    Well, the market certainly liked the quarterly! Looks like just like last July most punters only judge based on the operating cash flow figure for one quarter which seems a bit foolish.

    +The cash flow is positive, plenty of cash so no CR risk and less chance of needing to use the extra finance facility.
    +Profitable subsidiary accounts (profit is all that matters in this game IMO and I couldn't care less about the short-term cash movements).
    +Synergies and cost savings with Alltype integration now boosting the financials.
    +Very strong tendering activity which should be rewarded in the coming months with contract wins.
    -The receipts from customers this quarter confirms a negative trend despite the Alltype acquisition ($14M, $15.4M, $12M and now $12.2M) which is concerning and doesn't exactly reflect a growing business.
    -No forward order book figure so assume it to be very weak given only one small $2 million contract has been announced all year.
    -The cash flow has been artificially boosted significantly this quarter by the share issues in lieu of salary.
    -The unmarketable parcel sale process (closing this week) will likely see many millions (5-10 million perhaps) of shares dumped on market at some point in early August. I have seen this happen on a few other stocks and it's certainly not pretty in the short-term!

    I think the market got ahead of itself today so given the share price pumped +100% since the March lows and the sector peers are weak I took the opportunity to reduce my holding for the time being. The extent of contract wins (or lack of) in the coming months is crucial for this business IMO.
