Interesting to read Flir's development of bio hazard units and its first use and considerable cost...it might be Kromeks proven cost economic s from the DS3 that got their foot in the door to this new product line.

I recently joined in the fun with this one, interesting to see what they achieve with the EPA grant, they also have multiple R&D activities funded by Innovate UK according to the public list.

[abbynat] 29/6/2020 23:10

anybody holding anymore?

[abbynat] 23/6/2020 21:04

agree. hardly any trades and then its in the blue!very strange.
this aimless mkt is unfathomable at times.

[mark_jm] 23/6/2020 18:08

dosnt seem to take much volume to push this share north, could do with some good RNS' to help folks enthusiasm for this stock a little

[abbynat] 17/6/2020 19:12

mm, i detect a bit of activity!
anyone.

[abbynat] 15/6/2020 21:56

you can say this about a lot of tech, ie. on the aimless mkt.
yes, this co do have some interesting stuff with the usa d force, not forgetting the ventilators etc.
am holding some, but will not aquire any more till it shows signs of life!
and not for a day or hours after a release of an rns!

[susiebe] 14/6/2020 23:31

Worth listening to the Directors talk interview,(next post down)for a good insight into where the companies heading.Exciting times coming imo

[alangriffbang] 14/6/2020 21:18

Not worth hanging about here it’s going nowhere,

[abbynat] 14/6/2020 20:30

where's everybody gone!

[jaf111] 28/5/2020 19:02

But surely EVERYONE knows the quality of advice / view / opinion on these BBs is unsurpassed.....only the very best! So makes perfect sense to decide buy / hold or sell......

[dennisbergkamp] 28/5/2020 18:46

Looks interesting, need to do some research on this.

Eye out for now...
Thanks all,

Ventilators could set this year’s sales ablaze
Just when Kromek’s hands should have been full with all that, Kromek is now turning to making ventilators to assist the global response to COVID-19 and has licenced-in a design from Metran, a leading Japanese ventilator company.
The re-tooling of Kromek's existing production facilities to make a ventilator is not expected to incur any material cost and Kromek reckons it can produce up to 2,000 units within the first twelve weeks, which will benefit the current year sales starting 1 May. With an average selling price of ventilators around the US$10k mark, 2,000 units could see this agreement producing a US$20m revenue contribution, which is yet to be factored into broker forecasts.
Interestingly broker Cenkos says, “it does not expect a material diversion of resources away from the core activities,” which are alone expected to generate sales of £18.5m, ebitda of £4.2m and a pretax loss of £0.3m this year - before any contribution from the ventilators business.
Kromek has the classic characteristic of a successful technology business. It could become highly cash generative as volumes scale up across the board (the 55% gross margin on traditional business results in a high drop through).

I no the UK factory at Netpark Sedgefield is definitely working.

[cerrito] 28/5/2020 16:08

Been catching up here to see if I should buy or sell- at the moment the shares to me seem correctly priced so do not plan to do anything.
One question
Does anyone know if their factories in the US and the UK are working??. One assumes they are busy producing ventilators but apart from comments about supply hold ups they have been coy in both the March 26 statement on their website as well as the RNS as to what is happening in the factories.

[abbynat] 28/5/2020 15:21

well done malcommm! i sit here corrected! i take back anything i posted previously or will post in the future!

cheers, good post. one of the better ones!
