Mid-week Tip
CANDO
On its recent listing Ondo InsurTech (LSE: ONDO) raised £3.5m at 12p with 25p warrants, to roll-out its compelling home leak detection technology to Insurance companies. It is estimated that $17bn of water damage claims are made annually and LeakBot is proven proprietary technology that helps reduce these claims. The small easi-fit LeakBot device and software alerts the house owner /policyholder that there is a leak and can also call a plumber to fixit. The estimated market is 97 million home owners who could benefit from lower insurance premiums if they fitted the devise. This makes it a win-win, as insurance companies also benefit from reduced water damage claims. The LeakBot, is sold to insurance companies on a SaaS model at a recurring fee of around £2 per user per month. The insurance company may give the LeakBot to the house owner who will receive an early warning that a pipe is leaking that previously would have only be obvious after considerable water damage is done. The LeakBot is estimated to have a 5-year lifespan and to cost less than £15 to produce in volume. Ondo is targeting breakeven within 18 months as these contracts are closed. Ignoring the Homserve Loan , after cost we estimate there is around £2.5m cash to progress the business which should be sufficient for gaining commercial traction. At the current 11p it makes a speculative buy before the hoped for news starts to flow.
