Yertiz, if you take a look at Louis’s previous posts you’ll see it’s our old ‘friend’ Minerve! Lots of ROFLMAOs, guffaws and Brexit references give it away within 30 seconds of reading them! Plus all the old claims of ‘being successful’ blah blah. All of which we exposed as delusional all those years ago! From memory he was very bitter and twisted when we were making a killing on MRO circa 2016-2018, and then got very upset when the GKN takeover was happening. He also makes it clear here that he is not a multi-millionaire as he constantly claimed for years, because he seems to think that anyone who can max out their ISA is ‘privileged217; rather than just hard-working and reasonably well paid. I did explain to him years ago that salaries >£150k in the City are not only typical nowadays but often actually considered very low by those earning salaries with one or even two extra noughts on the end!

Mr Brandels, are you actually invested in GKN/MRO/DWL or are you here as an interested observer? Asking for a friend.....

Someone has touched a nerve. Business is business. If Melrose hadn't moved in with their hostile bid for GKN, it was highly likely another co would have done and probably with less scruples and foresight MRO has shown.As it stands, the slightly more streamlined, honed and credible business GKN/MRO now provides is a good thing, moving with the times rather than languishing in the 20th Century with the inefficiencies that brought. Dowlais is still a relatively new company still finding it's feet and position, but like all manufacturers and engineers, subject to the many woes of our economy post COVID, credit crunch and our ineffectively actioned Brexit. Does investing in Melrose mean we have no values? Really??

Louis, don’t agree with your characterisation of what’s happened with GKN - GKN was steadily on the decline and the trajectory it was on would have eventually led to bad outcomes for its employees and the areas in which the sites are based. MRO have turned that around, and in the long run that will result in better outcomes for the ex-GKN employees as well as shareholders on both sides. It’s a dog eat dog world and only the fittest survive. The people you’re concerned about are better off now than they would’ve been.

Very long term holder here. Previous ethos of MRO was to 'buy, improve then sell' usually with a great profit and returns to shareholders. I've lost track of how much Melrose has made for me over 23 years, but it must run into many thousands of £££'s. Just now wondering if there has been a major shift in the co's modus operandi and are now content in holding on to the remains of GKN? Dowlais seem to have hit the buffers, not making much headway, sadly.

For CGT, you should use the closing prices on the first day of trading following demerger and apportion the acquisition cost of your original MRO shares accordingly.

In this case it's quite simple, as there are the same number of MRO shares as DWL shares so the numbers are:-

MRO 413.45
DWL 117.20

Therefore:

413.45/530.65 (77.91%) of your original acquisition cost should be apportioned to your MRO shares

117.20/530.65 (22.09%) of your original acquisition cost should be apportioned to your DWL shares

At least, that's my understanding. Much the same as steeplejack's result but by the HMRC method.


Example
You originally bought 3,000 shares MRO shares at 110p per share (net of dealer costs and stamp duty)

The original acquisition cost is therefore £3300.

You now have 1,000 MRO shares with an acquisition cost of 3300*413.45/530.65 = £2571.16 or 257.126p per share.

Plus 1,000 DWL shares with an acquisition cost of 3300*117.20/530.65 = £728.84 or 72.884p per share.

(if you've done the sums correctly you should find you have the same % profit at close last night on your MRO and DWL shares, 62.2% in this case)

With the dismal MRO share price performance since the GKN acquisition the issue is less about what the Directors are worth in pay than whether they should keep their jobs at all. I'm sure the heavyweight non Execs will be considering this as a matter of urgency (not).

Would need to pay a minimum of £12-14 bn to get hold of RR, with debt on top,
Melrose not in that league, particularly with the MRO share price near current levels.

Possibility they may bid for Senior?, this is speculation on my part
and I hold both.

It may add to the usual MRO share price volatility.

That's incorrect, on two fronts - well dependent how you define lots of debt post disposal funds.

1.78 my highest recent sell prices, I've now added 80% of those back.
Missed the 1.81 plus yesterday morning unfortunately.

MRO share price fiercely volatile atm with the pandemic backdrop and their sector exposure.
Even pre pandemic it was usually a stock that got clobbered on risk off sentiment.
