Posted at 09/9/2008 17:53 by carlos panda PAR12 - more than likely!ps: I post the reason for my sales in illiquid stocks like VDI to try allay any investor fears that "someone out there knows something bad"! Not the case here at all as explained previously. |
Posted at 15/5/2008 10:02 by rivaldo I e-mailed the FD. Apparently the CEO "is in the UK this week attending a key industry trade show and is taking the opportunity to meet with institutional investors as well."In addition, VDI are "considering further information sessions between now and the end of June to carry the message". The message being that "The Board and Management agree that VDI is undervalued, we continue to believe in the future success of our strategy with continued financial improvement and contract wins ahead." I like the sound of more contract wins :o)) Hopefully the institutional meetings and a new broker note will generate a degree of interest. |
Posted at 30/4/2008 09:08 by mesquida Thanks for reply PAR12 - totally agree with everything you say. Let us hope that Chairman does not get too frustrated by continuing lack of investor recognition and takes it private before we get to see the benefits of all the recent contract wins. |
Posted at 25/4/2008 12:42 by scotswhaehae I suspect many here are simply looking for a way out...preferably giving out warm words in the hope of cutting losses...I note the usual suspects are even pushing it on other boards such as the excellent RCG (which incidentally really IS starting to motor!)Gross margins of 33% and declining compare with over 70% at Indigovision so its much tougher for VDI to push into profits...cost cutting seems still to be the order of the day from reading recent RNSs... Still...its not getting worse and maybe an exit a bit higher will be possible for very long suffering investors... Good luck al1! |
Posted at 03/12/2007 08:34 by par12 The Market will worry about how they will do the work. I am sure Big investors will want a meeting. share price should be A QUID with a contract win like this. |
Posted at 26/9/2007 22:43 by dasein I wonder.....Some old news 13/12/2006 17 more investment projects in Chu Lai EZ VietNamNet Bridge Seventeen investment projects in the Chu Lai Economic Zone (EZ) that have the total capital of $162.77mil have been proposed so far this year, according to the EZ management board. 11 projects have already been approved, totalling $51.627mil. Chu Lai will be an international goods transit airport Most recently, the Prime Minister has agreed to the Quang Nam provincial authorities' proposal to turn Chu Lai airport into a goods transit airport under the form of BOT (build operation transfer). Canadia Visual Defence Group has become the first investor who has made contact with the Government of Vietnam on the project. By 2025, Chu Lai airport will be an international goods transit airport, which will see 5mil tonnes of goods and 4mil passengers a year go through. Covering an area of 2,300 ha, having runways for taking-off and landing with a length of more than 4,000 m, the Chu Lai airport will be capable of receiving heavy aircrafts. some newer news.... Chu Lai zone finds two new large tenants 14-SEP-2007 Intellasia | 12/Sep/2007 The Saigon Times Daily page 2 Sep 14, 2007 - 7:00:02 AM Chu Lai Open Economic Zone in the central province of Quang Nam has just signed investment deals with the two investors to develop big infrastructure projects in the zone, the zone authority leader said. Head of the authority Le Phuoc Thanh said that Indochina Land Holding 2 and Dong A Real Estate Join Stock Company over the weekend signed agreements to build an industrial park and a residential area there, respectively. Indochina Land Holding 2 will develop infrastructure for Tam Hiep Industrial Parkcovering over 670 hectares, which will be reserved for tenants in high-tech and clean industries in the future, Thanh told the Daily yesterday. Meanwhile, Dong A Real Estate Join Stock Company wants to develop infrastructure for a 100-ha residential area in Tam Hiep-Nui Thanh Town. The investor plans to develop houses and a resort to cater to foreign experts who are working in the zone and other tourists. This is the first investor to get involved in a plan to develop Tam Hiep-Nui Thanh Town covering 1,900hectares, which will have a planned population of 28,000 in the future. Thanh of Chu Lai zone said the new projects were a good start for the zone's development trend. "We're very pleased with the new investors because we are in need of more investors to develop infrastructure facilities for the zone," he said. He said his authority and the investors would discuss detailed works of the projects next week and said that the two investors would spend much money on their projects, which are expected to get off ground by 2008. "Indochina will spend around US$90 million on the project in the first