Managed IT services, cyber security and cloud hosting company SysGroup (SYS) has announced results for its half-year ended 30th September 2022 and that “trading for the second half has continued with positive momentum and the board is therefore confident in meeting its full year expectations”. So what’s the detail here?
SysGroup (SYS) recently issued a trading update stating that it “is pleased to report a strong trading performance, despite the challenging macro-economic environment”. With the shares having fallen from approaching 50p last year to a 24p offer price, such a trading performance suggests a lowly valuation and strong recovery potential.
Cyber security group Falanx (FLX) has issued a trading update noting full-year organic revenue growth of circa 14% and “the pipeline is not only much larger in terms of financial value but also has a high level of advanced prospects”. So what of a current approaching 22% share price rise to 0.70p?
Electrical components and control equipment group Dewhurst (DWHT) has announced a “Cyber Incident”, though also states that it “expects the impact to the underlying trading of the business to (be) minimal with revenues expected to remain broadly in line with current market expectations”. So what of a current more than 10% share price fall to 1250p?...
Hello Share Pilots. Have you noticed viruses don't seem as much a threat as they used to be for we private owners? Perhaps its because the search platforms have beefed up their protection. And cyber security is still very lucrative. One of the more successful cyber security merchants is Corero Network Security (CNS). It's numbers are just out and they're pretty exciting.
Shares in cyber security group Shearwater (SWG) are down from more than 200p reached early last summer and more than 140p as recently as November to currently 99p to buy. There is clear trading expectations risk, but also reasons for optimism that the shares will spark again and they now look a risk/reward Buy.
Hello, Share Thrusters. Cyber security is a hot business, with companies and governments terrified of forking out huge sums in compensation when their IT systems are hacked. At present, hardly a week goes by without some big entity being compromised. An outfit which works hard to quash this foul crime is Manchester-based NCC Group (NCC).
Fishing retailer Angling Direct (ANG) has announced that, following a cyber attack, it now has “regained control of its websites and social media channels… is confident it has now eradicated any threat from its systems”. So what of the shares, currently just above 60p?…
Fishing retailer Angling Direct (ANG) has notified of a “cyber security incident”, though emphasising that it currently “does not anticipate that this incident will have a detrimental impact on underlying trading” and that it “does not hold any customer financial data as our website transactions are handled by third parties”.

Falanx Group (FLX) “is pleased to announce the launch of its new cyber security assessment tool, Falanx: Cyber Exposure Level (“f:CEL”)” – and the shares are currently 1.225p, approaching 17% higher. Is a market cap of now £6.4 million justified?…
Previously writing on cyber network security company Corero (CNS) I noted having warned on the balance sheet position, now “New borrowings facility”…, concluding the £68 million market capitalisation looked to demand clear evidence that the business can deliver materially profitable bottom-line performance from here. Today full-year 2020 results…
Previously writing on self-styled “a leading provider of real-time, high-performance, automatic Distributed Denial of Service cyber defense solutions” Corero Network Security (CNS), in January I questioned the overall balance sheet position. Today “New borrowings facility”…
Previously writing on cyber security group ECSC (ECSC), in November with the shares at 70p I concluded wanting to see bottom-line financial impact of “growing demand” before reconsidering my stance to avoid. The shares last closed at 75p, though today 2020 results…
A “Triarii to include Microsoft Azure Sentinel”-titled announcement from ‘cyber security and strategic intelligence services group’ Falanx (FLX) and the shares currently 50% higher in response, to 1.425p. Does that seem justified?…
The company is cyber security outfit ECSC Group (ECSC) and in this podcast I dissect its finals from last year, interims, recent trading statement and other red flags leading me to explain why you should not buy into the hot sector argument and should not touch it with a bargepole.
