To be honest, I've tried to answer the question "Why now?"
That is, "Why is the market rapidly realising the potential of this company?"
As I've been trying to search for a reason, in conjuction with all the good press release and stellar growth results, I believe Nearmap's been also doing a GREAT job at demonstrating their upcoming Obliques & 3D products in their "Focus Roadshows" across Australia.
These Roadshow schedules are:
- 27th Feb 2018 in Adelaide
- 2nd March in Perth
- 6th March in Brisbane
- 14th March in Melbourne
- 21st March in Sydney
- 23rd March in Canberra
With the Adelaide, Perth, and Brisbane roadshows now complete, I believe a lot of capabilities have been shown in these sessions (& I'm keen to hear what people think firsthand if you've attended these) and this has in turn triggered a LOT of interest in both Nearmap's product uptake, their company profile, and of course their stock price.
