IQGeo Group anticipating "much higher growth in software revenues"

IQGeo Group PLC

IQGeo Group PLC (AIM:IQG) chief executive Richard Petti and chief financial officer Haywood Chapman speak to Thomas Warner from Proactive after releasing the software developer's half-year report for the six months to 30 June 2023. Petti starts by addressing the Group's acquisition of fewer new clients compared to previous years, highlighting that the company's revenues surged by 123% to over £20mln, with 83% of that increase attributed to organic growth. Petti highlighted the success of their "land and expand" strategy, emphasising long-term relationships and continuous upselling to existing customers. Chapman confirms the successful integration of recent acquisition Comsof NV, which has enabled them to secure a significant contract with a tier-one national utility provider in southern Europe, valued at €8.6mln over six years. Petti also introduced their new "editions strategy" this summer, aiming to cater to the diverse needs of their customer base, ranging from global telcos to private network operators. This strategy offers three editions of their product, ensuring each customer type receives an experience tailored to their requirements. Addressing growth predictions, Chapman acknowledges a market forecast of 8% growth for the next year but emphasises a shift in their strategy that will focus on higher-margin software revenues, potentially leading to a 48% growth in their adjusted EBITDA. The duo remains optimistic about IQGeo's competitive edge and future growth prospects. Contact Details Proactive UK Ltd +44 20 7989 0813 uk@proactiveinvestors.com

How Safe Is A Gold Investment In 2024?

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The past few years have been marked by high inflation and unstable markets. As we go into an election year – which is an economic environment known to be notoriously volatile – it's important to once again revisit what type of investments are relatively safe from market turbulence. Historically, commodities and metals have always been investors’ preferred stores of value because they help hedge against inflation. But the question remains: as the world becomes more digitized and currencies like Bitcoin take off, are commodities like gold still a worthwhile investment? According to many respected experts, the answer is yes. Gold has consistently proven itself a reliable investment option, especially during uncertain times. One such example was seen in 2020 when the global pandemic led to market pessimism and caused the price of gold to reach a historic high of $2,074 per ounce. Similarly, in 2022, Russia's invasion of Ukraine in late February drove the yellow metal's value above $2,000 once again. Following the pandemic, the gold market narrative has primarily revolved around two contrasting factors: persistently high inflation and the actions of central banks, with particular emphasis on the U.S. Federal Reserve. Central banks, like the Fed, have been raising interest rates in response to soaring consumer prices. While no investment is truly safe, this dynamic has further solidified gold's reputation as a safer investment choice for those seeking stability in uncertain economic environments. Gold has historically been considered a hedge against inflation, as it tends to retain its value or even appreciate during periods of rising prices. Analysts at UK-based Standard Chartered shared that they expect “to see gold as a core holding and a key portfolio diversifier… we expect the physical market to pick up the baton from here as we enter the seasonally strong period for consumption. The recent escalation of the Russia-Ukraine conflict is one example of a geo-political factor likely to drive safe-haven flows to gold. On a 12-month horizon, we believe gold will move higher as bond yields moderate and the USD rolls over.” When considering investing in physical precious metals, investors typically go one of two routes: investing in a Gold IRA or investing in physical gold and silver bars and coins. A Gold IRA is a type of self-directed retirement account where the holder invests in physical gold instead of conventional assets such as stocks, bonds or mutual funds. It is becoming increasingly popular as a method to prepare for retirement and help protect savings. If you are seeking additional information or ready to get started, here’s what you can do: You can rollover an existing account or open a Gold IRA account with Preserve Gold, a leading U.S.-based precious metals firm. They have 0 BBB complaints – which would seem to be notable by industry standards – and excellent reviews. The company specializes in helping individuals and families diversify and protect their wealth through tangible precious metals. Preserve Gold distinguishes itself through its focus on three core principles: integrity, transparency and consistency. These principles serve as the company’s foundation for long-lasting customer relationships and reinforce the company's commitment to providing trustworthy and reliable services. To ensure a smooth and secure purchasing process, Preserve Gold offers an informed and easy way to acquire precious metals. The company's knowledgeable team assists clients in making educated purchasing decisions while prioritizing security and ease of transaction. If you’re someone who is considering investing in gold, adding a Gold IRA to your retirement portfolio can prove to be a valuable asset. It presents a range of advantages that not only help to keep your savings afloat but could also contribute to its growth in the long run. When deciding to invest in a Gold IRA, having a trusted partner like Preserve Gold can be key to achieving your financial goals. This post contains sponsored content.

Tiziana to Announce Six-Month Human Safety and Biomarker Data at the ECTRIMS Annual Congress, Following-Up from Positive Outcomes Data Presented in June

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Tiziana (Nasdaq: TLSA) is following-up with anticipated human data and announced the acceptance of a late-breaking poster at the 39th Congress of the European Committee for Treatment and Research of Multiple Sclerosis ( ECTRIMS ) being held in Milan, Italy, October 11-13, 2023. The company will present a poster titled, “Treatment Of Six Non-Active Secondary Progressive MS With Nasal Anti-CD3 Monoclonal Antibody (Foralumab): Safety, Biomarker, And Disability Outcomes”, which is a follow-up from the positive data presented in June on 5 out of 6 patients. The key takeaway is that Tiziana’s research through its FDA authorized Expanded Access program has shown continued improvement in SPMS patients over time treated with foralumab, the Company’s intranasally administered anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody. In June, Tiziana announced a reduction in microglial activation as seen in 3-month Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans in a total of 5 of 6 patients treated. The safety and biomarker data presented at ECTRIMS will include a clinical update on all 6 patients and will include six-month of follow-up with a PET scan. Activated microglia are believed to play a prominent role in the pathogenesis of neuroinflammatory diseases including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). A reduction in microglial activation is associated with lowered inflammation in the brain. Inflammation in the brain drives the disease pathology in multiple sclerosis. In SPMS, inflammation in the brain occurs in microglia, the brain’s immune cells, which drive the neurodegeneration of brain cells. During the inflammatory process associated with SPMS, microglia are involved in the destruction of myelin, the protective sheath covering of nerve fibers, and contribute to the formation of MS lesions. The Company announced in September advancing site selection for the SPMS phase 2a trial, which will have up to ten new clinical sites across the US. The news followed an Investigator's Meeting with principal investigators at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding member of Mass General Brigham Healthcare System, to begin site initiation. Matthew W. Davis, M.D., RPh, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Medical Officer of Tiziana Life Sciences, stated in the press release, "As planned for this quarter, we are on track and have begun site initiation visits so patient enrollment begins in this critical clinical trial. Advancing our lead anti-CD3 therapeutic, foralumab, in na-SPMS into Phase 2a will enable Tiziana to define novel endpoints, such as PET imaging, a similar target endpoint in our Expanded Access program (EAP). We are encouraged as five out of six patients in our open-label EAP have improved by qualitative analysis in their PET scans (3 months of treatment) compared to baseline. Phase 2a na-SPMS study assesses the same outcome measure, but now, and for the first time for this novel therapeutic, in a double-blind, randomized placebo control, a multi-center trial is now underway.” This post contains sponsored content.
