The next focusIR Investor Webinar takes places on 14th May with guest speakers from Blue Whale Growth Fund, Taseko Mines, Kavango Resources and CQS Natural Resources fund. Please register here.
Another RNS showing booms progression. Keep going like this and Audioboom may just become profit making this year. Not just boom growing but the raiding stations within DAX have been expanding too by buying up smaller local radio stations.
Boom first came to my notice about 4/5 years ago. I checked it out after an Investor Relations person I was in regular contact with from another company moved to Audioboom to work for them. I liked the concept back then but did not see the value at the time as I did not see enough people using podcasts to make the company profitable. I bought in last year at 2.23p a short while after the latest BOD buys at 2.5p. I still think this is a very high risk share to be in, but I do see a lot of potential here especially with Smart speakers coming into play big time now. Smart speakers are only really getting going here in the UK but are really being pushed now, primarily with Amazons Echo. Where up until recently you need to download podcasts or search and stream, now all you need to do is speak out: Alexa, play me Beyond the Grid. There are quite a few companies that are doing the same thing as Audioboom but the growth is going to be massive. Whether BOOM succeeds, gets bought out or crashes no one knows but it is certainly an exciting prospect.
Asking for 2.615 to buy and 2.46 to sell, so creeping up. Time to leave alone and see what end of day brings. gla
Be nice now Oakwood. Still way more sells so far and a lot of those trades are mixed up. I would not be surprised if share price does turn around later today. Could even see bod and ii buying. All speculation ofc. I do agree with gunner that next year there will likely be more fund raising but this years funds are sorted and you never know, boom may finally crack it this year and not need funding the following year. The F1 and Spotify news shows that BOOM is making progress.
Gunner, do what I do and spread your funds over 10-30 different companies. No stress what so ever (unless you pick alphabetically lol). Divide your funds by say 20, for each company, and invest only that set amount. I also allow myself one top up for any share that drops but still looks promising. Most people fail at investing purely because they over invest. Anyway, good to see your sticking around, negative comments are always welcome as long as they are constructive. And that goes for positive comments too!
Some decent buys going through. That 12k sell was a buy for sure. Getting 2.40 to sell and 2.50 to buy.
I am able to buy and sell again for last 10 mins with my broker. 2.425 to buy 2.25 to sell.
Just 30% down now. Will it swing round once all the sell orders have been disposed off or will it drop again? I have a hunch it will rise, but any bodies guess.
buyable via IG -the share is 34% down currently.
Not sure if good or bad but I can not buy via my broker. - We no longer allow investment in this stock.
Looks like spread has been widened to accomadate those wishing to sell. I wonder how many have put sell orders in. Going to get stung.
Now these 2 RNS have thrown a spanner in the works. F1 podcast will be a massive hit. I’m getting excited. They should do a womans beach volley ball one too!
Well that is the 50 EMA sdx has retraced to. Could be the place to buy in at.
Lol that made me chuckle. Problem with bod selling is it encourages shorts. It also is a signal that no other news is likely to come out for a while and we all know that shares drift lower on no news. Investors need to decide how long their investment here is for and whether they are investors or traders. I’m sure this will do very well in time but very few shares go straight up. It is a shame though that bod keep ruining things by selling. For all you know, he may need the cash to invest in a new business adventure. Gla
With the most recent short buy, they must be expecting the sp to break down through the support. Am I correct where the decline started with bod sell and then shorts? Looking at last results the financials look a bit weird in regards of EBITDA has improved by 8.5m yet the profits have decreased by 2.7m. The decline in profits would not of helped the share price, but the depreciation & amortisation has increased a lot since last year. With the asset value also increasing by just over double I would expect the depreciation & amortisation to increase but it still seems rather high.
Ignore that. Just reread broker ratings news and I have misread. The broker targets are good, being at the 600p area. So, its just the shorts that is the problem.
Where this company is doing well with good last results it is still in a decline started from the BOD sell last year at 450p which imo has prompted the short selling. I am interested in buying in but not while shorts are being increased. The more recent broker targets are also only around the 300p mark so they are not expecting too much. Technically, the SP has now bounced of support 3x. The more support gets hit, the weaker it becomes. If it breaks there is only minor support at 223 and then 160. On my watch list now. Will watch how the short positions go and see if a bargain entry point comes around.

So boom failed in a reverse take over to secure the funds. Not very clever. Besides that the company has improved and has been in line with what it set out to do for the year. Funding has been secured for another year by major investors and bod. It personally does not look that bad imo. Selling upon open on 14th June is likely to be pi selling. Quote from results: The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will have sufficient funds to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Following the recent successful placing and subscription to raise £4.5 million, the Board's forecasts for the Group, including due consideration of the continued operating losses, projected increase in revenues and decreasing cash-burn of the Group (and taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance), indicate that the Group will have sufficient cash available to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months and beyond.
Will be interesting to see where this goes on the 14th June. The results were inline with forecasts financially, which in itself should not be detrimental to the share price. There is how ever the funding dilution of approx 15% (if I have read right). This dilution though was to be expected as the company was not expected to make a profit yet and would need funding again. So how far will it drop is any ones guess. I am going for 25% based on panic selling. Anything more than that and I will be considering topping up.
