Posted at 26/12/2024 12:48 by owenski Thanks for the reply.Niche security software companies often state market size opportunities and yet never seem to do that well. The sector seems to be dominated by a couple of large players, I fail to see any great differentiator in SWG. That being said, I can see its potential as a recovery story if they deliver on 2H which they seem to have some confidence over. Beyond that, what sort of growth trajectory they can achieve I'm unsure of. Also, as a plus, they are on the Gov. accreditation list which can't harm. Odds are the share price will recover from this obvious low base, but it aint no unicorn stock. Encouraging to see Hastings and Rivaldo on here as they're credible investors. |
Posted at 26/12/2024 10:08 by earwacks Owen. I think the CFO is the least of their worries. It’s always tempting when people see cash piles and talk about EBITDAS, one of the worst ways to value a company like this. They did a placing at £2.40 in 2020 I think it was to raise £3 million to make another acquisition and it strengthen the balance sheet. Neither of which things really happened. Higgins own company, Brookcourt was bought by SWG prior to that for an absolutely staggering 30 million, and he became CEO. Without him and his company Swg doesn’t amount to much. Schroeder’s is about the only institution left with a reduced holding. Probably couldn’t get out if they wanted to. The risk is still pretty big and the reward is minimal. Would anyone take it over? I think that would have happened by now. Far better investments even in cyber security which has always been a bit mysterious and hard to value. Value is not really material when it comes to SWG. You could turn a quick profit here or just go down the bookies which would be far more fun |
Posted at 20/12/2024 15:49 by boadicea The late reported dump of 169000 at 31p on 27th Nov would leave mm's with stock they didn't want and at the minimal turnover in SWG that would last some time. Hence the current discounting against the published quotes I suppose.Again, if one takes a quick glance at the visual representation of the historic figures on the advfn Financials tab you would immediately mark this as Avoid. So we are not likely to get a spontaneous quick uptake by private punters until a turnround begins to show in the figures or it gets a few mentions in some widely read publications. Even then, there don't seem to be many punters actively searching for bargains atm. However, the best time to get in is before any upturn becomes widely recognised. Only time will tell whether we may be sensing a false dawn. Incidentally I note that the 2pm auction produced the surprisingly high settlement of 39.6p. Not sure what this might imply. |
Posted at 20/12/2024 10:16 by techno20 Currently sitting on a painful 71% loss on SWG, but couldn’t resist topping up. Momentum looks to be building nicely. Thanks again to Hastings for your recent write-up which I re-read again this morning. Massively helpful. |
Posted at 05/12/2024 11:59 by hastings Echo that well done Chris, nice to see.As for SWG I'd guess it'll probably go the same way. |
Posted at 05/12/2024 11:26 by lammylover Well done for holding Brand Architekts, Chris - A shrewd acquisition for W7L in my view. Bound to be synergy savings, cost base was holding back BA's share price.Hopefully someone will come in for SWG eventually! |
Posted at 05/12/2024 10:52 by chrisdgb 100% premium takeover for one of my other holdings, just shows the scope of undervaluation in some stocks and SWG is a prime example....... |
Posted at 28/11/2024 18:44 by insideit The software being provided to the Government contracts are just being resold, it is not clear if SWG is actually the software vendor in these deals. |
Posted at 27/11/2024 11:16 by igoe104 The way I'm looking at SWG at the moment, is the software must be good otherwise they wouldn't be installing into Government systems at the moment. But the big issue is, Is the software too niche ? It just seems a handful of big companies etc are the clients, can medium size companies become clients ?The company needs more contracts of decent size and more government contracts too really kick on. Just look at IGP a cluster of continued contracts and these can kick off big style... We need continued momentum, not periods of 5 to 6 months before other announcements... |
Posted at 11/11/2024 16:46 by lammylover Ludicrous AIM market in action.So SWG share is trading at 35p ask / 34p bid at 1630 at market closing auction (down about 2.5% on the day). Extended auction, and then finally a U/T for 800 shares at 31.4p, so end of day SWG shows as being down 11.55%... No doubt tomorrow morning, market makers will open at 35/34p, and share will be marked up around 8.5% before a share is even traded... Surely there must be rules in place to prevent this kind of nonsense? |
