Its existing licencees, AVX and Murata, continue to perform strongly. AVX has paid ahead of schedule GBP 750,000 of licence fees due to CAP-XX under existing agreements, whilst the royalty payments from Murata continue to increase, with the last quarterly royalty payment being the highest ever, up by over 50% compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company continues to develop and expand its licencing and new business opportunities. \n \nThe Board noted in the interim statement on 20 March 2017 that they expected to finalise additional licence and sales opportunities by the 30th June 2017. Whilst the Board remains very confident that new licence deals and sales opportunities will be realised in the next few months, it now believes that certain of these licence opportunities may not be completed prior to the end of the current financial year. \n \nAs a result of these delays, the Board now expects that revenues for the year ending 30 June 2017 will be A$4.11 million that, as a consequence, the EBITDA loss generated by Company for the year ending 30 June 2017 will be A$1.15 million.\nThe Company has adequate cash resources to meet its foreseeable needs and the Board is increasingly confident of a successful conversion of the growing pipeline of high value enquiries received for licensing and manufactured products.\n \nFor further information cont...
