STTsBumbag, you know those bear points were proven wrong on 13th July. The company results and Investor Presentation provide all the answers. Yet you have chosen to deliberately repeat them.

Those bear were proven wrong by the presentation and results.
Declining organic revenue
During a General Election there is usually uncertainty in NHS over new government plans.

"The year ended 31 March 2020 was a good year for Totally delivering profit before depreciation and amortisation during times of unrivalled political instability which included BREXIT and a General Election followed by the worldwide pandemic of COVID-19 which has impacted on every person and every business."
"New contract wins were adversely impacted by the uncertainty created by Brexit and the general election. NHS commissioning understandably paused during this time; nonetheless, the Group was able to secure extensions of several existing contracts across the Group, plus a significant new contract for Planned Care, in Manchester. The new Insourcing division delivered over £1m in revenues in its first period of trading."

Increasing losses
Same as your 1st point. Understandably, the NHS have been renewing contracts but have paused new ones.
"The loss before tax of £3.4m is stated after an amortisation charge of £2.8m relating to the intangible value of contracts acquired."

Weak balance sheet
"The Group is cash generative and responded with the distribution of our maiden dividend in February 2020. The Board is also proposing the payment of a full year dividend of 0.25 pence per share, payable in October 2020. The intention is to consider future dividend payments based upon the trading performance of the Group."

Possible share overhang
That's rubbish, as ex-GBH holders were expected to sell and new/current II have bought.
Miton trimmed down their TLY holding probably due to their investors withdrawing funds, as they have had to do on previous occasions, as stated in this article.

"To fund withdrawals, Williams has trimmed some of his holdings while selling out of others completely. The number of stocks in the portfolio has fallen from 89 at the end of May to 56 at the end of last year."

No visibility (lack of guidance/broker forecasts)

The timing of NHS contract tenders has been delayed due to Covid 19.

"Whilst we expect the business to grow in 2021 and beyond, due to current run rates and new contract wins, the timing of new tenders, which is a key part of our growth plans, remains uncertain due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the NHS. We are therefore unable to give firm guidance at this stage on our growth expectations for the current financial year and the Board has considered it appropriate for market forecasts to be withdrawn at this time. The medium to long term outlook and trajectory of the business however remains unchanged."

Safi,
Good post.
I think there is going to be another stockmarket crash soon.
Too much economic uncertainty and too many uncertain events coming together in such a short space of time, which could trigger another crash.
Over the next 6 months:
US Presidential Election
Brexit - potentially no deal
China - US trade war
China - India border clashes.. also India, Australia, Japan military build up in South China Sea
EU - Turkey Potential confrontation over Turkey/Greek border.
UK economy - furlough coming to an end. 9m on furlough, potentially millions will lose their jobs, 2m mortgage payment hols coming to an end in Oct.

Do some research on CTV and TRMR...I think you'll find it's not the money spinner in terms of "organic growth" for TRMR that people on here are saying.

Good luck

Rivaldo,
"we now know that a poster called "Cooltools" who'd bought 10m shares sold them all at the highs " "This certainly helps to explain why the share price fell back from the 1.7p-1.8p levels."

That's not the case. He clearly stated that he sold on 10th July. The sp on 10th July was 1.06 to 1.25.
Whereas the highs of 1.7/1.8 were achieved 28/29 May, some 6 weeks earlier!!
So the sp was already falling before he decided to sell.

drshaggy,
Sorry to hear about your circumstances.
I sincerely wish you the very best in the future.

"after revealing that a surge in demand for Dettol and Lysol disinfectants had helped to drive an increase in its sales."

Rickitt Benckiser surge in demand was expected. Their products are alcohol based.
WHO, CDC are Dettol all promote alcohol based sanitiser. Byot's is not alcohol based, so while there will be a spike in sales for Byot's sanitiser, I thnk majority of the demand for sanitisers will be for alcohol based sanitiser.