Cyber security group ECSC (ECSC) “is pleased to announce an update on trading” – and the shares are currently approaching 4% higher at 70p…
“ECSC (AIM: ECSC), the provider of cyber security services, announces that on 21 August 2020, the company cancelled options over 588,037 new ordinary shares in the company… the company also granted options over 588,037 new ordinary shares to the same directors, PDMRs and company employees”. Sounds suspicious…
Provider of cyber security and strategic intelligence services, Falanx (FLX) has updated its long-suffering investors with news including “sales orders were lower in April and May but began to accelerate from June onwards as organisations respond to Cyber security issues of working from home and its increased risk profile. The board is pleased that this increase in sales has continued into the second quarter of the financial year”…
Previously writing on cyber security group ECSC (ECSC), last year with the shares having fallen from above 77.5p to 67.5p I questioned “a solid base for ongoing growth” and concluded to avoid. Now a trading update for the first half of 2020 emphasising “Continued strong growth in recurring managed services revenues” and the shares at 65p, though that being up 4% on the update…
Cyber security and strategic intelligence services group Falanx (FLX) has updated we long suffering investors with news including that it “experienced strong trading with circa £1m of significant new orders between December and mid-February in the Cyber division” and “discussions with our customer base indicate that they expect to resume spending on cyber security-related measures once they move away from their immediate crisis planning, and their home-based working infrastructure has bedded in”. The shares have currently responded higher, to 0.825p…
A “Managed Services Contract Win” from ECSC Group (ECSC) – and the shares have responded more than 10% higher to 77.5p. But it’s an RNS Reach - i.e. “non-regulatory news releases such as marketing messages, corporate and product information” - announcement. Hmmm…
Hello, Share Skimmers. Maybe the word Osirium means something to you, but I own up to ignorance of the subject. And I do wish directors would not choose obscure names which are hard to remember. That said Osirium Technologies (OSI) looks a firm worth keeping tabs on.
Falanx (FLX) has announced results for its year ended 31st March 2018 will be on 14th August this year. That compares to 10th July last year. So a cause for concern? We think not…
A series of contract wins announced mean that Falanx (FLX) is clearly beyond that inflexion point where a ramp up in sales means that it is beyond breakeven. That means there is no more need to place shares which is good for we long standing and supportive shareholders. Moreover, with a high gross margin of 50%, it means that operational gearing can now kick in and that will start to drive a sharp ramp up in profitability. This good news is far from discounted in the share price, at 5.6p-5.7p the market cap is still less than £15 million. So the latest news...
Recently folks have been panicked into selling shares in Falanx (FLX) as market abusers spread some clear and silly lies about the company. Falanx has answered in the best way possible with a massive contract win which, we reckon, means that it is now operating at very close to breakeven or better. And it will soon get much better than that for we shareholders.
Four times in the past three or four months we have advised our readers to bank big gains on shares we tipped - the one before the one before last was a 77% profit (offer to bid ) in just 12 days. But though we target quick gains, most tips take rather longer to make money for our readers. take Falanx (FLX) we tipped it last year at a 4.75p offer - it is a solid cashed up fast growing cyber security play. We like it so much we own a few shares too but won't be selling any of them till after our readers bank big gains. The shares are now 9.5p -10p! That is a potential 100% offer to bid profit!
Hello Share Graters. I’m always trying to find companies you may not be aware of. It’s a way of widening the scope of this largely critical website. Today I commend to your further investigation a company called Defenx (DFX).
We own Falanx (FLX) shares and are currently well over 100% up on our investment with stock at 9.5p mid. HotStockRockets readers are now 100% ahead on the share tip too. So with the stock surging on the basis of the massive cyber attack that started on the NHS on Friday what to do? First realise that this is a political scandal.
At 6.25p-6.5p cyber security group Falanx (FLX) is capitalised at just £8.2 million. We think it will go higher. It is well up on our share tip at a 4.25p offer so the stance is hold but this should be trading at well over 8p to sell ( our target) post the year end trading statement in a few weeks. But pro tem we were told last week that it has appointed Craig Dawson as Chief Finance Officer with immediate effect - check out his CV.
In a very strong contender for non news of the week Falanx (FLX) has announced the creation of a new business unit, Falanx Cyber Technologies. Right.
Like London buses in days gone by, announcements from Falanx (FLX) do not happen for what seems like an eternity then three arrive on one day.
There is a very strong AGM statement today from Falanx (FLX). I must declare that we own shares in this company. What follows is a Q&A I have just done with Mr Falanx John Blamire.
Writing last month on NCC Group (NCC) on the back of a confusing profit warning or not announcement which included “difficulties with” and “challenging” previous acquisitions, I noted despite this and a £47.5 million net debt position, the company looked to “continue with our measured acquisition strategy and anticipate acquiring additional boutique cyber security consultancies over the next few months”. There is now an announcement of “Acquisition of US cyber security consultancy”…
