FFS. Just when you find an investment with huge potential someone nicks it!

[cwa1] 13/3/2019 07:17

Indeed, didn't see that coming.

[robsy2] 13/3/2019 07:13

I wasn't expecting that.
Shame really.

Presumably 5G will replace fixed line internet eventually, but since Manx have a monopoly situation on the Isle they won't be affected.

Plus Clearsound as the cherry on top - All looks reassuring!

Huge yield here and a lot of potential over the next year for it's hearing product
I am pretty sure one of the telecoms giants will interested in as an add on business

[ntv] 11/2/2019 15:40

KCOM bid speculation maybe helpful but this would be a far better target

[joan of arc] 07/2/2019 12:14

Fingers crossed

[robsy2] 06/2/2019 08:34

This could have serious potential.

Manx Telecom Plc

Update on Goshawk Communications

Manx Telecom Plc (AIM: MANX), the leading communication solutions provider on the Isle of Man, is delighted to provide the following update on the progress of Goshawk Communications, which sits within Vannin Ventures, Manx Telecom's international growth vehicle, towards the UK launch of its innovative hearing enhancement product.

In September 2018, Manx Telecom announced the launch on the Isle of Man of MT clearSound, a new, personal mobile phone product which dramatically improves the clarity of mobile phone calls. At the same time Manx Telecom announced that the underlying Goshawk technology would be made available in the UK via the EE mobile network. In December at a Capital Markets Day, Manx Telecom provided further detail on the planned rollout using an MVNO structure, including the intention to unveil a new consumer-facing brand in February.

Today Goshawk Communications announces the brand name for the mobile phone proposition it will launch in the summer of 2019 as 'Audacious'. In line with the plan outlined at the Capital Markets Day, a company trading under this name and operating from its own premises under the leadership of CEO Rob Shardlow is now driving the continued development of the proposition and launch planning activities. Its current focus is on further building industry relationships and building the organisation's capability, before moving on to build consumer awareness nearer to launch.

The brand name will be supported by a vibrant brand identity, which delivers against three core design principles, which have proven importance with target customers - clear, human and connected.

In parallel with the launch of 'Audacious' in the UK market, Matthew Turner, Founder of Goshawk Communications, continues to drive the strategic development and global scaling of the proposition. He has secured three technology award nominations and two speaker slots at Mobile World Congress later this month to raise the profile of the technology within the global mobile network operator community.

Rob Shardlow commented: "I am proud to announce 'Audacious' as our brand name, in the UK. It captures, powerfully, the ambition that we have to improve peoples' lives and the confidence we have that this will be possible."

Gary Lamb, CEO of Manx Telecom, said: "This marks another important step in the development of our plan to commercialise and scale the innovative and valuable Goshawk technology. We look forward to the launch of 'Audacious' as a new MVNO business in the UK, later this year."

RNS. Canaccord buying. Most probably for the yield and of course the huge potential with the 'hearing aid app' or whatever it is called. That should be monster when it takes off.
I would expect to see BT buying in here too in the near future. And/or other overseas telecoms companies.

[santangello] 31/1/2019 14:48

Nice retrace in place with chunky momentum buying....bodes well going forward :)

[essentialinvestor] 21/1/2019 14:46

Disappointing to see no BOD buying.

With the yield available, find it a little strange and potentially a negative sign?.

Appreciate the executive directors have options packages,
but what about the non execs.

Is Vannin Ventures a wholly owned subsidiary?

[cwa1] 16/1/2019 08:40

Very solid update, gives me reasonable confidence in my decent holding here. If the BT partnership "takes off" this could well have some mileage in it. Onwards and upwards hopefully.

[santangello] 16/1/2019 07:18

Lovely update....I shall now add aggressively with confidence.

I was initially investing here for income, but I forsee capital growth (re testing 185p) ahead for this well run and performance delivering little gem of a company.

[santangello] 12/12/2018 17:12

Many thanks Robsy.....sounds like good stuff to me :)

[robsy2] 12/12/2018 16:39

Just been having a look at the capital markets day pdf on the website , in the reports section.
It outlines their plans for their Goshawk tech and makes a strong case. The plans are ambitious and well advanced and the proposition looks pretty interesting. They have a team in place , agreements , the solution really works and the addressable market of people with hearing issues is huge and growing . They are hoping to get 600,000 customers in the UK alone over the next 5 years and that is just 6% of the UK market.
The global market is also within their sights.

This story will unfold in 2019 and may be very interesting.

Hopefully today's presentation has gone well, and some of the buys have spun off the back of it.I will be adding soon, when funds allow.

[cwa1] 27/11/2018 09:50

Reasonable looking appointment:-

[santangello] 23/11/2018 16:04

Looks like these are coiling up to spring North handsomely when the breaks come off......sustained buying is a positive catalyst to confirm this ?
