...''is a game-changing technology that meets a pressing security need without disrupting people flow or detracting from the visitor or traveller experience,” said Zak Doffman, CEO of Digital Barriers. “The addressable market for this solution is now being measured in many thousands of units over the coming years, which will deliver a very significant payback on the ten years of development and more than £100m of investment that has resulted in this unique technology''

by Gary Newman of s hare pr of its ---- The reality is that many of these tech companies at an early stage do burn through large amounts of cash before they actually manage to start making a profit, so Digital Barriers isn’t all that unusual in that respect. But what has got my attention and could have a major impact on the company, is news that its EdgeVis Shield technology could be used in the US to build Donald Trump’s wall with Mexico – although in this case it would be a ‘virtual’ wall using the company's technology. This isn’t just something that the company has mentioned though, and it has been widely reported in the news both here and in the US. To build an actual wall would cost an estimated £8 billion, but EdgeVis could do it at a fraction of the cost and has already been proven in Afghanistan, where the company previously secured a contract with the Ministry of Defence to provide perimeter security of British bases, and subsequently 15 other nations have adopted the technology as part of their border protection. Given the size of the company, with a market cap of around £42 million currently, such a contract win would likely have a major impact, and is very tempting given it is trading at around 26p per share to buy and has just hit an all-time low share price. Aside from that, the directors do have a history in this sector, having sold their former business, Detica, to BAE Systems for £531 million back in 2008. It is also worth noting that the free float in this company is quite small, with a large proportion of shares being held by investors with an interest of 3% or more – Schroder is the largest holder with over 20%. This does tend to mean that it can move rapidly in either direction on quite low volume due to the lack of liquidity, but that does mean that if there was a contract award for the Trump wall then the share price could rise a large amount overnight. I certainly wouldn’t recommend risking your life savings in this one, but I do believe that it has potential despite past disappointments, and is the type of company that could offer large upside, given the sector that it operates in, if it was to really make it and can continue to add large contracts.

as it seems others also spotting the opportunity here, turnaround period and muti million conracts about to be signed, it starts here and an exciting year ahead

on the verge of all the new contracts and if the get the Trump Wall, we are in multi bag territory....historic low spprovides the ideal opporunity to load from the floor and the potential rewards here over coming months are very exciting and very realisable...gla :)

profitable 2017 is on the cards, contracts detailed in the RNS on Friday, a year to secure more contratcs and it appears DGB now have some traction, could well be the transformational year for all involved as every business takes time to develop, and each is unique. RNS highlights from Friday - with contract details and income heading DGB' way....pretty good start to a financial year forecast, large complex contracts take time...worth the wait with more on the way... At a detailed level, these contracts include: · A £4.3m (U$5.25m) contract in Asia Pacific, part of a military platform surveillance programme leveraging the Group's video technologies to provide an advanced capability. The contract is currently in final negotiation ahead of award and most of this revenue will now be delivered in the next financial year. · A £2.2m (U$2.75m) contract in the Middle East providing a vehicle-based surveillance system for law enforcement. This contract is currently in final negotiation ahead of award and is now likely to be delivered next financial year, with significant follow-on potential for a broader fleet deployment. · A £2.4m (U$3m) contract in Asia Pacific for our body worn EdgeVis Mobile application, now in contract negotiation ahead of a procurement award and likely to be delivered in full in the next financial year. · A £5.6m (U$7m) contract award for Brimtek partner technologies from a US federal agency, which will be for delivery in full next financial year. This is now in procurement ahead of contract award. This award will take Brimtek legacy contracted revenues for delivery next financial year to around £12m (U$15m). In addition, we are close to concluding a number of framework contracts which, whilst they do not have specific contract values, would also have led to revenues in the current financial year and are expected to lead to material revenues in future financial periods. These include: · An OEM framework contract with a specialist provider of communication services to the resources sector; · A framework contract with a major European transportation organisation for the provision of asset protection and transportation security technologies; and · A framework contract with a major European security services provider for the provision of ThruVis technology. · Our first license sale for facial recognition as embedded software in the mobility sector. This follows a benchmarking exercise of our technology against others in the market and is expected to lead to monthly revenues from next financial year. This is now in the final stages of contract negotiations

a growing company is typically a loss maker in early stages as growing costs always swallow up income, basic business mechanics and totally to be expected as multi million pound contracts are just that. Growth in the business on Aim is a driver for the sp, and profits are certainly not required to achieve substantial growth or a rising sp. Seeking profit as key driver is a misunderstanding of how business works or an sp is driven, many profitable companies have declining sp's, it's all about potential, growth and ultimately profits at a much later stage, DGB is in early stage and the rewards are in the journey from here..it wont be straight line but it does appear £14 mill worth of contracts and a whole year of further new opportunities places DGB in an excellent position to see real growth in the sp from current levels...gla :)

friday saw a large increase in volume, at 25p the mkt seemed to think it was a good price.The initial drop from32 to 26 was the mm's action the sp traded all day with no further substantial downside..interesting eh ....in addition some of the iii increased holdings just recently..interesting too...the RNS also states the value (£14 mill) of contracts expected in the next few weeks (new financial year)..DGB have a £10mill credit facility from Investec..interesting as well...and even if a placing were required for a short bridging type loan, would it not be reasonable to expect at a premium to current historic lows ? Their are contracts on the table, growth in this sector is likely to be huge and DGB are on the cusp of some pretty lucrative contratcs .......gla

at 24.89p ,happy to do so at these histric lows, contracts ahead :)

strong demand, and why not, we know whats coming :)

next financial year, and a few of them too..all in the rns..£14 mill worth, and all being hoovered up. MM's dropped it to 27p on opening most trades around 25p-26p so no great sell off as all being picked up, some big block buyers providing the clues :)

DGB aso have a £10m revolving credit facility with Investec Bank plc, so clever move, dump the new contracts into new financial year, lessen/remove any tax issues, let market know it's a very tempoarary issue and business is about to grow, some will sell cheaply , my guess is those iii that increased will increase further over coming days
