Rosslyn Data Technologies Share Discussion Threads

Yes, a good size of contract as well. Roger said he was seeing an upturn in the US so we can expect more, especially with the favourable exchange rate. $ earnings are most welcome in the current climate.

[cottoner] 03/11/2016 07:30

Well they've now issued an RNS - and I can't complain about its contents! ;-)

Getting contracts with high profile US clients will hopefully at some point cause a 'snowball effect' where other companies become more aware of RDT's products and further contracts subsequently follow.

few more like this and its off to the races gl

Sentiment seems rock bottom. If the company delivers on positive cash flow by the end of this year as promised, and profit generation during the current six month period, the share price will look after itself.

Anyone reckon that 60k is a well worked buy?

By pure coincidence TCM today released an RNS Reach in exactly the same vein as an RNS that I'd expected RDT to issue wrt to their world's first product.

Hi guys, Roger certainly expressed disappointment with the share price which is lagging recent company performance and said the company is in much better shape than it was two years ago. I'm happy that the new one-click product was put out on business wire rather than RNS. It's early days and once it's proven itself in the market and is generating profit to support a bigger business, that will be the time to promote it more widely imo.

Thanks from me as well columbarius.

Still no RNS been issued wrt Result of AGM.

Couple of points :

Wrt - placing:

From end year results.

"We ended the year with net cash balances of £1.9m (2015: £4.7m). The consumption of cash is accounted for by the losses in the period. The Board believes that we have adequate cash resources to take the Group through to break-even and cash generation."

The break-even point/cash generation still seems to be on-track so hopefully a placing shouldn't be required OR if one is, it should be very small.



wrt - The press release was issued to the target audience on Business Wire rather than by RNS.

I'm afraid I don't agree that a Business Wire press release would hit all their 'target audience'. Surely their 'target audience' should include new prospective investors, who would more likely be attracted by the issuing of an RNS as well as a Business Wire release.

They can't on one hand (as it's been previously reported describe their present valuation as “aberrant̶1;), yet at the same time seem to have so little regard for self publicity, IMO.

How they can believe a release of a 'world's /industry' first product does not merit issuing an RNS is beyond me. :-)

However, behind the scenes , all the boxes appear to be being ticked and RDT seems to a good medium/long term hold.

[rambutan2] 30/10/2016 17:04

Yes, many thanks columbarius. I was hoping to attend but at the last minute half term duties got in the way. Re MSFT, but do RDT get a cut of the rise? How does revenue split work as a MSFT partner?

Did the board express frustration with the share price and have any hints as to why it has drifted down since float and settled at the low of 9-10p, despite the seemingly reasonable progress. And Cenkos only have it as a hold. One has to assume the mkt knows that there will be a placing at or around this level.

[columbarius] 30/10/2016 15:41

It's alright. I've appreciated others doing the same. It can be difficult getting to AGMs. I should also have mentioned that thanks to being a Microsoft partner the 20% price increase announced by Microsoft last week doesn't apply to Rosslyn.

[flashheart] 28/10/2016 11:17

Thank you for sharing columbarius.......encouraging.

I attended the Rosslyn Data Technologies AGM yesterday. All resolutions were duly passed. The formal meeting was brief and I was then able to speak one to one with CEO Roger Bullen. I was very encouraged to hear him talk about the company. Much better than a telephone conversation which cuts out the body language. An improvement in US prospects is already apparent since Charlie Clark took over from Jeff Sweetman. Roger is excited about the strategic partnership announced with the final results. Contract talks have been lengthy but he expects to make an announcement in November. He spoke about the recent launch of RAPid One-Click which was developed after a suggestion from Forrester Research who saw a gap in the market. The press release was issued to the target audience on Business Wire rather than by RNS. This is a unique product worldwide and it will be interesting to see how it progresses.
The company is on track to achieve cash flow break even on a monthly basis in November and December and profitability for the half year to April 2017. Costs are under control and the bulk of the development spend has been done thanks to the funds raised on joining Aim. Development is now focused on keeping software up to date and acting on customer suggestions. It could be argued the float was a couple of years early and accordingly has led to disappointment with share price performance. For example former holder Hargreave Hale have sold their stake (to Inductive Capital as surmised on here). However without the injection of development and marketing capital the company wouldn’t be in the good shape it’s in today. With gross profit expected to fluctuate between 85 and 92%, once profitability is achieved revenue growth will drive strong profit growth.

damn cheek not bothering to RNS it in my view.

[flashheart] 25/10/2016 11:09

If it's only just announced then RNS could come at any time now.

[runwaypaul] 25/10/2016 07:51

that's disappointing.strange why they wouldnt RNS it.

[cottoner] 22/10/2016 09:30

Expecting an RNS on Tue to announce the unveiling of the world's first and only automated data analytics solution as advertised on their website.

[runwaypaul] 18/10/2016 06:21

I presume they'll RNS this launch on the 25th so that's something to look forward to.gl

[gspanner] 17/10/2016 12:07

All this stuff justifies remaining into this until some kind of lift off. One wonders (and I have no knowledge of this) whether the software is sold too cheaply.

Anyone invested who has dealt with the comapany commercially?

[cottoner] 14/10/2016 20:11

People said it was technically impossible but on October 25, 2016,
you will see the world's first and only automated data analytics solution

[runwaypaul] 12/10/2016 11:53

wish theyd get on with it.
