Ben Richardson, CEO at SulNOx, confident they can cost-effectively decarbonise commercial shipping. Watch the video here.
Looks to me someone is deliberately dumping to buy big and boost the launch I’m not expecting any rise today but with the rns of a successful launch if you can top up on the low which will be 9-10p
Should have Googled sorry https://www.rocketlaunch.live/launch/superbird-8-dsn-1-hy
If I’m not mistaken we have lift off tomorrow? Is there a live launch link video anywhere?
I’m fully in agreement with this, to be honest I hope for £1+ and that’s still being conservative

I think it was 2 days, not uncommon as we home in on the date for weather (or optimal) conditions to disturb the exact date by +\- days... say all is good right now - no concerns other than the share price is still far to low
Usually weather starts playing into the date/ time/ hour as we deltas closer ... they’ve probably got some sub optimal forecast from the long range prediction... it won’t be until 7-10days before until it’s nailed down...
Sorry written from phone, lots of grammar/ spelling issues which are trolls love on this board (wasn’t intended apologies to all)
I see the MM’s have steadily increased the spread on this over the last week HL for example show buy at 10.75 and sell at 8. Need a good solid RNS to get punters moving and break through to the next level... been to long at this 9p price... floors been seen at 6p ceiling I’m guessing is somewhere in the double digits but below 50p... perhaps an update on H4 arriving such as its successful fuel up and drain down tests moving to it safely arriving at French Guyana or where ever the bird is launching from in 8 weeks...
I bought more today as well although not showing on here or HL website (where I did the transaction)
That is on max term contracts of 6 months... if people want the security then let them pay... why is it we need to depreciate MRC the longer the term - why can’t we just turn that model upside down... hey bro sorry can’t guarentee your still dealt in my product in 6 months if someone comes along and wants to pay more than you they will have it... you want 2 year security well here’s a better price than my competition but drastically up on my short term price... Avanti need to be agile, the setup and installation can be sunk in £400 lobby to broadband UK with that model and get some of that capital before the government closes the door
To be fair Brad it’s not like you don’t have enterprise channel partners in the UK, the real difficult sell here is volume capacity, people are expecting an all you can eat buffet for £100 a month and speeds of 20mbps down 5 up for that... The realism is its not profitable and stragically whilst avant could sell capacity at a loss and steal the market share from tooway I think there hoping for a better win in Africa. That old saying if i was president or prime minister.... well I’d flood the market with my cheap capacity then when our i’d Start to rid myself of the bottom feeders and free myself up for people willing to pay the realistic buck for the bandwidth - a bird empty isn’t paying the bills, a bird sold cheaply is at least maintaining the interest if not chipping off the capital... time to open the flood gates and give it away imho
1. Investment is in satellites (manufacturing, launching and the ground stations to use and resell services) each satellite costs an average £280m, the ground station to build with diverse antennas, redundant hubs and assured diverse connectivity is another good chunk all in all the investment is sound at £1.2B... ROI whilst arguable the hub technology has a life of 5 -7 years the remaining components can be used depreciate over 15-20 years.... 2. I believe that there is lots of capacity in the H1 and H2 and H4 space craft, whilst some may argue H1 and H2 are mini satellites - H4 is arguable in the big league. With hungry customers like Bentley Walker, EE/ BT to mention a few they should be easily filling H1 and H2 in the coming years, Remember EE is only going live around now for acutal usage with blue lights in UK... 3. Debt situation should be taken lightly they have a high cost of interest on the debt, this is likely to down grade as there credit rating improves and is already showing signs of this... 4. No comment 5. Avanti are carving there own name, specifically I. Cellular back haul over satellite for 4G I think they might be the biggest player currently in the world, for 5G there seeking to continue being a market leader... given that in the industry they exist they are a relatively new name perhaps toe to toe with the like Yahsats the big players like Inmarsat, Eutelsat, Viasat, Intelsat and Hughes have all recently lost market ground to Avanti... 7. Undoubtedly the successful launch of H4 in April 18 and seeing the finicials of presigned contracts starting to generate revenue. 8. Over Africa probably Yahsat and Eutelsat both have their own demons... over UK I’d say AVN is the leader, over Europe hard to say... undoubtedly the rest of the global coverage is difficult... 9. In this forum - your missing negative energy and extreme pessimism for their expected failure :-) Even if the dooms day scenerio, with H4 in the sky and a sell up: buy out I can’t expect the company would be less than £1.80 per share... But personally I’m a glass half full guy hoping for 60p by February and £1+ by April - I don’t think those figures are unrealistic I just think the punters are else where/ lost confidence in this share... Anyway all those who wish to poo poo this your welcome :-) I’m fingers in ears and eyes closed any how :-) ciao
Ready for launch I suppose given the formal launch date in April 18 recently released. Not heard much about H3 though since the declaration of faulty components failing tests...
Not sure I make your connection, Skynet 4/ 5 are all x-band, Hylas fleet is Ka band. The user groups who buy COTS tend to be special to role assignment users - it is rarely ever used in mainstream operations less it be for troop welfare or non restricted logistical systems. There was a study commissioned by the ESA known as Gov Sat Com which was scoping the gap analysis of X, vs COTs as well commercial advantages and expedited delivery that said however the PFI contract owned by Airbus plays a substantial role in the utilization and as they win by using their own satellites (skynet) and detract profits through the use of other satellite operators I fail to make the connection of your statement... The proof in the pudding will be the frequency band of the successor system to skynet/ be it Global Express from Inmarsat or another new fleet of birds, if this was declared with Ka Band payloads then one should get very excited.
With all the chatter on this board this weekend let's hope the opening is strong, I'm firmly holding all my shares until the launch of H4 fact
Is she, is she not is a million dollar question for everyone. I've said it many times over it would be better for all if we reserve posting on this board merely to only solid negative facts or positive news. We're all waiting with baited breath I don't think all this recent noise of personal attacks is doing this stock, or the personal credibility of anyone any good. Let us all go to the mattresses until we have something useful to say - how many of us will say here here?
Not many place orders for advance unless your a DTH service provider. Once the birds flying and capacity is available to buy today will the true numbers come knocking at the door.
I believe this is a £1+ share come the launch of Hylas 4 in Mar 18. I don't doubt for a second its not going up, the 6 months after launch will be the most interesting time.
For a long time now there were spurious trades of low volume buying and selling, I've noted from the other posts looking at the indicative trades all the volumes now seem to be of credible volume, as opposed to previously there would be tranches of small volume sells, then a small buy whereby the trading transactions would cost more than the buys/ sells... anyone have any comment on this?
