It seems they are doing their best to destroy shareholder value. Get the trading update out and give data driven projections. The buyback was meant to increase liquidity and support the share price neither of which is happening. Announce a dividend and back track on the buyback.

Drip, drip. Fix the leak!

And by growth I mean at levels that support a share price reminiscent of the past.

Don’t agree. We know the nine month financials. There is little room for deviations from the yearly trend. However, the benefits of the investment program that should have manifested themselves through 2024 via better growth figures did not appear. They need a convincing argument, backed up by data, to combat investor fatigue. The last three years have eroded capital and without any dividends to set against the decline. It really is about credibility now. The lost opportunity cost of holding will not be tolerated by the investor base much longer, words are not sufficient. Time to see concrete evidence of growth.

Seriously? It is a joke. The buyback is completely ineffective and ill judged. The volumes permissible are too restrictive to allow the primary concept of a buyback to be enacted. Dividends were the boost we needed.

Any way days away from the financials and hoping they have something up their sleeve or at least a forward statement indicating organic growth way above this years.

What has happened to the buy back?

During the first half of 2024, we will be upgrading our web presence to enable the Group to communicate more effectively with the marketplace through video and social media. We remain confident in our opportunity to take a leadership position in the market given our differentiated technology brand

Last Feb in the annual accounts the above was stated. Did anyone come across any social media or videos for investors? I didn’t. This years financials are due any day now and hoping they can clarify the benefits of Saleforce integration and new training centre as they previously stated the benefits would shine through H2 2024. It’s hard not to lose faith with this one. Promising market but share price needs a boost from the company, not everything can be laid at the door of the AIM market. We were also promised better shareholder communication but other than regulatory requirements there has been no news.

All the high volume trades over the last few days seem to be at mid price without any accompanying RNS on them being related to buybacks but whatever the situation it is time for investors to receive some payback.

‘We appreciate the continued support of our shareholders and will be calibrating the delivery of our growth plan with better communication on the value of our shares given the headwinds facing the AIM market."

Well it is time that we saw a tangible return and some discernible action as the last few years have been hard for investors here. The statement above suggests more engagement but nothing so far

Interesting but not related to the buyback as the daily amount the nominated party is allowed to buy is dictated by the daily volumes. That is way too high.

The 2 bigger purchases were only a tad over the asking price which in this illiquid share is unusual but that said positive for WATR.

Apologies for the grammar in parts of the below. On a phone so difficult to review and the message gets cleared if not posted within a certain time! It would be nice if the site provided the ability to edit posts.

Just to add I get the feeling the chairman is aligned and cognitive of shareholders wishes and hopes. As a major shareholder and an aging one there may be an exit plan being considered. Prove up the growth and sell the company late 2025? Either way 2025 is a decisive year. If the investment and extra staff lead to addressing the backlog, the introduction of innovative solutions and both increasing sales to both existing and new clients we will be rewarded but we need to see those contracts published and build share price momentum.

Still see it as a buy at these levels. Fingers crossed for 2025

If you look at the interims versus nine months at end of Sept statutory profit was £4.7 (6 months) versus £6.1m for 9 months. On a pro rata basis a slight dip but haven’t gone back over prior years to see whether this is a normal yearly dynamic.

The share buyback is not working. The buyback is limited based on daily volumes and with trading so thin it is going to take an age to buy any significant volumes. And when in the Treasury Account what are there intentions? Hopefully cancellation but not stated.

We appreciate the continued support of our shareholders and will be calibrating the delivery of our growth plan with better communication on the value of our shares given the headwinds facing the AIM market." Anyone want to translate into English?

That said there are on the right path but the organic growth promised is not shining through. I would like to see the projections for next year and get comfort that the investments are paying off. Maybe a bit more tempo and self promotion needed, but most of all quantifying said backlog for 2025. Definitely the potential to reach above £6 a share and a dual listing would speed it up

2023 and the start of 2024 investors were asked to be patient as the company made investments in a new corporate centre and the integration with Salesforce. The payback was meant to be seen in H2 2024. The reward for patience has been a share price falling and then stagnating.

The company recognised the disconnect and yet they are the very people responsible for it. The buyback has been utterly pointless with daily volumes dictating the insignificant volumes.

I don’t care about the ‘next 50’. I care about the next year. There has to be better PR (which they promised). When was the last RNS on new contract wins? Time for better

Trump tariffs? Are you serious. If anything this is closer to a ‘trump trade’. Virtually all water intelligence’s revenue is generated in the States and US smaller company funds are all jumping upwards. If only we were listed in the States!

What is going on here? There was a large sell trad3 at 350 yesterday and then strange price action again today. No news in the public domain and a pre year end update to come mapping out growth. All looks good

August 2024:

- is there a chance you will take this private and deprive long suffering supporters?

EC – we have no plans for that course of action at present but always subject to change

The board have surpassed themselves in their ability to walk this down.

In essence this is good news. The company has secured funding to continue as a ‘going concern’. The alternative was very much baked into the price. However, as is frustratingly too common reiteration of bad performance gets punished twice (hopefully not a third time on results day or this separate announcement could have been rolled into the one next week).

Good luck holders and let’s hope the company reward our patience

A week or two away from the financials and we know the score. The strategy and current state of play are the crucial elements of the update which should determine sp reaction not the known losses. One small aspect to consider for any optimists out there is that many have held so long that there may now be another bill raised in the second half of 2025 to be considered in 26. Not that long for firms to position themselves

*.The buyback is limited to a percentage of daily trading so it will take numerous purchases over many months to buy back any significant volume
