KRM22

On track to achieve 350% growth in 2019

Within the capital markets (re exchange/OTC traded securities) managing and pricing risk are 2 of the most important issues facing any investor. Hence, it’s astonishing how many broker-dealers, fund managers and even professional institutions still rely on ‘gut feel’ to assess their overall portfolio exposures. Largely because there is no alternative. In fact, there appears to be very few (if any) fully integrated ‘RiskTech’ systems that can accurately capture, aggregate, manipulate and intelligently report ‘live’ asset prices, positions, volatility, margin requirements, liquidity, duration, collateral and so on. Meaning many C-suite executives, compliance officers and operational managers simply ‘fly blind’ with regards to what is actually happening at the coal-face in real-time.

Upgrading forecasts after strong H1

“Don’t fight the Fed” is a tried and tested Wall Street strategy that has worked a treat over the past decade. Basically it states that when US interest rates fall, global equities should rise thanks to lower borrowing costs for consumers and corporates alike. Similarly after last week’s dovish testimony to Congress by FOMC Chair, Jerome Powell, we believe this bias towards more monetary easing should keep the economy ticking along, and places a ‘Put’ under valuations

Minoan Group

The tide has turned

Recent events, notably Greece’s switch to a more business-friendly administration after its General Election last weekend, continue to shift the prevailing political and economic winds in Minoan’s favour. This result followed the swing to the right in the Regional, Municipal, and European elections in May. This update provides a very brief summary of the current economic and political backdrop in which the group operates. We intend to follow this with a further more detailed note as the project’s value and realisation become more evident.

Blancco Technology Group

Blancco is back & beating expectations

Watershed events by their very nature have the power to reshape entire industries. Take cyber-security, which this week saw the UK's data privacy regulator (ICO) slap fines of £183.4m & £99.2m for GDPR breaches on British Airways & Marriott Hotels respectively. Enormous sums of money that will surely send shivers down the spines of Boardrooms worldwide.

Kromek Group

Rare ‘hi-growth disrupter’ at modest price

Given the S&P500 is within a whisker of all-time highs, it is virtually impossible to find undervalued, high quality, growth stocks - especially those possessing ‘disruptive’ technology and addressing $bn end-markets. However we think Kromek, a leading next generation radiation detection business, is one. Today it posted FY19 turnover up 22.6% LFL to £14.5m (vs £11.8m LY), alongside a 4-fold increase in EBITDA (pre SBPs) to £2.0m (£0.5m). Better still momentum accelerated throughout the period, with H2’19 EBITDA coming in at £2.5m (margin 23.3%) on sales of £10.8m (£7.0m LY).

Fastforward Innovations

Firing on all cylinders

Being able to consistently deliver out-sized investment returns, is all about managing risk and finding high quality, growth stocks at the right price. We’ve seen this already in 2016 with many such smallcaps, like Keywords Studios, Fevertree Drinks, Boohoo, GW Pharmaceuticals and Tristel. Another stock we think that in due course could join this select band, is FastForward (up 100% since mid Oct’15) which invests exclusively in rapidly expanding technology firms. Today FFWD holds non-controlling positions in nine such privately owned businesses, which we understand are all either meeting or exceeding their internal plans. Here, progress was said to be “incredibly positive and very encouraging” yesterday, with updates being released in relation to three of them.
