Surely this news warrants an RNS? Wouldn't be surprised to see one tomorrow. Elite sports is one of the growth drivers where OMG have accelerated investment. Therefore this should be classed as a significant new product launch? The market is substantial.

The Blue Trident IMU Sensor
The new Blue Trident sensor is the most advanced IMU athlete sensor on the market, enabling coaches to collect real-world data on activities which have previously been unquantifiable. Kicking, sprinting, springboard diving, and many more sports have now been opened to the world of athlete tracking. It does so through a variety of technological innovations and market first.

Yes, obviously starts today so whatever the BIG news is we should know soon? Perhaps later today when the convention kicks off?

Thx SteveD: National Athletic Trainers Association - Convention 24-27 June Las Vegas.

Intriguing.....

In the last addition of "The Standard" it stated in an ImeasureU review and I quote "I'm particularly excited about the imminent launch of our next generation inertial sensor which will change the game for researchers and practitioners alike".

In a tweet on Friday ImeasureU highlighted they will be present at the NATA1950 conference where BIG news will be announced.

This could be the new sensor as they seem to be making a big thing about it. Have to wait and see but this could be significant? Watch this space.

Gorra love those figures.

When you remove the net cash from the PE calc its a good value growth company. Absolutely one for the long term.

[mfhmfh] 12/6/2019 11:40

I also agree with the long-term view. This is for patient investors.

Also remember: £10.9m in net cash and company looking at acquisitions.

I think Vicon will really fly in the next 12 months and Yotta starting to gain momentum as well.

All IMHO.

[texas_caddy] 12/6/2019 10:08

lignum, I'd agree with the long term view. For me it is the opportunity and whether the company can capitalise on that and turn into meaningful growth numbers. So far everything looks to be lining up favourably so happy to hold. Also on the 5 year plan - we're now in year 3 so expect this will be needing refreshed sooner than later beyond the 5 year mark, interesting to see what comes of that.

[lignum] 12/6/2019 10:04

I think the majority of holders are in this for the long term leaving little liquidity and the share price susceptible to small volumes. This is not a trading share. The key issue for me is the 5 year plan and so long as they remain on track I will hold.

[mfhmfh] 12/6/2019 09:28

positive write-up in IC:

'Vicon’s sales pipeline is 11 per cent ahead of where it was this time last year, and Yotta’s pipelines “continue to grow” after changes made within its sales team.'

[scubadiverr] 12/6/2019 09:12

Market says no ?

[bamboo2] 11/6/2019 12:58

Looks like price may want to test the Breakaway gap support zone, 83-84, caused by the rns 15/3/2019

[tim1478] 11/6/2019 12:12

Made small purchase today.

Bull case. Good shares often fall on results day. Future looks promising over a 2-3 year time frame

Bear case. On the figures alone, the share is expensive and vulnerable to any bad news. Expansion does not always equate to raised uncorrected EPS.

I have ammunition to buy lower and will do so if 75/80 seen and story has not fundamentally changed.

All in all it appears its steady as she goes at the interim stage. Very encouraged by the confidence that year end market expectations will be met, especially as there is only just 3 months of the FY remaining. More so, the clear growth drivers and confirmation that OM are on track towards fulfilling the 5 year growth plan.

It seems that Yotta haven't really progressed as quickly as the management anticipated 2.5 years ago but it shines through that there is every prospect that momentum is growing and that at some point growth will accelerate.

All in all as a long term investor I feel pleased and will look forward to learning about ongoing developments.

[mfhmfh] 11/6/2019 10:55

I agree, price knocked down for a buyer.

buy rating reiterated in today's IC.

[mfhmfh] 11/6/2019 09:22

cash available for acquisitions if anything worthwhile becomes available.

'The focused investments we are making this year will help us to capture these new opportunities and launch new products to drive future growth.

As we move into the second half, our pipeline of sales for both Yotta and Vicon is strong, underpinning our confidence in delivering in-line with market expectations for the full year.'

[mfhmfh] 11/6/2019 09:20

possibly stop losses activated for many investors.

results solid and company growing steadily. not a spectacular company.

- revenue stood at £16.1 million, compared to £14.3 million in the preceding year (+12.6%)

- profit after tax was £1.1 million, compared to a profit of £0.5 million in the last year.

- diluted earnings per share was 0.86p, compared to earnings of 0.58p in the prior year (+48.3%)

- net cash of £10.9m compared to £9.2m the prior year (+18.7%)

All IMHO.

[bbluesky] 11/6/2019 09:20

Well, if the market could see the wood for the trees! The 5 year strategy is going gangbusters. Vicon goes from strength to strength and it's markets continue to broaden. LBVR is already making an impact and is "exciting"!! Watch this space as the potential market is massive.

OMG is a future understanding company clearly benefiting, as they say, from the "Augmented Age".

A new director of sales for Yotta looks to be pushing this in the right direction and these solutions are an inevitable in a very traditional huge marketplace in urgent need of becoming more efficient. Debt free, cash rich,with leading edge technologies and unusually well focused:a very smart company indeed.

[krobertson878] 11/6/2019 09:01

Knocked down for a buyer, results do not deserve the current reaction.

[blackfinance] 11/6/2019 08:40

Really disappointing reaction from the market....but you have to say results were not startlingly good.

[tomg23] 10/6/2019 17:48

Looking back on last year it seems it was a volatile day with large intraday swings. I was not a holder so cant say what caused it. Results seemed inline .Hope it's a little more calm tomorrow

[mfhmfh] 10/6/2019 15:04

let's see what tomorrow brings...

[mfhmfh] 31/5/2019 13:56
