Having waded through 100's of useless posts on both MMX threads, thought it worthwhile to post an update that may assist those that look at the fundamentals of a company rather than speculate with their student loans that this will be acquired for 18p.

Due to the strategic review house broker finnCap required to withdraw forecasts & target price for the shares.They however issued a small summary today concerning today's positive news on premium domain sales & summary of recent news, which is bullish in tone.

Today MMX has disclosed that .vip premium inventory bookings in China have reached $3.4m. We estimate this represents c.50% of the comparable figure from last year; however, this been achieved in less than half the time (three months, versus eight in FY16).

In our view, this achievement is a result of two key factors; management has managed the supply of new premium inventory (hence creating scarcity value); and .vip's brand strength has not faded one year on from launch.

This news, together with July's update (.vip: 75% renewal rate) provides compelling evidence that the domain's status within the investment community is exceptionally strong, which in turn is an excellent foundation for broader adoption with new user groups eg SMEs – an opportunity that has been enhanced thanks to recent licensing approval in Beijing (22m inhabitants).

Encouragingly, there is evidence this adoption is already taking place – with China's leading search engine (Baidu.com) recognising c.189,000 different .vip sites.

In July MMX updated the market that .vip has been renewing at 75%. We reiterate that is comparable with industry leader Verisign (2Q17: 74%). Phrased alternatively, we estimate that .vip's churn is c.30-40% lower than the new gTLDs industry as a whole – either way, renewal demand appears exceptionally robust."

Kind regards,

Billing and sales are not the same as profit... it will be another year or so before we are at that stage folks and that's the reason for a low share price


so only time will tell all

starting with late september and early october

[hjb1] 12/9/2017 15:46

I did say briefly! So you reckon it's being manipulated? whatever next!.. lol
So when's it gonna change?

[chimers] 12/9/2017 15:27

The second it hit 14p it was slapped right back down to below 13p
13p is where they will keep it.

[waldron] 12/9/2017 14:51

Less Than 30 days for the Go-live of .BOSTON Domain Names! Have You Chosen Yours?

Share this article

BOSTON, Sept. 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- On October 10, Boston will get its own domain extension. Local businesses, ventures and individuals may in the near future establish their websites or create emails with a .BOSTON domain name. This new extension is just like the traditional .COM, .NET, .ORG, etc. but identifies the websites around and about the city of Boston. Websites may now be www.example.Boston, www.hotels.Boston, www.travel.Boston, etc.
Get your .boston domain
Get your .boston domain
Don't miss out on your .boston.
Don't miss out on your .boston.

Boston is not the first city to get its domain name. New York (.nyc), London (.london), Berlin (.berlin), Tokyo (.tokyo) among others have already created their local digital space. These new extensions are possible thanks to a program developed by ICANN (the governing organization of the Internet), by which new domain endings can be created after a rigorous and long process. The City of Boston has been following the process for more than two years and is now ready to launch its domain extension.

Professionals that have a Boston centric activity, local businesses, entrepreneurs, organizations that work with the city and its people are called to get their web domain names. This will enhance their digital presence and will give them a memorable, brandable and meaningful name on the Internet.

People looking for a business opportunity may also take advantage of the launch of .BOSTON. Domains have become the real estate of the Internet. Memorable, or generic Internet addresses have acquired a lot of value as the economy has moved to a digital space. This makes the launch of .BOSTON a great opportunity to acquire unclaimed valuable pieces of digital space that will gain value over time.

Hello.boston (www.hello.boston), a company specialized in the registration of domain names is offering early access to applications for domain names. Applications submitted before October 10 will be held with priority. According to Gerardo Aristizabal, Director of Hello.boston, "People that apply early will have priority over people that wait until the 10th." Aristizabal advises people that know about their interest on a particular domain to apply early and increase their chances of getting the .BOSTON domain they want. More information can be found on their website, www.hello.boston. The registration of domains starts at $17.99 with some domains priced higher and considered "premium" names.

With the gravitation of businesses and startups to the Internet, and with the vibrant and growing tech scene in Boston, the launch of the extension provides many branding opportunities for entrepreneurs and existing businesses. Owning a piece of Boston's digital space will give these individuals and organizations a great opportunity to brand their websites and establish a meaningful online presence. "We will definitely see a big number of registrations adopting .BOSTON as their place on the Internet," says Aristizabal.

European markets are set to open higher Tuesday as investors enjoy a lull in the ongoing conflict with North Korea and the worst effects of Hurricane Irma appear to have passed.

The FTSE 100 is seen opening 26 points higher; the German DAX is expected up by 17 points; and the French CAC is on track to open higher by 29 points.

Asian shares hit a high not seen since late-2007 on Tuesday as geopolitical tensions appeared to cool on the Korean Peninsula. The United Nations Security Council unanimously agreed to step up sanctions on Kim Jong Un's North Korea Monday, but U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley insisted that the U.S. is not looking for war with the closed state.

China premium sales update

Minds + Machines Group Limited (AIM: MMX), one of the world's leading owners and operators of Internet Top-Level Domains ("TLDs"), is pleased to announce that since the release of its 2017 premium inventory for China in late June 2017, premium sales in excess of $3.4million have been achieved in .vip, of which approximately $2.8million has closed in the last 10 days.

Toby Hall, CEO of MMX commented:

"We are building a strong, long-term, annuity based business with each of our regions now contributing well to the renewal revenue mix.

"The exceptional renewal rates achieved in China in H1 are, in no small part, a direct result of the premium pricing policies introduced at the launch of the .vip TLD. The significant interest we are now experiencing in our 2017 premium inventory allocation follows our recent Beijing approval and, we believe, lays down further foundations for strong recurring revenues in subsequent years from the region.

"These latest sales also mean we are making excellent progress towards achieving management's top-line billing targets for China for the current year, with more than 60% of our 2017 China premium allocation now sold in recent weeks. These sales, along with the launch of .boston in October, will however further accentuate the H2 weighted nature of our business as we now enter the main renewal seasons for our leading properties in Europe and the US."

Outside of China, management is encouraged by the interest now being shown in its premium inventory in the UK and US following the introduction of its revised premium pricing policies earlier this year.

mmx will be announcing its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2017 on Tuesday 26 September 2017.

nice
