I hope so. The dribble of selling may be people seeing yield elsewhere if they have given up on growth here. If they don't grow the top line then it's finished or shake-up needed in management and some new blood.

They are talking of spending more on sales and marketing.
They do also seem to be making progress in new verticals.

Both these factors should hopefully see them raising revenues.

[p1nkfish] 26/6/2024 15:24

Needs proof of top-line moving up.
Not much more they can do to improve margins. Lean enough.
Do they have something new their market wants and can they go sell it?
This would move nicely if there was some useful traction at the top line.

% fall from 140-180p is quite a shock

[thaiger] 17/6/2024 09:19

Probably following a Director, S. White, who is related to Kestrel Partner selling 100,000 @ 139.72 on 31st May. Good timing??

[rossco] 16/6/2024 20:10

I wonder what caused the sudden sell off?

[p1nkfish] 14/6/2024 14:27

They need a convuncing plan for top line growth with proof it's working.

[red ninja] 14/6/2024 14:08

Market seems to be in retreat at moment generally due to :-

Summer doldrums
Election Depression : isn't there a decent party to vote for ?
Investors impatient for interest rate cuts
Maybe impatient investors wanting more from Ingenta even
etc etc

[wjccghcc] 14/6/2024 14:00

Well that was weird. Managed to buy back most of mine at sub 104p.

[p1nkfish] 03/6/2024 06:30

So someone sold 100K and someone bought 100K.
Will this be the seller done for a while?
Helps explain some of the recent price performance.

Totally agree richjp.
Top line growth critical else a complete value trap. Such growth would also increase any sale value very nicely as it falls through. What could ING acquire if not sold?

[richjp] 30/5/2024 15:51

The problem is the growth is so slow.

After all the reorganisation and operational streamlining they have done, I think it is ripe for a takeover. The question us how much will anyone be prepared to pay.

[smithie6] 28/5/2024 10:02

shareholder assets are up £1.6m imo. (9.2-3.6= £5.6m for '23; 2022 = 8.6-4.6= £4m
£5.6m-£4m
= £1.6m

pretty good.
and paid out £500k in divis, so real increase in assets if had not paid any divi = 1.6+ 0.5
= £2.1m

the co. cap. value is too low imo for that annual increase.

-----------

some mixed results.
USA turnover impressive % increase, & hopefully more to come.
UK turnover down. not impressive.

well, surely a lot more opportunities in USA than in the smaller UK
...in 2024 perhaps we will see USA be bigger than that for the UK, which I assume would be a first.

------

15.5p diluted eps.
share price p/e is <10, which is surely far too cheap

No IMC = no investor meet company meeting (unlike last year and the last two interims, all of which saw management present to private investors).

[smithie6] 28/5/2024 07:43

....new venture in to the music IP sector has done very well. Well done ING.

[smithie6] 28/5/2024 07:36

lease payments.
leasing liabilities paid off.

anyone understand that ?

given up some offices ?
can we expect profit to rise as a result ?
annual impact ?

[somerset lad] 28/5/2024 07:31

Good results. Pity no IMC.

[p1nkfish] 28/5/2024 07:14

They have optimised efficiency.
Emphasis mine.

"Having won a number of key new customer accounts, and demonstrated that with our streamlined operating structure we can deliver new business more profitably, we are EXPECTING ANY NEW FUTURE REVENUES TO MAKE A SUBSTANTIAL CONTRIBUTION TO OUR PROFITS AND CASH FLOWS."

Top line growth will largely drop through to the bottom.
I think top line will grow given the foundation set.

DYOR etc.

Ingenta PLC - Oxford, England-based provider of software and services to the publishing industry - Says it intends to release its 2023 results this month, noting that underlying trading performance is expected to be as it announced in January. ‘Current trading continues to be in line with management expectations, with cash flow ahead of budget and the company on track to deliver a further year of solid progress,’ Ingenta says.

[z1co] 20/5/2024 11:04

The company said on Friday cash flow to date for the current has been has been ahead of expectations.

Another year of solid growth and most likely increased dividend.

Cash at 31/12/2023 was £2.7m , will be interesting to know how much it's increased so far this year.
