/2016 18:43

Apple picking?

[septimus quaid] 24/11/2016 20:30

Surely this must be ripe for the picking!

[mazarin] 24/11/2016 16:59

Over the 12 years that I l've held ECK, I've often wondered why Thursday just happens to result in share price movement. It may be due to some weird timetable as adopted by larger investors, of which Kestrel has notably been one for some time. Movement that is usually followed by more the same the next day - we'll soon see, time will tell....!

[septimus quaid] 24/11/2016 13:14

This is more like it, back to the ECK of old

[greg the grinch] 23/11/2016 22:26

Steady rise from here.

[reallyrich] 23/11/2016 13:37

well I topped up again today.

[septimus quaid] 23/11/2016 08:52

Re last night's RNS, hopefully better minds than mine think these are a worthwhile punt.
