I think it is extremely good price, fundamentally and with all the recent news the share price should be sitting over 50p easily, but the institutions have other plans as you can see there’s always great downward pressure like low level shorts below 0.5% nipping away at it, the tensions in the Middle East. don’t really bother me investing with BATM, and it could prove to be beneficial towards the company in certain ways!
Not a bad idea, these low prices will not be around for long - at some point SP will jump in line with fundamentals
Https://www.adordx.com/ .. was just reading about the partners ADOR diagnostics have, WHO Mayo clinic and so many more … what is the timeline for the molecular diagnostics unit to be commercialised?
I think I will try to grab a few more at this manipulated low!
Israel has an estimated 80- 400 N Warheads in their possession with several methods of delivery. (source wikipedia)
Cheers guys appreciate the info and will look to add a few.
This war is not ending anytime soon sadly and like the war in Ukraine will probably escalate.
Luckily there are no nuclear weapons in the mid east.

BATM's business operations across different countries definitely helps mitigate any potential disruptions that might arise from national service requirements in Israel. Of course the tragic events unfolding are going to negatively affect the share price but as the statement they put out suggests, it wont have an effect on trading. Alwaysone, personally i think this might be a good time to buy in from an investors stand point in order to buy in cheap, i am definitely averaging down. Hopefully these tragic events resolve soon and we can enjoy some positive price action!
Pedrobull, the only business of BATM's located in Israel is the government cyber contract. Which given recently developments is more likely to expand than to halt operations for employees to be called up for national service. As Incontext mentioned, the rest of BATM's business is located in US, Italy and Hungary. From an operational standpoint it is not something to be worried about!
It's a very good question. I have tracked BVC for a long time and I was thinking of investing after that latest RNS. But I am quite risk averse and the current affairs have made me too nervous to enter yet.
Telco systems and Edgility are a BATM company based in Foxborough Massachusetts. Adaltis they own is in Rome Italy and Celitron is in Hungary. BATM issued a statement on Oct 9th that basically said that "it does not expect the tragic recent developments in Israel to have a material impact on trading"
Thats said obviously the events in Israel could effect all of us indirectly.
Just thinking of the discounted price this is trading at and interested in some of the risks with the war on Hamas will bring.
I understand the HQ of BATM is in Hod Hasharon just North of Tel Aviv.
Does anyone know how many employees work in Israel and how many in US & Europe and elsewhere?
This war could last many years and involve many more than the 300,000 reservists currently called up. If many more Israelis are called up will this potentially impact BATM operations?
Dartron I doubt you know as much about the business as the CEO ..“Along with the increasing interest that we are receiving in Edgility from potential customers globally, we are very excited about the near-term prospects for this solution." Why would they be very excited if it what you think is “I doubt it generates much profit” last post I am reading from you! Think I am getting a wet patch from laughing at your Transparency. Do you work in the same department as Iparsnip lol!
If only they would spin it off, and we could just invest in the USA company perhaps even on the NASDAQ, but what would keep the lights on back home? You echo the same comments I have made about each state having its own choice. Yes it probably is more likely other states may be interested in a successful solution, but we are not seeing any evidence of that yet. If this is an extension (which it sounds like), then they still have only 1 state as a customer, read the first RNS from June, they were offering limited services, which now have been expanded. Better than zero, I will agree, but its hardly a massive take up is it. They got a small contract extension when divided over 5 years, I'm pleased for them really. I doubt it generates much profit by the time its gone back to head office. I do think the company may see increased costs and taxes in these times. Isn't that how wars are paid for?
Dartron. From the other side of the pond to you your comments are once again wide of the mark. thanks for telling us that it is called the USA the United States of America. Many companies and service providers are State and country wide. It's actually more likely that a state will adopt a service thats working well in another state than take the initial plunge. The state of Texas for example has a GDP larger than Canada, Australia, Russia.
Why do you say that the costs for Edgility a Telco Systems American company based in Foxborough Mass will certainly rise.
You should be cautioned for knowingly spreading disinformation, if you did not spread it knowingly then best advice is to seek advice.
We have received excellent feedback from NGA regarding Edgility's performance and this expanded order is testament to their satisfaction. We expect this momentum to continue as they roll-out our solution across more of their extensive network. Along with the increasing interest that we are receiving in Edgility from potential customers globally, we are very excited about the near-term prospects for this solution."
Edgility supplied by BATM's US based division Telco Systems. Treated as an indigenous supplier by US authorities. 911 service suppliers deliver their services a across many states in the US. Wrong again Dartron.
Another RNS to calm the nerves of a few LTH, in what is a very troubling situation.
Is it anew contract or is it an existing one which has been 'expanded'? No values, so assume its small and over 5 years so unlikely to make a material difference. States in America are all independent of each other, so not necessarily so that more states will take this up. Will costs now rise for Israeli companies? For sure, they will.
Stuart there also wasn't a value on the previous 911 contract either. However this new long term contract is a big positive and can be rolled out in another 49 states. So these 911 deals will probably come thick and fast.
Unfortunately there is no mention of the value of the contract. As such, it is difficult to judge what it means.
Lol I know your 75% down or so you say iparsnip .. but the facts are the company Batm sp was over 32p in jan last year, fast forward today and they have more contracts are doing better financially with a new younger CEO that Seems to have great drive and that is getting new products ready to go and commercialised for 2023 and beyond … i’m sure you understand the way the market players it’s nearly like reverse psychology. I still see this easily worth over 40p as Telco systems is worth this on its own!
Like I thought, not one flinch on a change
All very good, but not if the SP doesn't move in the right direction. I would pleasantly surprised if the SP moves because of this.
This latest order follows the successful deployment of Edgility under the original purchase order from NGA, as announced on 5 June 2023. The Group expects to receive further orders from NGA as they continue the roll-out of the Group's Edgility solution in the current areas of deployment and expand the roll-out to NGA's network in additional US States.
I think they may have heard us… just wow BATM Keeps on delivering good news on contracts, even in these times of crisis and the macro environment. Well done and happy to add to this ridiculously undervalued business that has been played with in the markets for too long! Rant over!
Nutmeg if there are any deals in the pipeline the coming week will be the time to announce them. In this instance you are correct.
