Guillemot Corp. $GUI has published its Q2 revenue figures. Most importantly, the completely unexpected upward revision of the revenue forecast from €110m to €120m for 2025 stands out. It means H2 will be very very strong and operating leverage will work again here. 1/X ->

Out of all the microcap defense plays in EU only a select few stand out by natural order and will likely play out very well in the coming years - but nothing really compares to Ceotronics $CEK.DE - think the R/R is simply on the extreme side. 1/X ->

It is really sehr schön case with Ceotronics on multiple levels, which is extremely rare in my experience to come by. Let's briefly go through some points of interest -> 1/X

Wallix $ALLIX posted extremely strong results for H1 2025 (in terms of revenue, but also the revenue split). It's very impressive that despite SaaS revenues growing by +45.7% y/y, license revenues also increased by +11.7% y/y in H1 2025. This mix significantly exceeds expectations. -> 1/X

Very interesting current data from Gartner Peer Insights regarding PAM products. The ranking is used often by IT specialist and product buyers. Now Wallix $ALLIX has earned a rating of 4.5, which is higher than the 4.4 rating of the American market leader CyberArk $CYBR. Lets go it through ->

Fantastic interview piece on Wallix ($ALLIX) probably the best one ever made over the years so far. Link below. CEO is now saying in the interview they are "regularly approached" (french to english translation) but wants the right valuation. Let's go through this dimension of the case 1/X ->

The case is Serviceware $SJJ (Germany) an undiscovered small-cap software company specialized in Enterprise Service Management (main competitor: ServiceNow, $NOW) and IT Financial Management (main competitor: Apptio, acquired by IBM at 11x Sales in 2023). Let's take a deeper look into it 1/X ->

Sehr Schön with Ceotronics ($CEK.DE) - Finserve Global Security Fund (AUM c. 375M EUR) managed by smart Swedish defense specialist investor is most likely one of the first funds that has discovered Ceotronics so far? Clearly, this is an interesting move for the case -> 1/X

Got good news on the case front - a new profitable European SaaS smallcap will appear on this profile in the coming days. I'm just finishing the research. Investors who follow examples like Wallix $ALLIX, Esker, Sidetrade $ALBR, Nemetschek $NEM or even SAP $SAP stay tuned in for this one 1/x ->

Sehr Schön with Ceotronics $CEK - let's review the fresh news from the only direct high-quality comparable peer to Ceotronics $CEK.DE Invisio $IVSO announcing 145M SEK (c. 13M EUR) deal to be shipped in 2025 it seems to have managed to move the stock 1.6BN EUR (vs Ceotronics 110M) by c. 3%. 1/X ->

Well mixed signals on very initial feedback on FBC Firebreak, but at core it seems like a fun game to play to me and most likely as previous $REMEDY titles interest will build over time (see review pic). But no the studio is not materially dependent on this title at all good or bad 1/x->
