Good grief, there is life!!

Nasdaq:CRNT, which I hold is on fire YTD on 5G prospects. Not much happening here though.

"Not sure whether to be excited or petrified!!"

Funny that bazworth, I feel exactly the same! I've got a feeling that it's going to be a significant move any time now, the trouble is, I don't know which way.

[chrisdgb] 12/6/2018 15:01

I think it is a patient build with this one.........

[bazworth] 07/6/2018 15:10

Anyone want to buy mine, special offer for today only, 50p each.....!!!

Not sure whether to be excited or petrified!!

I will be adding here next week. Seems to have found the floor and news on 5G is expected to flow in the next 6 months.

[estienne] 31/5/2018 11:55

Results are not until 16th August. Its risky. They need a production order.

[bazworth] 28/5/2018 21:08

I’ve been patiently waiting for probably a couple of years. FTC are profitable and have orders booked, despite production & delivery having been delayed. I was hoping to see a trading statement sometime soon - there was such a statement last May.

Wow, a whole month without a post and hardly any dealings. Love it; no hot money.

I'm happy to keep adding as I don't think good news will be too far away regarding 5G and the Nokia tie up, the these share price levels will be history. IMHO

I wish the staff at ftc would get on with improving the performance of the company. All very nice these sponsored days off walking in the Yorkshire dales.

I wish us long term suffering shareholders had some spare money to give to charities.

Moan moan.

I just read the info on the N American network upgrades with Nokia



Will be nice if it's associated with the MIMO development muted earlier this month

[wisecat2] 26/4/2018 09:04

Nokia looking at a bullish longer-term outlook and expects 5G deployments to accelerate in the second half 2018, particularly in North America.

Maybe just maybe.... Anyone know a leading company in 5G

[wageslave] 26/4/2018 08:47

Seem to be heading in the right direction. News due?

[estienne] 13/4/2018 12:44

How do you know that the Nokia antenna has been built? I thought it was in development.

[gerihatrick] 12/4/2018 17:29

Estienne-you are asking the question I am asking myself. They were asked to develop the antenna for Nokia and now they have completed it. So how many are needed and at what price and margin? The unknown and more's the pity-I haven't a clue!

[estienne] 12/4/2018 09:49

What's it worth?

[john09] 11/4/2018 10:31

Bit of life. Slow reaction to this Nokia tie up but it will come

[wheeze] 09/4/2018 20:50

Is Mrs Dixon part of the Dixon family builders in Maldon ? That's an investment of almost 2.5 million.

[john09] 09/4/2018 13:56

I’m sure it will come good for her. Long term

[chrisdgb] 09/4/2018 13:50

Mrs Dixon......................!!

[angus17] 09/4/2018 10:09

I thought the Nokia China announcement might have rubbed off on ftc.

[she-ra] 06/4/2018 11:02

Yes I should have been clear on the open offer. However it still increased the number of shares in circulation.

[mesquida] 05/4/2018 20:37

She-ra, by posting 4 links you have made it look as though there have been 4 fundraisings, but surely the open offer in late 2015 was allied to the institutional placing a few months earlier. Sorry to split hairs, but I think it is only right that readers of this board are given the true facts.

[kazoom] 05/4/2018 20:06

Thanks she-ra,

I stand corrected on there being earlier fund-raises and agree therefore at face value it appears a regular event. So there certainly is that risk if they need more capex, to support the 5G growth.

It seems to me though not that big a risk, given that they have been nicely cash generative over the last 18months and at the last count had £3m on the balance sheet.

FWIW I'm watching rather than holding at this stage as I'd like to see some evidence of the growth materialising before considering investing, the possibility of a further fund-raise (even if imho remote) just adds to my caution in that respect.