WHO:
"Wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand rub if your hands are not visibly dirty."
https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public

CDC:
"If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty."
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/prevention-treatment.html

Dettol
"If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer"

"And is due to be available in USA for sale again very soon"

Surely they should have had their products already on sale. It's already months since the alarm over the Covid 19.

Their trial at Target finished at end of March. Unfortunate, bad timing.

No update from the company for over 2 months now.

There will be fakes, illegal products out there. Always best to buy a reputable product from a reputable retailers.

And a mcap of only £33m

dflynch,
"strong demand for home hygiene products and hand sanitiser "

Unilever's hand santiser contains alcohol, as recommended by WHO, CDC, NHS etc
Byot's is alcohol free.

As I posted ages ago, majority of the public would follow WHO's advice, so Unilever's statement of a surge in demand was expected.

Unilever also switched production within 25 days.

Why would unilever want to take over Byot when they can switch production within days and they manufacture alcohol based sanitiser?

"We’ve also adapted some Unilever sites to produce sanitisers, and learnt from the experts in our deodorants business who know about working with flammable liquids (like deos, hand sanitiser contains alcohol). Our factory in Vietnam was the first to make a major change, switching production to hand sanitiser in just 25 days."

"As long as the products could meet the WHO standards of a minimum of 60% ethanol content in sanitiser, we decided we wouldn’t worry about bottle shapes or designs. When the priority is meeting demand during a pandemic, how the products look is much less important."

WHO:

"Wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand rub if your hands are not visibly dirty."
https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public

Byot provided a TU every month since the lockdown...on 23/03, 27/04 & 14/05 but nothing in June and only a week to go in July.

Without an update, I suspect there's no change since the last update and orders have slowed down as they previously indicated. I think the next update could be the results, which are due by 30th Sept.

The May update FROM THE COMPANY:

Record levels in the 1st QTR, ie to June... then optimistic of high levels, not record levels for remainder of H1...

"As we start a new financial year, we are pleased to report that sales momentum remains strong. We expect to generate record sales in the first quarter of the year and are optimistic that high levels of demand will continue for the remainder of the first half at least.

Sales in March and April 2020 each exceeded GBP1m and we are expecting to show similarly strong performance in May. Our order book at the end of April stood at over GBP2m. The Group's supply chain is working well despite the global shortage of biocidal ingredients, exacerbated by unpredictable national lockdowns and border closures."

Bald_eagle,
"you seemingly cannot admit that you made an honest mistake. There comes a point when one is in a hole it is advisable to stop digging!!"

lol... agree, I know how you feel..
It's not the 1st time either. He's not called Tricky for no reason.
:-)

Props
"like BYOT missed out June...."

When updates are missed then investors have to default to their latest, which was in May.
As oneandone says sales should be OK, which is not the same as 'record sales' that they achieved in April/May.

With the list of new outlets, it seems very likely that the 'record sales' during Apr/May was to initially stock up these outlets.
Has anyone any evidence that there have been repeat sales?

Byot provided a TU every month since the lockdown...on 23/03, 27/04 & 14/05.

Without an update, I suspect there's no change since the last update and orders have slowed down as they previously indicated. I think the next update could be the results, which are due by 30th Sept.

"14p in old money"

No. The rthm/Tap merger was 28/33, so the rthm equivalent sp is 11.8p, old money.

Best to read the company newsflow, follow the industry newsflow.

Safi

A couple of years ago, posters were speculating that one of S4's initial acquisitions would be rthm at around 500p, especially after their Yume takeover. The speculation was that Yume was US listed prior to rthm takeover and rthm continued their SEC filings, so it followed that S4 would bid for them.

I'd wait to see what they say, otherwise, like last time it could be a false dawn...
IF there is an offer, it's likely to be around 25-30% above the current sp, so around 180p-200p...

Gdog,
"But we do try to gain an edge by doing our homework, we try to invest "wisely", and being opportunistic."

Part of that homework must always be to read both bull & bear points, question the contents of a post and crucially read up about where the industry is heading.
If the bear points can be countered then it makes the bull points stronger. And vice versa.
