Thanks Calimack for attending and providing some feedback.
How much I wish I was frankly and openly told in early 2019 (via ASX announcement) if work from CBA was drying up. Look at the announcements around the time (see extracts below - the last line of the ann on 30/4/19 is my favourite). In my view, an appropriate level of disclosure was conspicuously absent.
In light of the work drying up, the basis for making the below statements wholly escapes me. Why weren't we told of the issue in early 2019? Insufficiently material? How about: "Dear Market, we've been told that we met CBA requirements, but hey, you'll never guess what; CBA is using our service even less now...We're not sure why, but thought we'd drop you a bit of an FYI in case you felt like doing something material with it.". We should have been updated when the margin became uncommercial, totally non-existent, or more likely still, grossly negative. Instead ,we were fed marking hype around "new modules" and "AI".
FML. I go back and look back at the charts around early 2019. There was a window to get out 7 to 10 fold higher than our current valuation of approx zero (which predicament is thanks to management's spectacular torpedo kicked from 80 metres out towards the narrow posts of the CBA). Feels a bit like I was listening to the action over the radio: the commentators announce the ball leaving the boot, but forget to update us mugs as the footy sprays further and further wide of the post, till it is bloody out of bounds on the full...and then the commentators start talking again.
The trail of wealth destruction that has ensued here over the last few years is staggering. I am reticent to continue holding my breath, lest I find myself comatose.
All in my humble opinion (god knows I have paid for the privilege).
