Share Options Can anyone enlighten me. I always thought that share options were meant to incentive staff to improve performance and thus share price. How can issuing options at below the current share price act as an incentive? Options at 5.625P and current share price 6.4p.
Director/PDMR Shareholdingl Its encouraging to see Hugh Cox, Founder & Chief Data Officer, purchase 165,00 shares into his SIPP yesterday. He is now reported as having a total interest of over 10Million (5.85%) shares in the company
Re: Full year results Would agree pencil. Sold out after a good re-rread and think.
Full year results Full year revenues down on the previous year was worse than I expected. When they are making a loss of over 50% of sales and revenues are declining it seems questionable whether they have a viable business here at all. Cash flow breakeven is apparently in sight but I thought that was the case a year ago. The recent acquisition may transform the business but I am not going to hang around to find out.
BE I think BE could finally be very close. First sniff of that then Buy if not already holding.
microsoft coming back maybe a bit leaky on the T/O front microsoft back sniffing.. buy Vela Tech they just invested more into this

5 YEAR DEAL Whitbread selects Rosslyn Data Technologies to help deliver savings [link]
shares the pros are buying by Selin Bucak, David Campbell on May 22, 2017 at 050 [link] Citywire AAA-rated small cap specialist Dr Paul Jourdan has used a share issue at ‘big data’ analyst Rosslyn Data Technologies (RDTR) to open up a chunky position in the business. Jourdan increased his stake in the company from 2.24 million shares to just over 21 million or 11.1% worth £1.05 million at a share price of 5p. The shares are held in his £89.5 million Amati VCT fund range, which he runs alongside co-managers Douglas Lawson and David Stevenson, both also AAA-rated. Rosslyn Data raised a total £4.5 million in new equity, in an issue also supported by micro-cap fund Kestrel Opportunities, to fund its acquisition of rival Integritie, allowing it to greatly expand the types of data it is able to crunch. Chief executive of the business Roger Bullen described the purchase as ‘significant’ and said it would also enable the business to rapidly scale up on its increased customer base.

Half year results Disappointing revenues. If you want to adjust for the one off receipt last year and for the two contracts deferred to H2 this year then you could claim an underlying increase of about 15%, but since a lot of the revenues are clearly lumpy I am not sure that is justified and 15% isn't what i had hoped for anyway. It does seem that the partnerships are taking longer than expected to generate revenue. Note also that cost of sales increased.The good news is that cash outflow has fallen and cash has actually increased by £150,000 in the 2 and a half months since the half year ended.Management also make encouraging noises about the current half year's revenues and management has not historically overhyped the performance so this probably does mean something. They want to increase US marketing but seem to be saying they won't do so until they can afford to.All in all it still seems plausible that the cash they hold will be sufficient to take them through to cash flow break-even, so no dilution. Obviously it would be highly undesirable for existing holders if they raised further funds at the current price. If they can get to cashflow break even the shares will look cheap.
Good progress Results very much in line with the earlier trading update and confirm good progress. With the increasing number of partners doing much of the selling for them, revenue should accelerate next year. Note the board say: "The Board believes that we have adequate cash resources to take the Group through to break-even and cash generation." That certainly seems plausible given the trends in profit and cash flow, so I don't see why they would want to raise further funds at the current price. (They give the impression they are already spending enough on R&D and in building direct sales, given that a lot of the sales growth will come through partners.)Although small I think this is a class act with a lot of potential (and so much better value than the likes of Wandisco) although it may take the market a while to wake up to it (hence only a "weak buy"
