A few short term sellers who may miss the bounce up… overall strong demand

[strategicinvestor2] 30/7/2021 07:43

Hundreds of thousands in similar position to Goldman globally I expect…..

I’d like to see urgent use in hospitals, airports and schools to control the virus and then upgrade in due course for all pathogens. A game changer.

Goldman Sachs are insisting staff come back to the office. They will not batter an eyelid at a £20k machine or two to persuade people to return. That’s just one company with alit of offices and floors. £20k will not be seen as an unreasonable amount

[aqc888] 30/7/2021 00:04

This will be a ridiculous bargain at £1 per share if the results of this trial are positive

[aqc888] 30/7/2021 00:02

The immediate demand for the detector will be from institutional buyers trying to persuade people to return to the office/university/private schools. They will need these machines to reassure people it’s ok to come back. I’d say globally this market alone would be enough to keep Kromeks order books beyond what they can manufacture. Then there’s all the Far East countries still trying to keep zero covid rates. They’re probably interested in keeping track of covid in shopping malls etc. The UK ONS survey costs a fortune. A detector or two in high footfall areas would be of great interior them. Then there’s the DARPA usage for the machine in all subway stations. That’s before we think of all international airports needing it to prevent the airline industry being shut down at the slightest hint of the next pandemic. Think of all the international airports/terminals/gates. That’s just the main potential users. There will be countless other uses. Keeping a track of new variants of covid etc etc. I think just one of the above suggestions will keep Kromeks order book full. If a couple or more need the machine that’s getting beyond what they can manufacture. They have a lot of ip and no competitors. What more could you ask for? An underlining business that’s profitable now without the machine? Oh yeah, it’s got that too...

World-wide potential possibly; eventually! But aren't we getting ahead of ourselves a bit.
We've not heard anything on how the trials are getting on(except Arnab saying positive) or importantly whether they will be much in demand in huge numbers(they need to sell hundreds +)
In this country I can see the NHS being interested, for one admittedly(they are one of their trial customers I understand) but with Covid Passports being increasingly talked about as requirements to enter venues(which orginally Boris said wouldn't happen!?!) will venues like cash- strapped theatres & other venues ' fork- out' the twenty grand in future years to purchase the detector, when covid numbers will have diminished one suspects to, with virtually all the population vaccinated & having herd immunity benefits too.
I say future years because surely to get the trials over, customers on mass interested, and all those covid detectors made, we're looking next year beyond.
Sadly though future Pandemics may occur & the requirement for them will increase, and there other products as Arnab invisiged, commented on, in those first youtube videos last Summer or so.

I can see this hovering around 25p until the detector results are out...

Spread the word, Kwasi. The media may listen to you.

[strategicinvestor2] 29/7/2021 12:10

Brilliant news update . Worldwide potential ……..

[dicktrade] 29/7/2021 11:48

On the fast track to 25p

[dougmachin] 29/7/2021 11:00

Some very nice large buys just gone through. I'm back in BTW.

Without wanting to tempt fate, very happy to see the share price holding firm.

[petersw1] 29/7/2021 10:14

It had an interesting effect that small £55.65 closing auction trade.
It means a lot of displays are showing a 1.05p (5.66%) rise this morning instead of a 0.05p (0.3%) rise.
Also means the intraday charts look completely different to the daily ones. With the intraday ones missing the closing auction it makes yesterday look like a up day, while the daily bar is shown as a down day.

[strategicinvestor2] 29/7/2021 08:58

Recovering after slight dip with people
taking short term profits or needing liquidity. 21p should soon be well behind us as we hopefully move higher per newsflow. iMHO GLA

Scientists - how long will the NHS lab accreditation take? Surely it’s being fast tracked... will this accreditation be seen as gold standard by prospective clients? A lot of unknowns about this most important part of Kromeks business are causing this share price to be all over the place.

[b00mb0y] 28/7/2021 19:04

This should open higher tomorrow with a steady climb then.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping I could top up near closing but only dreaming now …..

[petersw1] 28/7/2021 18:44

The closing auction uncrossed at 18.55p setting the closing price. The market makers were offering bid 19.3p and ask 20p. Pretty odd that it uncrossed lower than the MM's bid. Was only 300 shares (£55.65). At first sight the one selling at 18.55 could have got a better price from the MM.

[dekle] 28/7/2021 18:12

It often happens when trades are recorded after close the traded price seems to be recorded as the mid price???

[strategicinvestor2] 28/7/2021 17:50

Yes - why the bid ask quote anomaly compared to closing mid ?

[fanramptastic mate] 28/7/2021 17:27

Closing share price 18.55
