ST must tear his hair out reading the comments on here. Slated for not announcing deals, slated for announcing them. I for one appreciate the fact that SRT / ST tries to keep shareholders informed, even if ink isn’t on the contract. I’d far prefer that than radio silence. The fact that SRT worked over the break to release two RNS’s when most were still in their Christmas / new year stupor is also testament to the hard work the team puts in. Massive progress has been made in the last 12 months and the business looks set for a mammoth year ahead. SRT is turning into a global success story for the UK, so let’s focus on that! |
Positive but why does the company release this news prior to the contract actually being finalised? Is it for fear that the news makes it out via other means or just in a rush to release something positive? Seems like any delays in the finalisation process will impact them later on down the line news-wise. |
Yumyum - today's news may help in that regard
$320m forward order book too |
Late Oct SRT webcast ''...we are very focussed on those 4, and getting everything in place....as the start of those 4, ALL of them, start WELL before the end of the calendar year'' (my capitals for emphasis).
....now it seems there will be only two? started before Jan 1st, Nothing really changes with this company does it? Pathetic and embarrassing still. |
A little bit off topic but not too much ...

Hi CliffPeat. Not that one but I cannot quickly put my hand on a link to the contract awarded. |
@YUMYUM - Is this the contract to which you refer? It's a different target market and as far as I know not one pursued by SRT.
"QinetiQ has been awarded a £15 million contract by the UK Ministry of Defence to manage, maintain, and update the classified military data management system, Thundercloud,..."
"Commander Nick Davies from the Joint Operational Meteorology and Oceanography Centre (JOMOC) expressed satisfaction with the contract’s continuation.
“We are very pleased to award this ongoing contract to the QinetiQ team who have ably supported us for 24 years already, working collaboratively with us on what’s needed to deliver this key capability now and for the future,” he said in the press release." |
two contracts started, or three ? Kuwait, Saudi Arabia. Anyway it does not seem to be the four promised. I see UK awarded elswhere a marine security contract of £15m. |
Sorry yump, but if you really thought that, you wouldn't be here. Go and put another log on the fire, and open that second bottle... @¬)
Like me :¬) |
More importantly, a household debate - which way round should plates be put on the drainer for optimal drainage? Sloping concave side down or up? |
As far as I am aware, this time last year there was no mention of a Kuwait contract, and now there is a $213 million contract being delivered. Indonesia is still awaiting the final sign off after being announced in May 2023? This is not an easy work flow to manage. What countries are possibly in line for systems news? Countries with oil money have an advantage for an early start. Kuwait and Saudi have great potential for further near time spend, but there are also other M/E countries. Vietnam, Cambodia, Philippines (coast guard) Indonesia (fishing) Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique are countries which will probably need help from the World bank or UKEF to allow them to have a SRT system. The reality is that there is an abundance of Countries which have a shoreline and need to know what is happening in their waters. It will be interesting to learn about the company headcount at the AGM and also to understand expansion plans. |
Just support and maintenance in that, super. With further contract upside from bells and whistles. |
That's nothing like enough to cope with the amount of change there'll be over that period - I'd expect to see another such contract every 2 or 3 years just to keep up with events. |
Thanks Lav |

The broker did say that $7 million is implementation, the other $2 million spread over the remaining eight years. (Sorry, edited). |
Probably need some broker commentary, revenue is vanity as they say, SRT might have a lot of big money contracts on the go, but it's the profit and cash flow that forms the basis of valuation projections, and so far, that part aint clear. |
at least it is signed now and in the bag - maybe front loaded ? |
Techno, I'm scratching my head a little, the original announcement (Nov.) had no time scale attached and maybe the assumption was it's a one to two year implement.
Today, it mentions a ten year period, $9m which is circa £7m spread over ten years????
Not surprising there's no reaction. Another question for the AGM. |
Bahrain implementation (gallery?) has commenced. |
