Posted at 01/5/2009 20:01 by life of crime Well, not surprisingly it looks as though Batman may slip. I think that is a good thing, as Summer is not an ideal time to release a blockbuster, being such a slow time for sales generally. However, as a new SQEX investor I am less pleased with the idea of an Xmas launch. Have they learned nothing from TRU? If this important title is to be delayed and won't be ready by October, they should slip it to March or April next year, even if its ready by Nov or Dec. The launch of an important new IP needs all the help it can get, not be saddled by competition from the Xmas scrum. One of the benefits of Square's takeover was that Eidos would no longer be forced into unsuitable release dates because of cashflow problems. Hopefully this is just press speculation. There is also some new footage from the game itself: Anyway, this is my last post on this BB so good luck to all the knowledgable contributors to the board, it was interesting to exchange various points of view. Definitely the end of an era for me, although at least my new investments are faring better than Eidos did! |
Posted at 27/2/2009 10:59 by dealy DarrenI agree. If the company is genuinely worth more then a counter offer will come in. No board can dis-recomend an offer right now that offers a substantial premium to the current share price. Investors are not obliged to accept any offer. Personally I think there would be other offers if the market was not in its worst single state in history. |
Posted at 14/2/2009 09:47 by togglebrush This looks like the first HEAVY weight poker session, in the proverbial 'smoke filled room', of the year. The BoD are just the cloakroom attendants at this one as they own diddly squat of the equity. But the BoD have a walk on role with Interims on 26th.The Jane C faction, with memories of last year still in mind, have their own agenda and a fair sized vote. Robert T saw much of his equity disappear in October but still carries a heavy vote. The overhang from the backing to his CFDs probably disappeared with the 17 million trades on Thursday. That overhang destroyed the share price and made the % increases for the Take Over Bid look wonderful. Original Institution investors are suffering heavy losses. The take over price is still below rights issue in May 2008. Recent speculators have made a nice recent profit but will they risk it for more (Greed). There are currently two potential protagonists will they become foes or friends??? The permutation and combinations of possible deals is wide and if third parties get involved even more complex. PI's are just distant on lookers at this game. The result may surprise everyone! |
Posted at 11/2/2009 17:09 by kooba totally agree but the price action demonstrated in the ta will undoubtedly be governed by the markets risk /reward view of a deal progressing...so since eid/seg/eid has been one of the leakiest ships in the market [not just with cash!!!] for info then worth looking at the action for signals of knowledgable investors!whats your current view of how the release line up is shaping up darrens?? |
Posted at 17/1/2009 09:37 by dealy Time Warner will call the shots here:a) they have a virtual blocking stake - not quite complete blocking stake but pretty close, making it impossible for a buyer to make an offer mandatory unless TW agree b) they have a distribution agreement for the US which gives them great leverage in negotiations c) as a trade investor they will be concerned about who gets to own Eidos if it isn't them They recently removed their representative from the board. They are in the best position to force through a takeover although they will most likely have to pay 35p. |
Posted at 14/1/2009 10:54 by dealy The administrators in the UK are going to be busy if that's the case. Every company seems to be heading that way if you believe the negativity or you believe always in the worst case scenario actually transpiring.Investors in North America right now are currently convinced that Nortel is about to go bust. That company has $10 billion of revenue and is the biggest telecoms equipment provider in North America and third biggest globally. They only have net debt of $1.7 billion. That's 6 weeks of sales. We really are on the verge of talking hundreds of companies into bankruptcy. |
Posted at 14/1/2009 09:14 by the crypt dealy - its the guys runnng the company - the investors don't get any comfort from them, no confidence in them - rightly so. |
Posted at 13/1/2009 16:24 by a44 Here you go The Crypt (post 498)investor@sci.co.uk or Anyone know when TW will get their $10+ Billion dividend, I know it is due in 1st quarter of this year? |
Posted at 09/1/2009 18:25 by life of crime Well, here we go again. It looks like the risk of releasing TR at Xmas has really backfired. I agree with Darren that the timing was a bad mistake, so that has to be taken into consideration. TR is a fading rather than a dead brand and there is still the PS2 version to come. I think it may eventually clock up 2M sales, which is very disappointing rather than a disaster. If they had the common sense to release in late Sep or early Oct it may have achieved 2.5M.TR needs a major revamp because more of the same is clearly not going to cut it. Trying to see the positive, turnover of £160-£180M shows there is still value in the business, but I fear that another change of management may be required. They also have a strong line up of proven IP this year in the form of JC, BS and CM. Batman looks like the ace in the pack and it is now imperative to get this out on time within this FY, which could well salvage things. The line up should hopefully persuade the banks to play ball and avoid a fire sale or break up. It is not in the shareholders interests to sell at current values. We just have to hope they can plod through the recession and emerge in one piece in better times. Eidos does seem to have nine lives and have emerged from the brink before, so I hope they can do it again. With luck the institutional investors will demand a change at the top because the CEO has made a major mistake with their biggest asset. If they can get to June intact, things may look better for the future, but we will simply have to wait and see. PS. I honestly think they should take you on as an advisor Darren, as you speak a lot more sense than any of the managers. Do you think a change of CEO would help? I still think they should have promoted the head of their US operations, Bill Gardner (if he is still there) as he was the only manager who talked a lot of sense and seemed to have a good grasp of the video game business. If he has left, he should be re-hired to replace Rogers who seems to have been promoted too early in his career. |
