Profit takers and weak holders bailing out and MM building stock - will the new CEO buy in - Barry Gamble bought a wack at 28p and I think higher before hence the reason they mentioned it in the RNS I guess.

Watch out for a big number buy going though.

Revenue will also start to be created from the data collected from all these devices in the future and that will increase margins considerably over the course of time.

I look forward to the next news of large orders on the back of Google. Might be a bumpy ride but up it will go, hold tight.

[potential] 19/5/2017 07:54

Excellent update... very exciting times ahead!!!

[trytryandagain] 19/5/2017 07:53

Great increase of units charged in April from previous slow order to invoice. Will be interesting to see how California peps up the order book over the coming few weeks. Must be a few new suppliers we are in discussion with.

mm - LOL wishful thinking on your part to get some before the share price rockets past 30p -

They have a 1.1million cash draw down facility in place! the spectre of Google climbing on board is without doubt a thumbs up! gla

[michaelmouse] 19/5/2017 07:48

They're burning cash and continuing with additional investment. They'll need a cash raise because they simply haven't got enough money left. Good luck though. Aimho.

Revenues jumped but so what when admin expenses also jumped significantly and cash burn is accelerating?

[clocktower] 19/5/2017 07:47

With orders being filled to the tune of £500k in one month, it is nothing to do with the reduced size of the order book it is to do with the management and speed of distribution i.e. from order to delivery.

With Google in the picture, expect to see large new orders that will send the company flying on its way to profitability imo.

[trytryandagain] 19/5/2017 07:42

sales this year should exceed 3.5 million, profit 35% say 1.225 million. We are going to be break even or profit for year end. That is without considering major uptake of Google just announced.

Revenue last year 1.44 million this year H1 1.2 million and 500,000 charged in April.

loss last year .84 million this year H1 .33 loss (April's sales alone should make H2 much better)

2015, 5000 sign up's this year H1 4000 already 9 Should improve massively with Google live)

Voice control 5,500 Vs 0 Last year...great conversion rate already.

Post 3432 which I wrote following the trading update:-

""After the planned increases in development and marketing spend, the loss for the first half is expected to be about the same as the equivalent period last year. We are also continuing the capital investment in our cloud platform."

So despite a 60% increase in revenue they are basically standing still because of the increased expenditure.

Capital investment is obviously going to continue into the second half.

It's what's not said in these updates that should be given careful thought.

Given a recent fundraising they should really let investors know what the cash burn is like. They haven't mentioned it, so I suspect it's still quite high. They recently raised £2.1m, and if cash burn is similar to last year (or higher?) then by year end they may be left with less than £1m again which would raise the spectre of a further cash raise.

I might be wrong but healthy scepticism is needed when a company updates on improved revenues but reports similar losses to the previous year.""

Well the results vindicate my comments and they will undoubtedly need a cash raise. Cash burn has been far worse than I thought at close to £1m in 6 months with around £800,000 remaining on the balance sheet. The loss is about the same as last year despite improving revenues because of ballooning admin expenses.

Given the above, this line tells you that a large discounted placing is coming:-

"There remains much work to do and additional investment to make as we align our organisation, product set and customer value proposition."

I also note that the order book hasn't moved since the trading update. It was £1.6m of which they have collected £500,000 and hence is down to £1.1m.

Personally, I'd wait for the cash raise.

Nice write up in Daily Mail :

MARKET REPORT: Smart home device maker LightwaveRF jumps nearly 50 per cent after partnering with Google on tech giant’s recently launched voice control technology

Smart home device maker LightwaveRF jumped nearly 50 per cent after partnering with Google on the tech giant’s recently launched voice control technology.

LightwaveRF makes devices that allow users to control things such as light, heat, power and security through an app on their mobile phone.

Its customers will now be able to use Google’s new voice-controlled Home device instead.


LightwaveRF already allows its customers to use Amazon’s ‘Alexa’ voice technology, featured as part of its Echo product range, and plans to team up with Apple on similar technology.

LightwaveRF saw its shares rise by 48.4 per cent, or 7.5p, to 23p – a 16-month high.
