Lovely dip this afternoon for anyone wishing to add

[bigglesbingham] 29/7/2021 15:09

Ha ha hardly.

[donald pond] 29/7/2021 14:08

Thanks boss, I will do as you say.

Needs to be an experienced NED Chairman, not simply an NED

[soulsauce] 29/7/2021 09:00

So you are suggesting a NED to join with shareholders interests at heart Kirbs?

[kirbs4] 29/7/2021 08:57

I think the point Soul is they can't resolve it themselves, they simply aren't capable. They probably think they've ticked the box with YJ, and PG also, but those aren't doing the job. The problem with outsourcing the responsibility is you will often just get what you ask for, which means you need to know what to ask for :).

Still no dividend dates! Waiting patiently. Michael I believe is away till 3rd August, so I doubt we will get anything before then.

[donald pond] 29/7/2021 08:51

Biggles, I've sent you a PM, do respond if you get the chance

[soulsauce] 29/7/2021 08:47

It still doesn't answer 8rads question of why they are not listening :-/

[konil] 29/7/2021 08:43

bb and kirbs, nail on head posts by both.

sea of blue for many pm miners today with overnight gains in pms, and a near term 7% forthcoming payout by aau, yet aau stuck in neutral. d'oh!

[bigglesbingham] 29/7/2021 05:49

Excellently put kirbs.

[bigglesbingham] 29/7/2021 05:49

Brad please see kirbs comment he's got it in one .

[kirbs4] 28/7/2021 22:34

It is common in business, some if not most of the best thought leaders struggle to get their point across. It is rare that someone is natural at being both the oracle and the salesman. To a far lesser extent I know through experience, I'm an industry SME but I can't sell for toffee because I know too much.This is where a company has to either build around you, or partner with someone who can communicate. At the moment and since I've been invested, AAU still doesn't have this in place. I've said it for years on here. Imo the Sp could and maybe should be 7/8p now and would be were we to have sufficient focus on managing comms.

[8rad] 28/7/2021 19:17

BB ...you have told them this story for many a month now but they still do not get the picture. Why?

[bigglesbingham] 28/7/2021 18:29

Let me elaborate they know what's going on with the company and have been adding on that basis. The not empathise with shareholders was meant to describe the fact that they don't seem to understand how the common shareholder thinks ie we need full explanations and full information regarding strategy and if the private investor doesn't get that full info they draw wrong conclusions get disgruntled and move on. That is what the Board don't seem to appreciate. They may well have known that the divi is best to be paid in three tranches and sound business decisions back that. But they don't seem to understand that if external shareholders are not given full info then dropping that info at last minute makes a positive rns and negative one. The PR company isnt savey enough to understand that either. The above is my only real detractor from what is an excellent company.

[lottsgold] 28/7/2021 12:54

Already been making some notes, I'll get it updated ASAP now we have a little more meat on the bone!

[thanksamillion] 28/7/2021 08:47

Message for Lottsgold our BB patron.

Could you update the text at the top of the page with details of Kosovo etc. - in your own time, no rush.

Thanks in advance.

Not sure it was wise to sell a lot of your Palm kaos 🤔

[kaos3] 28/7/2021 07:20

whatever I am thinking and writing - this is on many aspects the time to be adding imho - first time for myself after 2 years since I appeared here - and I am adding quite some for my modest means - sold off a lot of PALM and am back here

what I do wonder is that no one talks about a seller after KS said he is not aware of one. it really puzzles myself. why - because if there is no seller (which due to no TR1 or RNS it looks so) - there could be a very clever operator working AAU. which is a compliment to the AAU stock imho

[xow98] 28/7/2021 07:03

The timeline for people being paid an annual income (125k to 162k) from the company they are invested in with 28 million options is different to those of external shareholders.

[zangdook] 28/7/2021 06:48

"The BoD are two of the major shareholders" "they don’t empathise with shareholders"

Slight contradiction?

[bigglesbingham] 27/7/2021 19:49

Perhaps masterg1 could shed light as they seem to be pretty clued up with accountancy. ???

[jaf1948] 27/7/2021 19:43

I don't want to over-egg it and I happily concede that Ariana is a good prospect which is why I plan to stay invested.

However, I do not believe for one minute that the BoD have not known for months about the tax advantages so why did they not tell shareholders about it a bit earlier ? Where was the business reason for keeping it quiet until the last moment ? It is little things like that which sow the seeds of discontent. Biggles used a good phrase 'they don’t empathise with shareholders' - I can't improve on that.

[8rad] 27/7/2021 19:09

Right. so Ariana lets be explicit about exactly what is the tax advantages for the company and its shareholders for tranches...I know good Co Accountants.
