Just need some new investors who really understand this opportunity.
Sadly it seems some here still don’t which is a shame

Why doesn’t IM mention cowboy boot Friday ? Employees love it!

Good post....

As you say the interview is jargon-heavy and I agree with your CEO sentiment. I still think the tech/product is unique and ground breaking but there is a palpable disconnect between the potential selling of the product and the actual selling which is concerning.

Clutching at straws I know but maybe NAB New York 17-18th October will spark some interest.

Still not completely sure if FBT have a specified strategy

The small investment is 5.17% of the share capital making him and his family the 2nd largest individual shareholder after SS. If the focus on OEM and business is wrong then IM could be accused of not understanding the significance of the product but that's not proven. The year end will see if the company is now on the right course and getting significant market penetration.
Isn't a customer centric R&D company an accurate way of describing the way it was run pre IM?

Hi Paul,

The start is very stilted but mention of his family strengthens the proposition as it implies he has skin in the game, (in reality that investment is small but it sounds good).

2mb sticks out as significant but then on reflection, who cares. People might buy into the secret sauce but what benefits accrue from it?

If their solution is useful it should be sold to a big video streaming company and the fact that it hasn't been sold suggests it's not useful.

Lots of jargon lead me to believe IM doesn't understand the product. Apart from 2mb there's no meat on the bone. It needs to be, buy blackbird because of this burning problem in the other environments.

The opening line is hilarious, "Forbidden Technologies could really be described as a customer-centric R&D company for many years", that's like saying cigarettes can be described as the cure for cancer.

I'm trying to see a positive but can't. It's still the same product nobody wants run by a guy who can't sell it and doesn't understand it. Hopefully will see a silver lining tomorrow...

And that’s why some of us can buy up cheap shares 😀

Hi....

Overall I thought a good interview, definitely bigin up the tech, they have to back these claims with contract action.

The 'family investment' comment seemed odd to me, maybe Miton invested more on the understanding that IM and Co were also financially committed. Pure spec of course.

Any thoughts?

" developed at a fraction of the cost of less appropriate solutions built by large corporates."

Great way to do business with large corporates...

[geheimnis2] 12/10/2018 11:14

“Thanks to these various stakeholders, what we have is a world-leading, unique technology that has been developed at a fraction of the cost of less appropriate solutions built by large corporates.”

Got to realise what they are trying to do is very difficult indeed.

I do think they may just pull it off!

Investors need to appreciate just how far they have come.

At a fraction of the cost...

That was a great interview by Ian.

[chriscallen] 11/10/2018 16:21

Hi Nick, He's on the LinkedIn site for FBT under employees as Chairman. They have IM and Huw on there so it's not a dead site that has been overlooked.
