Ondo - Micro Cap to Major Cap
Southern Water Business Plan 2025-30 👇
Our customers’ priorities are clear:
‘We should significantly improve how we care for the environment – reducing pollution, storm overflow use and leakage are their highest priority areas for improvement… We should be more ambitious in some areas such as storm overflows and leakage.’
Key priorities
‘Recognising the technological limitations to repair leaks by traditional means, we will innovate to reduce leakage on our network.’
Key investment plans
‘We will invest £517 million in leakage reduction activities’

Interesting how Southern Water (currently piloting Leakbot) and a whole host of other water utility companies, are submitting similar business plans now, for Ofwat’s next review period 2025-2030.
These overlapping business plans are in addition to Ofwat’s new £100 million water efficiency fund and clearly are aimed at the water leakage issue.
Although this second huge new vertical revenue stream for Ondo is still in its early stages - if Ondo can ultimately combine the Insurance & Water Utility industries, in introducing Leakbot to their respective mass markets, I think the potential here is quite staggering!
Mass implementation into the UK market would be transformational for Ondo.
If replicated further in Europe, followed by Australasia, Asia and North America - I believe the massive numbers involved here, could rapidly metamorphosize this embryonic microcap, into a major cap company.
I believe that Leakbot - will be the right product, in the right place and at the right time.
IMHO
