These are the first full years results for the CEO and should be known by now, it will be interesting to see how they play the announcement, If worse or equal to 2017 I would be inclined to get them out asap so not to overshadow any positive tech updates or deals.

Am sure institutional investors (Miton) will be interested as these will be first full year results after further (April) investment.

Interesting few weeks ahead!

IMHO

[bonio10000] 21/1/2019 12:38

Only from the share presentations.

If the pipeline is true and advanced, then there must be something due to drop soon.

I can't see IM having the balls to announce another set of results without a sweetener.

Maybe the reason for the next US trip?

[mcsean2164] 21/1/2019 11:53

A game changing deal in two weeks would be fantastic. Is there any visibility on the deal pipeline?

[chriscallen] 21/1/2019 11:39

Well said bonio10000. I am now confident that a game changing deal will be announced within the next two weeks if your forecasts are as good as mine... though in my case the time period is about 48 hrs.

[bonio10000] 21/1/2019 09:33

Well said - there is zero chance you are going to miss a game changing deal.

Some time this year the price will be 12p. But the risk is high, the spread is large and, as the time is not here yet (imo) it is likely to go down before it goes up.

Why would I want to tie up my cash for months at a 20% premium to where I think it's probably going?

I may well miss the boat and good luck to all if I do.

Hornblower. Don't be a pr*ck for a tick. If your quick there are 50k on the offer at 7.895

[horneblower] 21/1/2019 08:27

sideshowbull,
Not yet. I'm still waiting to get in around 7p.
The round bottom pattern usually has a strong symmetricality and if this is to follow the normal pattern some more time needs to pass (perhaps a couple of months) before the breakout occurs.

I was Watching some YouTube videos of car crashes at the Nuremberg ring but so needed Blackbird so you can rewind and frame advance those crashes!

Frustrating YouTube

And they all need replacing with 4K plus high resolution quality.

Fed into Ai facial recognition Cloud services.

Not sure we have the resources to go after that market at the moment.

circa 2m surveillance cameras out there in the uk alone.

vast majority private sector. estimates are ~2% state sponsored.

[sideshowbull] 20/1/2019 19:56

Horne, did you enter on the round bottom? Who doesn't like a round bottom?

I have always loved FBT regardless.

Cabi1, I'll have to agree to disagree on that one....

[cabi1] 20/1/2019 16:09

McSean. Works both ways. Blackbird looks cool, because it’s on MSFT stand. I know where I’d rather be.

[horneblower] 20/1/2019 15:56

mcsean2164, I agree.
Blackbird may have great qualities that are specific to a discrete section of industry. It works in the cloud and inevitably entails the use of a cloud enabler such as Microsoft Azure. But to the blackbird user, Azure is, and should be, irrelevant.

[mcsean2164] 20/1/2019 15:39

Cabi1,

I didn't say co-sell status was a bad thing, I said exhibiting with Microsoft is a bad thing for fbt. The majors look cool when they surround themselves with 'exciting' companies, the companies surrounding the majors look like gimps.

IM on LinkedIn is saying looking forward to going back to the US in Feb. He is the CEO, in my eyes the marketing team should be feeding c suite clients for meetings with him. He shouldn't be out there beating the street, especially as he doesn't understand the tech

[horneblower] 20/1/2019 15:39

"blackbird" A suitable name for dark arts in the cloud!

[paulcon1] 20/1/2019 15:25

A bit geeky and not cool but this aspect of FBT interests me going forward:

'Whether you work in the armed services, a governmental department or in private industry, Blackbird Security and Surveillance Cloud is the ideal solution for helping you analyse live and non-live video footage in the cloud. Using state-of-the-art artificial intelligence through our partnership with Veritone, our solution can rapidly identify any person or natural and non-natural object in any environment – saving you hours and hours sifting through video footage'

You are filtering me? What again!

Say it isn't so?

Good luck with your investment

[nickb] 19/1/2019 09:47

Mcsean
I am going to have to put you back on filter if you don’t even realise that LA is the beating heart of the global video industry and you cannot understand why IM should be in LA or the US in general and also that at a massive trade show it’s better to be on Microsoft Azure stand with it’s A list executive footfall looking for Cloud solutions rather than a little U.K. company stand hidden away then that’s a strange way of looking at things.

So Filtered again.

[nickb] 19/1/2019 09:38

I have to say you are either not really a shareholder and you are playing this board (yes it happens on advfn😮) or you are not cut out for this type of investing.

Cabi1

All of your points maybe true, I have not seen any evidence yet though. The year end figures will confirm the performance of the team in 2018.

The CEO buying shares in the company is standard, does back up his enthusiasm without doubt but lets be honest, for him, it is a success, he bought at 6.50p at it stands at 8.18p. Kerching!

The fact that I need to 'stalk' the Linkedin page of the CEO and his likes to garner what's going on bothers me.

GL and IMHO
