AJM has deposit immediately adjoining Pilbara’s Pilgangoora Lithium-Tantalum Project to the south-west and the proximity of the two projects offers numerous opportunities to unlock logistical, operational and strategic synergies with the potential to deliver benefits to both companies.

Norwood Systems Ltd


NOR Details

Building sales pipeline: Norwood Systems Ltd (ASX: NOR) has launched Corona Cloud & Corona GTS services publically as a Beta. Both have a strong forward looking sales pipeline, as corporate clients could realize potential savings of up to 25-50% off phone bills. The planned expenditure budgets have been set for remainder of FY17 after the $3.5 million capital raising closing prior to 30th June 2016. Moreover, the World Phone downloads and revenue continue without the significant digital marketing spend, as NOR is focusing on Corona corporate and Europa carrier OTT platform sales in the coming quarters. The new product R&D, principally focused on World Wi-Fi and World Message, is continuing with the development on track with one of the principal developments of partnering with Devicescape on World Wi-Fi. We give a “Speculative Buy” recommendation on the stock at the current price of $0.019

Ziptel Ltd


ZIP Details

Loss recorded partly at the back of investment: Ziptel Ltd (ASX: ZIP) reported FY16 total revenue increase of 53% to $762,388 against the corresponding period last year. ZIP has reported the loss after tax of $14,009,805 as compared to FY2015 loss after tax of $5,687,639 due to investment in the Zipt platform and mass user acquisition campaigns for ZIP in key markets. Notably, a large component of the loss is attributable to non-cash share based payments of $8,479,391. However, the anticipated deployment of the SpeedTalk application, the first enterprise application of the ZIP’s low bandwidth communications technology, would have an impact on the group’s overall performance going forward. Additionally, Zipt was selected by Samsung as a Marquee App for Tizen Developers to deliver Tizen version of Zipt for August 2016 handset launch. Meanwhile, ZIP stock has fallen 64.04% in the last six months (as of September 06, 2016) placing them at attractive levels. Accordingly, we give a “Speculative Buy” recommendation on the stock at the current price of $0.15

Pulse Health Limited


PHG Details

Strong FY16 result: Pulse Health Limited (ASX: PHG) had earlier indicated that Ben Thynne and Andrew Savage, the principals of Evolution Healthcare (a private hospital operator in Australia and New Zealand) had acquired between 10 per cent and 11 per cent of the shares in PHG. In addition, PHG had terminated the acquisition of Waikiki Private Hospital and Westminster Day Surgery (WA Assets) as there was no earnings contribution from WA Assets which was expected to be included in Pulse Health’s FY16 according to the earnings guidance announced on 25th May 2016. WA assets were forecasted to deliver $1.6 million of the incremental FY17 EBITDA of $6.4 million from the acquisitions as per 7th December 2015 announcement. However, PHG acquired Boulcott Hospital in New Zealand which would be funded by the current cash reserves of the company. PHG has also commissioned Gold Coast Surgical Hospital wherein five out of a total six theatres have opened all 24 beds instead of the previous plan of gradual commissioning of theatres and ward beds.
 

Financial Result (Source: Company Reports)
 
The company’s revenue for FY16 is up 29% driven by established hospitals revenue. Underlying EBITDA and NPAT have grown 37% and 14% respectively. We give a “Speculative Buy” recommendation on the stock at the current price of $0.30
