ghastly figures, have to read a lot of narrative before they're disclosed: the only decent part of this is Kx but that's not profitable for another 2 years at best.

1x sales is pretty cheap for a business which is software (in part). Not getting involved, but seems bit extreme. I mean you could probably break the business up and see decent value.

[bulltradept] 24/10/2023 08:40

[bulltradept] 24/10/2023 07:21

[badger36] 11/9/2023 12:09

KX revenue: 2019 80.2m, 2023 80m
What an amazing 5 year journey.
The watershed moment partnership with Microsoft resulting in 0 additional revenue but rest assured, the promised land of AI is now just visible over the hill, because time series data is somehow now useful for language processing despite never having been useful for it at any time in the preceding 20 years.
As usual no mention of the body shopping business which is now 72% of revenues vs 40% in 2019, because need to keep pretending its a software biz.
Another 650k for Seamus, 413k for Ryan and of course 200 for Donna.
The fun part will be to see in May what % of profits just these 3's comp is.

FD Technologies plc issued an upbeat trading update for the year ended February 28th 2023. Group revenue is expected to be up 12% to approximately £296m, Group EBITDA is expected to be approximately £35m with strong performances at KX and First Derivative offset by a weak demand environment at MRP. The balance sheet improved to net cash position at the year end of £0.4m compared to net debt of £7.4m at end August 2022.The business is extending its trajectory of solid and reasonably profitable growth. Valuation is a cloud, forward PE ratio at nearly 40x is unhelpful, the share price also lacks positive momentum. FDP is a decent quality, mid-cap Tech name worth monitoring for the longer run, but there is no rush to buy....
