BATM Advanced Communications (LSE:BVC) has completed the sale of its Romanian subsidiary, Laborator A.M.S 2000 SRL, which provides third-party analytical testing services. The asset has been acquired by a German-based laboratory group focused on agricultural, environmental, water, food and feed analysis, with the transaction delivering $1m in cash proceeds to BATM. The disposal forms part of the group’s broader strategy to exit activities considered non-core to its long-term technology focus.
This sale follows the divestment of the related AMS 2000 business at the end of 2025 and represents BATM’s fifth non-core exit within the past year. Management believes that removing these ancillary laboratory operations will meaningfully reduce operating costs and ongoing obligations, allowing greater management attention and capital to be directed toward its core businesses in networking, cybersecurity and diagnostics, where it sees stronger structural growth opportunities.
From an investment perspective, the outlook continues to be shaped by financial headwinds, including ongoing losses, which weigh on valuation. However, supportive technical trends and a series of recent strategic actions have helped improve sentiment, leaving the shares supported by positive momentum despite underlying earnings challenges.
