23/1/2019 08:58	7th of February isn't it?	zcaprd7	Read Full Thread Reply
18/1/2019 10:21	Well the 6 months is well and truly up now, so how long before the first rumours start again? And would the board be so quick to say no again if an offer was pitched at the same level?	argylerich	Read Full Thread Reply

02/12/2018 19:08	I guess that the Galileo EU/U.K. spat is well appreciated and probably discounted in the ISAT price.If the UK goes on develop its own system could this be good news for Inmarsat? ...Are they capable of fulfilling such a requirement if requested or would wheels start grinding in the background to get the company tied up with a corporate partner. Britain intends to build its own satellite navigation system after being frozen out of the EU's Galileo project by Brussels because of Brexit. “After months of fruitless negotiation over the space programme and after sinking £1.2 billion into the project, Theresa May said the UK would aim to build its own system instead.” Daily Telegraph 1Dec 2018	steeplejack	Read Full Thread Reply

24/11/2018 12:20	Aggregate short positions now negligible, just Merian (ex Old Mutual) with a reducing short, now down to 1.07%. All the others are below the reporting threshold. Overall short now down to levels last seen in the second half of 2016. Draw your own conclusions; mine is that this is a reasonably positive signal for future direction.	bluemango	Read Full Thread Reply

10/11/2018 09:03	Well that was painful. If this is all down to lower maritime growth and overall profit then perhaps more attention should be paid to aviation growth. By my calculations if aviation continues to grow at 30% per quarter it will overtake maritime revenue in less that 3 quarters. Have I got that wrong? That's without EAN which is now slated for early 2019. State owned Indian partner applied for permissiom to build IAN this week with 500 towers. I've not yet researched Indian air mile and internet usage growth but would guess it's not small.	ortis23	Read Full Thread Reply

08/11/2018 19:10	Sentiment isn’t helped by the fact that ISAT appears on Dr Edward Altman’s “Red” warning list on his Z-score system.Altman contrived a method in the 1960s of identifying companies likely to go bust.He looked at various ratios and boasts a 72% accuracy rate.Anyway,Inmarsat ,along with companies like Mitchell and Butler and Debenhams are flashing red.Its a worry because one senses the management are pursuing what could prove to be disappointingly low margins in a very competitive aviation market when it comes to inflight systems,while maritime continues to struggle.An inability to do simple cash flow computations is a given with ISAT as its past dividend policy suggests.Perhaps the company mistakenly believes that its still quasi government owned and will be baled out in an emergency.	steeplejack	Read Full Thread Reply
08/11/2018 14:54	The dividend is the root of all evil in this company. I’m seriously still amazed that the halfwits running this company continued to pay it for as long as they did.	the original goldbug	Read Full Thread Reply
08/11/2018 09:32	For now they pay a dividend, but earnings a debt might see an end to that.What caught my eye was another 3 years of £500m a year CAPX, and I thought that is mostly done by this year? Are they building spare satellites or something? Terrestrial infrastructure for aviation perhaps?	zcaprd7	Read Full Thread Reply
08/11/2018 08:50	True,but in their case,they paid too much for too long and then suddenly realised that their cash flow was inadequate to fund the level of dividend.They lost the plot as far as cash flow was concerned.Not good.	steeplejack	Read Full Thread Reply
08/11/2018 08:45	But at least ISAT pays a divi.	bscuit	Read Full Thread Reply
08/11/2018 08:32	It's one of those situations where there's a clear divide between what the management think is an acceptable performance and what the stockmarket thinks is ok.Another company which comes out with self congratulatory remarks is BTG which even applaud themselves for not paying a dividend and keep shifting the sales targets of product development.BTGs price has underperformed like ISAT,albeit not quite as bad.It's fair to assume that news of these underwhelming figures leaked out and explains recent weakness.In due course,this company will be taken over,its always the way but opportunity cost suggests that patiently waiting to be bailed out by a predator often isn't worth it.	steeplejack	Read Full Thread Reply
