Transfer of shares surely? Another 2million

[the big fella] 18/11/2016 15:14

Can only be a positive. Hopefully moving to safe hands. Given the last trading update we had, surely these will trade higher before too long.

17.5m shares now traded, mostly at 12.25p....

[makingmillions] 18/11/2016 12:37

Putting those trades and prices in time order makes it look like the two large trades were in fact buys?Anyone have thoughts.

[funkmasterp12] 18/11/2016 12:14

Same old INSE unfortunately.

[the big fella] 18/11/2016 12:07

Very frustrating, but I am a firm believer that value will out eventually.

[rivaldo] 18/11/2016 12:04

Wow - a 6.5m and a 6m trade both gone through at 12.25p.

Ending of an overhang? I bleedin' well hope so - this share is both extremely cheap and extremely frustrating.

Well done Big Fella, I would love to add also, but alas no funds at the moment.

[the big fella] 10/11/2016 14:06

I assume my 250k will appear later.
Edit - reported now.

[the big fella] 10/11/2016 13:16

I have just done my bit for the cause having just re-read the August results. I have doubled my position in my ISA.

[the big fella] 10/11/2016 13:02

Indeed. Over a million shares have been sold over the last few trading days. They are almost at the bottom of their recent trading range so anyone looking to buy a decent size stack, now is your chance.

[rivaldo] 09/11/2016 12:38

If the trading update in January is as good as the H1 outlook suggests, I doubt there'll be much of a problem in achieving new highs.

[the big fella] 08/11/2016 17:24

It does, but if they keep placing shares at c 13p the share price is going nowhere. It does test your patience.

[rivaldo] 04/11/2016 12:24

Another RNS - good to see the mighty Miton increasing their holding to above 10%. Although they've bought 5m in the placing per this RNS, they actually only had 41.9m shares at 14th August, so they'd already bought another 2m before this placing:



The list of shareholders reads like a Who's Who now - Slater, Miton, Giles Hargreave, Livingbridge etc:

[wanttowin] 03/11/2016 15:40

Nice bit of 'dipping' that miti 1000, more than my total holding!

[1gw] 03/11/2016 15:19

BGF sounds like a good shareholder to have.

[miti 1000] 03/11/2016 12:48

Ok, dipped my toe in with 200k

[rivaldo] 03/11/2016 10:43

RNS - the Business Growth Fund PLC took £2m of shares in the placing, i.e just over 3%:

[1gw] 28/10/2016 13:28

Well, I suppose it would be reasonable to hope that some private investors and maybe some other institutions would see how happy the chosen institutions apparently are to take shares at this price and would want to follow them in even if it meant paying a bit more.

Those are 2 large sales to put into the market given the normal trading volumes in INSE: 34m shares in January and 38m shares today.

[rivaldo] 28/10/2016 09:28

Good news that institutional investors are happy to take £5m of shares between them at 13.25p.

The good news story here will continue if the Thorntons wish to retain their reputation and sell further blocks of shares in the long term.

The January update should therefore hopefully confirm the outlook from the interims:

"The momentum built in the last two years continues unabated with the second half of the year starting strongly. Since 30 June 2016, a major retail focussed corporate customer of STC, having engaged with Inspired's Risk Managed Team, has entered into a contract that is now the largest signed by the Group to date. We look forward to delivering another set of strong results for the year ended 31 December 2016. With the continued growth in the Corporate Order Book the Board is confident that the Group is well positioned for the medium term."

[1gw] 28/10/2016 08:31

They seem to have set 13.25p as their exit price. Same price when they offloaded in January.

On the plus side though, the Thorntons are now down to 16% equity between them, so assuming they want to retain a meaningful ongoing interest in the business I would have thought there is a limit to how much more they would be prepared to let go. And at least there is a 12-month lock-in now.

Of course if they don't intend to retain a meaningful ongoing interest that might be more worrying...

[trier1] 28/10/2016 08:25

Well we now know why they fell back. It the are going to sell more in 12 months it is going to be very difficult for the shares to rise much as the institutions can just wait to buy

[rivaldo] 06/10/2016 15:57

Yep, good to see a buy at 14.8p just now. Hopefully INSE's breakout is approaching....

[wanttowin] 06/10/2016 13:44

Third time in a month we are testing 15p, I don't think it would take much buying to push this through.
