I have a total of 25 shares Cost me £200 A large investment that has clearly gone places! Why did I do it?

[pregonda] 07/10/2009 08:39

company reorganising its articles and also has a website at last. Could they be getting their house in order ahead of a deal?

Pension fund deficit now £1.4m, and £1.2m further liability on Preference shares & accrued dividiends - the latter shown in the B/S at zero because the company takes the view that it has no prospect of ever paying them off. But they remain a liability. So the cash position - which I see has been quoted before also deducting £651,000 of other (cash) liabilities isn't actually as favourable as it might be represnted. Unless the company can sort out botht e Pref shares and the Pension Fund, there's nothing there.

PE 2, pension fund sorted and now manageable.

Market Cap £1m

Cash £2.5m

NAV per share 208p v share price of 85p.

Perfect for a reverse.

How many prefs do you hold and what do you want for them?

[nuney123] 18/4/2008 15:02

What about the pref shareholders, ( my self included), poor fool , not even able to sell/ get a quote If the pension problem isnt solved soon its all up for the company.

[nuney123] 18/4/2008 14:48

What aboutthe pref shares in issue, two types, i have the misfortune ? of holding a few. I think the directors may hold some . No divs paid for years , and unsaleable/no quote.

[broadsword2] 03/4/2008 13:55

with 1.3m shares out, there aren't too many shareholders to worry about
all v suspect
one SSQ3 MM 50 / 65

[sportbilly1976] 03/4/2008 12:11

well with only 1,310,000 shares in issue and just 2 MM's operating.....I'm sure that it would have been very hard to get any quantity...!!

[seatrader] 03/4/2008 12:08

Up 200% althogh no news released, anyone know why?

[lord santafe] 03/4/2008 11:47

By the time you buy and sell from yesterday price, you will be left with doubling your money. Still good, but not as good as it looks.

I hope you managed to get some double6. Pitty my mum can not since she is away on holiday till Sunday.

[chesty1] 03/4/2008 08:46

mr_chaps the same thing happened to ARA last week...

It was trading at 9p the next morning it opened at 4.5p & then closed at 10p & then they announced bids & currently sits at 16p....

Its a crooked market out there but you can make a packet if you get into em at the right price which most don't myself included.

Be lucky to all

[regandjess] 03/4/2008 08:41

Surely they're going to have to put out an RNS to keep shareholders up to date with whats happening. If not this looks like a case of insider trading if news comes out a few days after a rise like this.

[regandjess] 03/4/2008 08:37

Not been a busy board here over the years has it ?..

[mr_chaps] 03/4/2008 08:33

I was going for a few this morning at under 25p Chesty, but was a bit late on my order for this illiquid stock!
Good luck all.

[chesty1] 03/4/2008 07:53

Not in just watching the action.

[barn owl] 03/4/2008 07:51