stage but the total investment will amount to hundreds of millions of US dollars down the road. Dong A meanwhile is hiring foreign experts to make the scheme for the town," he said. Chu Lai Open Economic Zone covering 27,000 hectares encompassing Nui Thanh District and Tam Ky Town is envisaged to become a financial, banking, commercial, tourism, telecoms and service center in central Vietnam. After four years in operation, the zone has seen 58 projects licensed, but only 23 of them have started operations while others still remain inactive. The total pledged capital of these projects excluding the two above-mentioned ones is US$937.3 million. Thanh said during January August period around 50 groups of local and foreign investors have come to the zone to sound out investment opportunities. Some potential investors have shown keen interest in on huge projects, including Icorpa Group of Canada wanting to develop infrastructure for Chu Lai Airport, the U.S based Keystones planning to establish Chu Lai Development Bank, and another U.S. investor Providential Holding Inc considering to build a seaside resort. "These projects worth hundreds of millions of US dollars each and many of them can be translated into reality," Thanh said. |
Posted at 26/9/2007 08:00 by masurenguy No reference at all to the LOI which was expected to be a confirmed order by the end of June. If this is still in the pipeline or has even been terminated then some reference to its current status should have been made !This does not reflect a good investor relations ! |
Posted at 30/8/2007 15:10 by rivaldo A tick up on the bid? The quoted spread has improved to 2p anyway. VDI has held up surprisingly well in the market turmoil, which maybe either suggests that bleedin' airport contract is finally on the way or that VDI is making good progress anyway without it.I sent an e-mail to the corporate HQ (info@visualdefence. |
Posted at 11/6/2007 19:18 by nickcduk Agreed its not a massive contract but the potential for further wins is promising. Im not sure how widely they are looking to roll out similar systems but there are a fair few schools in Canada which they can go for now. Maybe they can then try and pitch for a few US school contracts. They could possibly double up with AV side with security modules to protect pupils from outsiders and also keep an eye on classrooms. With the US being so free with litigation its worth having proof in scenarios where teachers might be accused of doing something untoward in class.I think the purpose of announcing the contract win was to bring to investors attention various products and solutions which they have in the pipeline. They have started putting out regular contract win announcements to keep us better informed. They should be congratulated for that. Hopefully they will have a few more juicy wins to announce soon. Not only the airport deal but keep an eye out for the Mississuaga transport deal. That was worth $5m and was expected to be confirmed around now. |
Posted at 15/3/2007 14:25 by glasshalfull Thanks nickduc.I've a few questions that I'd be obliged if you could raise please. Before I go any further I should point out that I have emailed the company on several occasions (and Bill on two) and have yet to receive any acknowledgement whatsoever. I know of others in the same boat. I'm sure the team are extremely busy but surely they could extend the courtesy of a reply. I would therefore be keen that you point out that investors relations are somewhat to be desired and may indeed be one of the factors for the depressed share price - why should anybody invest when there are no brokers notes and no response from the company? Numerous other opportnities out there. I would have thought that due to their foreign domicile they would have considered or indeed encouraged investor contact. You only need to take a look at the RCG thread to see how accomodating the management team were yesterday! Now I've got that off my chest, I would like to hear of any forecasts. Like Moosie101 I'm keen to hear whether they have sufficient cash to see them through to profitability but it would be nice to know whether we are looking at breakeven/profitabil How do they see the growth in the market? Who are the main competitors? What is the current percentage of recurring revenues? How many others similar in nature to the 7 year maintenance contract with BAA? What are the margins on the contracts? They seem to be bringing in several high value contracts but at what sort of margin? Are these contracts simply low margin so as to bring in prestigious clients? I'd be interested to know exactly what is meant by "marketable securities". Are these short term investments? Do they plan in appointing a company broker? Appreciate you fielding any or all of those questions and I'm sure you've far more pertinent ones up your sleeve:-) Kind reagrds, GHF |
