Cybit the best telematics play (CYH)     

Still Waiting - 21 Sep 2003 22:33

The chart for this stock says it all.

The company is quickly becoming a real gem in the telematics field, over the last month the co. has announced re-seller contracts which will bring in min. 2m or >30% of last years T/O alone.

The company is already experiencing massive organic growth so the co. should be profitable now following last years 500k loss.

The co. has approx. 6m cash and is in one of the hottest growth areas at the moment.

With a market cap. of 25m this will be re-rated x2/3 minimum within the next 6-12 months IMHO.

MM buys went through on Friday with T/O continuing to build, one to put on your monitor...

Seems the only thing not going right here is the share price!!!!!!!!! ???

Got to be optimistic it WILL come (I hope) x/f

:)

optomistic - 31 Jul 2004 09:09 - 2222 of 3104

Douggie, watching the seemingly enless falling away of the share price I would view the appointment of Nigel Hammersley as a very positive step for CYH. Here is a man of obvious ability in the very difficult world of 'selling'.
I would not expect immediate results but in my opinion they will come. CYH is a share I will be watching very closely from now on. I hope that for all of you presently holding the stock my opinions are to be vindicated.
Good luck

some recent developments (technology)

New Open Interface Available from Cybit
M2 Communications
Thursday, July 29, 2004


British telematics service provider Cybit has announced a new Open Applications Programming Interface (API) for its web-based Fleetstar-Online telematics system.

The new OpenAPI interface allows almost any third party system to directly access Cybit telematics information, including GPS positioning data. Fleetstar-Online's database already handles all the vehicle and asset tracking data for hundreds of commercial fleets and thousands of vehicles. By integrating with Fleetstar-Online, Cybit customers will be able to compare information stored in their databases with telematics-derived data.

Cybit's OpenAPI interface is based on XML, allowing calls from any operating environment with a range of connection options, while a specialist OpenAPI developer pack provides details of the SOAP/XML schema and details of raw data formats, says Cybit.

No pricing details were provided.

BANKONE - 02 Aug 2004 08:24 - 2226 of 3104

Did someone say there was An AGM this Tuesday?

That article referred to in 2223 is now shown below.

Cybit extends telematics functionality with comprehensive OpenAPI connectivity
New open interface enables full integration of core telematics data with existing enterprise applications
Supports partners looking to bring new telematics-enabled applications to market more quickly
Cybit, the UKs leading online telematics service provider, has made it easier for organisations to integrate core telematics data into their existing enterprise solutions by announcing a new Open Applications Programming Interface (API) for its web-based Fleetstar-Online telematics system. Cybits OpenAPI interface provides a standard way for almost any third party system to connect easily, cost-effectively and securely to Fleetstar-Online, avoiding the complex and expensive integration issues normally associated with linking to corporate databases and enterprise environments.

Cybit's new OpenAPI interface capability provides direct access to core Cybit telematics information including GPS positioning data held in extensive data sets. This information is stored in Fleetstar-Online's clustered SQL Server 2000 database that already handles all the vehicle and asset tracking data for hundreds of commercial fleets and thousands of vehicles. Integrating with Fleetstar-Online enables Cybit customers, for example, to directly compare volume telematics-derived data with information held within their enterprise and database systems. This might include comparing actual activity derived from the Fleetstar-Online platform with planning tool derived data, matching driver hours worked with payroll systems, or producing more comprehensive analysis of data for strategic planning purposes.

"Many organisations are increasingly recognising the value of the business information thats locked within their telematics data. With our new OpenAPI interface, we're effectively unlocking this information and giving organisations the flexibility they need to develop an entirely new generation of leading-edge telematics-enabled asset management solutions. There are clearly significant commercial opportunities here," commented Cybit's CEO, Richard Horsman.

"We're already working with major organisations such as Norwich Union, Lex Vehicle Leasing and brs Truck Rental to provide them with the core telematics technology they need to add incremental value and innovation to their existing applications and solutions," he continued. "With Cybit OpenAPI, businesses can now introduce entirely new products and services based on our raw telematics data feeds."

Customers can connect to the Fleetstar-Online system and retrieve a range of raw data extracts, as well as formatted, live feeds and inbound data. Typical information could include fleet and vehicle details, location information, speed and heading details, and data relationships. Volume data requests are then made to the Cybit API Server which processes and manages all communications.

Cybit's OpenAPI interface is based on XML, allowing calls from any operating environment. A specialist OpenAPI developer pack provides details of the SOAP/XML schema and details of raw data formats, while a range of connection options are available, including direct connection to Cybit's servers using SOAP/XML and the ability to link using the Fleetstar ActiveX control.

The company also said it has a number of new partnerships that are close to

Legins - 03 Aug 2004 00:58 - 2237 of 3104

Are we begining to see a recovery of the share price?

The value of many similar software/technology companies like TAD, CWV, CHR, CRX and many other AIM listed shares, most have fallen in excess of 50 - 70% since Jan04 and so has the index also fallen. Shorely it must be now due for the Bears to hibernate and that MM's will begin to recognise the value of retail & institutional investment into these companies and the market acceptances of their products and services or will we have to wait for improved interim or final results to stop the share prices from falling any further.

skids - 03 Aug 2004 07:36 - 2238 of 3104

Looks as though they have a major agreement with NU, an existing customer anyway, but perhaps this agreement is much bigger than anything we have seen before. I'm sure they will release some news giving much more detail soon.
