18/10/2018 22:04	Fizzy pop, looks like you were right. Having been through my trades I managed to increase my shareholding by 7% and am now fully back in. It would have been more like 15% but I started selling to early in the low 140's just before the recent acquisition announcements (slightly unluckily). Ideagen has traded in a range for 3 years and I just reckon there is plenty of extra money to be made by trading that range by having a view on the valuation the business is trading at. Above 175 range (if it gets there quickly) its a sell again.	leavers	Read Full Thread Reply
15/10/2018 14:31	News of a nice upgrade from a multinational which gives some idea of the regard in which IDEA are held: Https://www.ideagen.com/company/news/sgs-uses-pentana-audit-for-their-global-internal-audit-operations/ "SGS uses Pentana Audit for their global internal audit operations Monday, October 15, 2018 SGS adopted Pentana Audit software from Ideagen as it looks to enhance the corporate internal auditing of its business processes across 2,400 offices and laboratories globally. Being a Pentana customer for more than 10 years, SGS decided to upgrade to Pentana Audit to help its internal audit function of around 20 auditors to better and more efficiently manage audits, risks, controls and field work. The company has a global presence and operates across various industries such as Agriculture and Food, Chemical, Construction, Consumer, Energy, Industrial, Life Sciences, Mining, Oil and Gas, Public Sector and Transportation.... .....The system provides data for all SGS offices. Different audit cycles and SGS business processes are placed into Pentana Audit, as well as last audit results, to automatically provide proposals for audit coverage and a complete risk and control visualisation. A global risk has been set up to rank all SGS operations. The system is used also to pull easily audit result data so they can be presented to SGS management and board. etc"	rivaldo	Read Full Thread Reply

08/10/2018 16:53	Hi leavers. I went in at 153p for 17,000 shares so a little premature but already bounced back to 144p this afternoon. I am sure we will both be rewarded well. Good to hear from you.	fizzypop	Read Full Thread Reply
08/10/2018 16:23	Fizzypop, I just bought back £45,000 of my position to add to those I bought around 150p recently to take it back to 80% ish of normal holding, having sold from 145p up to 170p. Time to be back in fully I suspect.	leavers	Read Full Thread Reply

05/10/2018 21:17	Hi Rivaldo Sorry - my post wasn't clear. RNS 23/03/17 announcing the 2017 LTIP awarded Spenceley / Dorks / Kent 1,200,000 options each at 1p. At today's share price of circa 150p, that's circa £5.4m - yes, I accept that it wasn't worth that at the time of the award, but it's a lot of money - excessive, in my view. I see your interpretation re your 3rd point; not sure I agree. Looking at the (presumably summary) of the LTIP conditions, in order for the full award to be made the share price has to exceed 136p for 30 consecutive business days - from a quick glance, I suspect that has been achieved just now. What happens if the price subsequently drops isn't spelt out in the 23/03/17 RNS. IF it says that the share price has to exceed 136p for THE 30 days prior to exercising the option, I reckon today's announcement could be in the "bird in the hand" category for 50% of the award. Regardless, I'm not keen on such levels of remuneration, especially relative to profits. Others may be more relaxed, given growth etc. That's why we don't all buy the same shares! Good luck to all holders.	garbetklb	Read Full Thread Reply
05/10/2018 12:26	As regards Garbetklb's post, firstly a total of 1.8m shares have been issued, i.e at the current price around £2.7m (no idea where his £5.2m comes from). Secondly, only one director fully sold their resulting shares. The other two have only sold 50% of their additional shares - enough only to cover costs and income tax payable (which would of course be taxed at the higher rate of 40%). Thirdly, the early exercise of the LTIP shares - without a full resultant sale - is a GOOD sign. This is usually done because the people exercising wish to minimise their tax liability by exercising early rather than waiting, since they presumably believe that by waiting the share price will rise sufficiently such that they would have a much higher income tax liability.	rivaldo	Read Full Thread Reply

05/10/2018 09:41	I don't hold IDEA, but it's a share I've had on my watch list. Until today. The early exercise of the 2017 LTIP (which appeared pretty generous) looks like sheer greed. One of my key filters is "Are management reasonably rewarded?" This looks like a reward to the 3 directors of about £5.2m from a company who declared a statutory profit of £1.5m........ My personal experience is that such executive greed results in an unhappy workplace - I prefer to invest in happy companies as I perceive them to perform better. I'd love to be corrected if I've misunderstood......	garbetklb	Read Full Thread Reply

03/10/2018 16:04	MMs suckering sellers to get some stock? A few sellers around on a quiet day? A bit of understandable profit-taking after the vertiginous rise? Who knows/ What we do know is there's no new news, so just take pleasure in the last few years' outperformance and relax :o))	rivaldo	Read Full Thread Reply

28/9/2018 11:22	Nice review on Techmarketview: Http://www.techmarketview.com/ukhotviews/archive/2018/09/28/ideagens-latest-acquisition-morgan-kai "Friday 28 September 2018 Morgan Kai: more audit management capability for Ideagen The latest acquisition by Ideagen sees it increase its internal audit management capability with the £20.5m cash purchase of Morgan Kai. This was an area of the market Ideagen moved into with the purchase of Pantana in 2013 so the new asset has a home to move into. It fits with Ideagen’s strategic goals of acquiring GRC companies with their own IP and rising recurring revenue. Morgan Kai (bases in Leeds and Chicago) also brings more international business as 77% of its customer base is outside the UK, where customers include the Federal Reserve, Investec, the New York Stock Exchange, Bombardier and Blue Cross Blue Shield; UK customers include the National Audit Office and Anglo Dutch Shell. As a provider to highly regulated vertical markets including public sector, banking and finance, engineering, healthcare and energy, it aligns with Ideagen’s focus on supplying information management to highly regulated sectors. With 28 staff and a £5.3m revenue run rate, Morgan Kai is a relatively small but potentially profitable addition that is expected to add £2m additional EBITDA for the year to 30 April 2020. It has the makings of another useful addition to the Ideagen portfolio. The overall goal of the company is to sustain the doubling of revenues and adjusted EBITDA every three years. Earlier this year it rejigged the management structure: former CEO, David Hornsby became Executive Chairman with a remit around strategy, M&A and Investor Relations, while Ben Dorks (former Chief Customer Officer) took Hornsby’s position as CEO to focus on operational performance, customer acquisition and retention, and product development. So far so good while the most recent full year saw the 9th year of consecutive growth."	rivaldo	Read Full Thread Reply
