Absolutely agree with your framing, this really is one of those "heads I win, tails I still win" setups.

Even with bid uncertainty, ALPH is in a unique position: a proven growth business, strong recurring revenues, global expansion potential, and sitting on over 250m GBP in cash. That kind of balance sheet strength means it's not dependent on a takeover to create value, it's already doing that organically.

Especially with payments and currency industry veteran Clive Kahn at the helm. In the last trading update, Alpha noted they're starting to win mega deals - bringing on large multinational clients - which is a clear indicator that the business is scaling commercially and operationally.

Add to that the collapse of AGFX, which mismanaged its risk exposure and had to be sold for pennies. That wipes out a key competitor and puts Alpha in pole position to absorb dislocated clients who now want financial strength and stability. Alpha offers both - along with a scalable platform.

Now with geopolitical tensions escalating in the Middle East, crude oil is already up to $76, and further escalation could push it toward $80-100. That has knock-on effects: higher oil price? higher inflation ? higher interest rates for longer. Unlike most growth stocks, ALPH benefits directly from this environment through increased returns on client cash balances.

Meanwhile, institutions continue to buy, even near or above the 31 GBP level. That's not trading noise - that's conviction. And with the PUSU deadline now extended to July 7, the board clearly sees merit in continued discussions with Corpay. Even if a firm offer doesn't materialise, Alpha is well-positioned to rerate based on fundamentals alone.

Bottom line: ALPH isn't priced like a company nearing the end of a growth story - quite the opposite. It's growing, it's well-capitalised, and it has multiple levers to unlock value, with or without a takeover.

With ALPH at the heart of ongoing takeover speculation, I bet investors here face a classic dilemma: de-risk now or stay fully exposed to the potential upside. At the current price, that choice is even more pronounced. Selling half is the textbook move right... it protects capital while keeping skin in the game. But given ALPH’s valuation and growth trajectory, any short-term elevator down could be followed by an overdrive bounce straight back up within days to resume its strong trend.

We can speak openly because institutions control the share price here. While I have not sold I am preparing cash and liquid assets to put into here on a failed bid as both would a win win situation.

Given the board's rejection of the initial proposal, Corpay can consider submitting a revised offer before the May 30 deadline. The accumulation of significant stakes by institutional investors suggests anticipation of further developments, which could impact Alpha's share price and valuation?

I have been adding some funds that I sold back into ALPH as May 30 deadline approaches. This is normally gambling behaviour. Given its solid financials and current valuation being growth at a reasonable price (GARP) with NTI I think this is still a cracking buy. I really do think Corpay Inc will bid again but equally don't matter if they don't and happy to hang on to these as any fall from a failed bid should be bought up. I certainly have dry powder to do so.

I just don’t see the culture at ALPH as one that gets taken out. It’s more about being the acquirer, not the acquired. That said, these bids are definitely good for our share price on the way to what I too is fairer value around £40 which seems crazy having only invested here 14 month ago.

Corpay Inc. confirms that it has been in discussions with Alpha in relation to a possible cash offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Alpha.

RNS timed at 16:53 but shares started moving at 15:30 and shot up at 16:00. Shares closed at 2810p up 65p 2.37%, after hitting a high at 2920p.

Chinese exporters are beginning to quote prices, and request settlement, in Euro's rather than Dollars. Just roomers but may explain the strong share price.

Alpha Group International plc, with a market capitalisation of approximately £1 billion, offers foreign exchange risk management and alternative banking solutions across the United Kingdom, Europe, Canada, and other international markets.

Revenue streams primarily come from its Alpha Pay segment (£72.30 million) and Institutional segment (£67.47 million), along with additional contributions from Corporate Toronto, Corporate Amsterdam, and Corporate London (excluding Amsterdam).

Alpha Group International has achieved an impressive earnings growth of 46.3% over the past year, significantly outpacing the Capital Markets industry's growth rate of 12.5%. This remarkable performance is further supported by the company's debt-free status, enhancing its appeal in terms of financial stability.

With NTI the company's price-to-earnings ratio stands at a favourable 10.6x, compared to the UK market's average of 16x, indicating good relative value. Moreover, Alpha benefits from high-quality non-cash earnings and positive free cash flow, which are likely to sustain its robust financial health and drive future growth.

Apologies this is a low evidence based, low brow, short video link from me as to what is happening to the ALPH share price amongst the institutions (tiny PI volume). Similar happened this time last year. Note pre-fix the number 2 to the values shown here to get ALPH's share price. Enjoy:

I think it's due to FTSE250 as the decrease in ALPH share price EOD is similar to what it was prior to RNS.

How have the buybacks been a headwind? They announced them when shares were trading at £14.80!

Also, just to note that the 2 most recent share scheme from 2022 have the below conditions;

"The gain that an F shareholder could receive is capped through placing a ceiling on the maximum market capitalisation of Alpha of £1,867m. The result of doing so is that the F Shares will be entitled to a pro rata share of the gain in market capitalisation of Alpha between £740m and the market capitalisation ceiling of £1,867m."

"The rate of conversion that the G and H Shares will be regarded as worth, is a pro rata share of the market capitalisation gain of Alpha above a hurdle price of £740m. The gain that a shareholder could receive is capped through placing a ceiling on the maximum market capitalisation of Alpha of £1,867m. The result of doing so is that the G and H Shares will be entitled to a pro rata share of the gain in market capitalisation of Alpha between £740m and the market capitalisation ceiling of £1,867m."

So they don't benefit at all unless the share price is above around £17.20, capped at £43.40. So they is a clear desire to get the share price significantly above current levels
