True enough Bronislav
but this is a temporary pull back
big things will happen here
selfishly I am hoping the share price stays about here for the duaration of the 60 day public comment period so that I can get back in

Wise move guys .only goes to show that for almost every spike up there will be a certain amount of profit taking.For something as logical as taking a profit sometimes it can be so hard to do.perhaps one of the seven deadlies is to blame .GREED .i,m sure we,ve all been there.

xcap.
A profit is a profit. I too sold around 20% of my holding at the beginning of last week....20.5p too.
;o)

[xcap] 13/1/2013 14:52

Lufcs, I had to exit with my small holding here (really happy to say I got 20.5p) to cover another position but keeping an eye and will be back in soon I hope

AquaBounty Technologies, Inc.
("AquaBounty" or "the Company")

Update on Proposed Tender Offer by Intrexon

Further to the announcement of 5 December 2012, AquaBounty Technologies, Inc. (AIM: ABTX), a biotechnology company focused on enhancing productivity in the aquaculture market, provides an update on the tender offer ("the Offer") by Intrexon Corporation ("Intrexon"), a privately held biotechnology company, to shareholders to purchase the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company not owned by Intrexon.

In accordance with the terms of AquaBounty's Certificate of Incorporation, the Offer was conditional on receiving acceptances in respect of shares that, together with Intrexon's holding of 47.56%, will result in Intrexon holding shares constituting more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of AquaBounty common stock. The acceptances combined with Intrexon's current holding did not meet this threshold. As such, the conditions of the Offer have not been met and Intrexon will not acquire the common shares tendered in the Offer. Those AquaBounty shareholders who accepted the Offer and tendered their shares will have returned to them their relevant share certificates and other documents of title in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

As stated in the Offer document, pursuant to the terms of the Relationship Agreement, Intrexon has the right, based on its current ownership, to appoint three of the six directors to AquaBounty's board of directors (the "Board"). When the nomination process has concluded, AquaBounty will announce to the market the Intrexon designees to the Board.

Thinking we should maybe get the results of the share offer this coming week.
Alejandro Weinstein should still have all his intact(savvy bio fella imo).

[lufc5] 04/1/2013 16:24

Those 2x 55k trades look decidedly like a rollover imo.

[lufc5] 04/1/2013 13:24

Well, the 1:00pm deadline to get those forms rushed in has passed...
Word is they were queuing round the block....not!!!
Eerily quiet here on the trading front today....
Next week or so could be interesting.
;o)

[xcap] 04/1/2013 08:11

yes good point(s), especially the last one:-)

[lufc5] 04/1/2013 08:00

All mms have moved up in unison.

xcap. I don't believe it to be quite that quick. Beginning of next week would be more likely imho. Be good if it was today....that would mean hardly any to count....lol.

[xcap] 04/1/2013 07:55

Lufcs
will we hear today via an rns the results of the Intrexon offer?

[lufc5] 04/1/2013 07:53

Looks like win's have opened up 0.5p on the bid.
;o)

[xcap] 03/1/2013 21:15

Again Lufcs excellent post, a really good read, many thanks

[xcap] 03/1/2013 19:51

speard 23p on the offer!
can't imagine mms have any stock left
tomorrow should be interesting :-))

[xcap] 03/1/2013 19:30

looks to me as if yesterday's sells have all been taken
today

if this is right tomorrow should mean more upward pressure on the sp?
i also think that if intrexon fail in their bid more investors will show confidence in buying

[xcap] 03/1/2013 19:26

Lufcs/goz the acceptance of Intrexon offer expires tomorrow. when will we learn the outcome?

[lufc5] 03/1/2013 17:41

goz. It had crossed my mind but, the ruling states that they must then offer any shareholder at least the most amount paid within the last 12 months. Who knows, we may get a holdings rns in the coming weeks, though my gut feeling is Intrexon will assess where they are(holdings wise) after the offer expires and see if they've managed any/many more at that now silly price they offered.

Maybe it is just that investors have put buy/limit orders in, and only when there's a sell, will it get filled or partially filled? WTFDIK??
;o)

[goz1986] 03/1/2013 17:11

Perhaps Interxon are buying them up........ All large sells are normally matched by goodish buys.

[lufc5] 03/1/2013 16:55

Today buys = 116k
sells = 50k
Edit....85k of more delayed buys just shown up.
;o)
