DARPA imminent, hopefully!!

[hitch19] 08/1/2016 20:48

Big buys???

[trotterstrading] 02/1/2016 14:17

2016 should be a very big year for KMK, starting with the DARPA contract!

[fruitloops101] 22/12/2015 14:14

Always a good sign to see directors buying on the open market.

14/01/2015 – Kromek Group had its "Buy" rating reiterated by analysts at Panmure Gordon. They now have a GBP 52.00p price target on the stock.

[trotterstrading] 16/12/2015 21:19

Kromek should go from strength to strength from here, the share is off the radar for now, but not for to much longer I imagine

[hitch19] 16/12/2015 16:15

Someone happy.

[gadsbyw] 16/12/2015 09:54

Results seem fine to me, this is definitely two-fold, there's the short term prospect of the DARPA contract, but for me this is certainly a long-term prospect.

Chopping dead wood which will cut costs, also much better visibility of revenues for the second half.. As the CEO. The DARPA deal can't be far away now, they want the units delivered in March!

[trotterstrading] 09/12/2015 12:25

I agree Gad, the DARPA deal will be huge.. KMK has a very bright future IMO, just a bit of patience required

[gadsbyw] 09/12/2015 11:54

Do we have any idea when the DARPA announcement will be? Pre or post Christmas? I'm expecting this to shoot up hugely when it's announced, but the volumes are so low at the moment that I'm pretty much treating the current price as irrelevant and a chance to top up.

[trotterstrading] 09/12/2015 09:59

Ali, MM's are taking this down on p*ss poor volume... less than £10k traded!!!

Sit tight when the DARPA deal hits the doormat this will fly IMO, great value at these levels.

[ali47fish] 09/12/2015 09:54

well here we are again trotters and kmk is down quite heavily today as well?

[trotterstrading] 01/12/2015 16:38

Am I the only one who can see that today's RNS deal with Canberra is a pre-cursor to the DARPA deal, and more than that will open commercial channels that Kromek alone could only dream of?

"Under the distribution agreement, CANBERRA will be the exclusive global distributor for four product families from Kromek's nuclear portfolio (excluding a limited number of territories where Kromek has pre-existing distributor networks). As an established provider and market leader in nuclear instrumentation, CANBERRA has a wide range of products, strong customer relationships and extensive channels to market that Kromek expects to leverage"

How is this RNS anything other than amazing news.. WTF is going on with the SP?

Anyone have any ideas?

[trotterstrading] 01/12/2015 08:47

The need to deliver 1000 units by March so it can't be long until DARPA confirm the contract.Another great RNS, very solid company, out of the limelight at the moment but that will change soon enough

Interesting approach to field trials! Deal must be getting closer.....

TRISTAN MADDEN, UMD, WEIRD
A NUCLEAR SCAVENGER HUNT: START USES STUDENTS TO TEST NEW RADIATION DETECTING TECHNOLOGY
NOVEMBER 30, 2015 TRMADDEN LEAVE A COMMENT
by Tristan Madden

On November 20, the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, or START, hosted an unusual scavenger hunt, asking students to use specialized devices to map out hot spots of natural radiation on campus.

Students lined up in front of a table outside of STAMP to receive a device that, at first glance, looks like an every day smartphone. But this device, the Kromek D3S, doesn’t make calls or take pictures; it detects radiation.

Students also received a sheet of paper with a series of cryptic clues written on it, each one directing them to a natural and benign source of radiation on campus. The goal for the scavenger hunt participants was to use the Kromek D3S to map out the natural radiation present across the University of Maryland campus, according to the proctor of the scavenger hunt Gary Ackerman. Students who managed to do this quickly and effectively won prizes such as IPads and Kindle Fire tablets.

But START, a research center at the University of Maryland sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, wasn’t simply letting students play around with expensive technology. The goal of the scavenger hunt was to test the efficacy of the Kromek. By putting it into the hands of a couple dozen students, START hoped to see how this brand new technology performed in the field.

Because of its primary function, one might assume the Kromek is like a Geiger counter, but that is not a fair comparison. Ackerman said, “If a Geiger counter is like one of those old bulky cell phones from the 90’s, the Kromek is a smart phone.”Ackerman explained that a Geiger counter can only detect very high levels of radiation, but the Kromek is capable of identifying even the most minute traces of radiation in a given area.

Michael Egnoto, the supervisor of the scavenger hunt, said that aside from evaluating new technology, mapping out this natural radiation helps START better understand how radiation is distributed around us, which he said has long term benefits for society.

“Long term, this helps us improve technologies that may be sensitive to certain types of radiation. Some electronics for instance, can become unreliable when around even naturally occurring levels of radiation.”

Why does no one know about this company, they are on the cusp of winning a multi million $$ deal with DARPA??!!

[rochdale] 06/11/2015 21:45

Based on the fact the detector is the D35 then the Darpa contract is in the bag. Just a question of confirmation of size of order hxxps://youtu.be/qOjenkeKWz8
