IN BRIEF: Thruvision mulls strategic options amid order uncertainty
Thruvision Group PLC - Abingdon, England-based walkthrough people-screening technology - Decides to conduct a formal strategic review, including the launch of a formal sales process.

Believes further resources are required to advance the adoption of the group's technology by customers and operate at greater scale. Other options being considered include seeking a strategic partner to support its growth; raising additional equity capital; and licensing its technology and intellectual property to a third party.

Adds however that it "does not have confirmation from these potential customers as to when purchase orders...will be entered into, if at all". If the orders do not materialise, it expects its cash resources to last roughly until the end of May. Read More
