Today's 30,000 share seller is a long-term holding throwing in the towel after yet another disappointment from AUCT in the recent interim results, after previously raising hopes of a deal.
That is not the faults of TOPS.

Also note that the spiel about 'focussing on delivering a near term transaction' is identical to the spiel in the interim results three years previously! -

" ... Within the Chairman's Statement accompanying the full year accounts ending 31 December 2018, I referred to a potential transaction that was under due diligence at that time. Unfortunately, I am disappointed to report that this transaction could not be concluded principally due to disagreement over the valuation as well as over some other key terms.
The harsh reality is that in a competitive marketplace either the quality of opportunities being introduced or the lack finance attached to deals has led to a number of failed processes which has been very frustrating and disappointing for management and shareholders alike.
However, the Board continues to actively evaluate a number a potential transactions across a variety of different sectors. At this time no formal agreement has been entered into by the Company however the Board remains focused on delivering a transaction that brings both value and growth potential to the Shareholders of Auctus Growth in the near term. ..."

"Auctus Growth plc ("Auctus" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of its successful placing of 2,440,000 Ordinary Shares (the "Placing") to a list of professional investors and institutions and the initial public offering of its entire share capital, being 2,440,000 Ordinary Shares.
Auctus has raised gross proceeds of GBP1,220,000.
Auctus has been formed to undertake an acquisition of a target company or business. The Company's efforts in identifying a prospective target company or business will not be limited to a particular sector or geographic region. However, the Company expects to draw on the extensive experience of the Company's founders and its board in sourcing and successfully executing such transactions. The Company is targeting a significant deal; accordingly a listing on the Official List of the FCA, as opposed to a junior market, matches the future ambitions of the Company in terms of scale, quality and appreciation in shareholder value.
It is expected that admission to a Standard Listing on the Official List of the FCA will become effective and unconditional dealings in the Ordinary Shares on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities will commence at 8.00 a.m. today under the ticker symbol "AUCT". ..."

LG,

A belated thank you for your AGM report.

Main-listed shells can't be delisted for not RTOing, unlike on AIM, but that lack of urgency can be a double-edge sword.

Friday's interim report from AUCT gives no indication that a deal is close, or even that they are confident of achieving one.

It is possible to be TOO choosy.

It's been three years ... if 'nothing changes', who's to say that another three years won't go by with still no deal?

Look at RGP (Ross Group) for example ... where 'RGP mortis' might be setting in after a seven year wait:

" ... The Board takes satisfaction in its rigorous control of overheads and preservation of the Group's Main Board Premium Listed status.

... During the year we have continued our work to explore a variety of strategic opportunities; primarily involving potential mergers, acquisitions and business alliances. We have, over the last five years looked at such opportunities in a variety of business sectors: ranging from consumer electronics, mining, mineral resources, green energy, internet service providers, to specialist supply chain management services. This is still the case, although up to now there has been no conclusive material event to report. ... "

"… The Board takes satisfaction in its rigorous control of overheads and preservation of the Group's Main Board Premium Listed status:

… We have continued to diligently research and explore strategic opportunities for the Group, primarily involving potential mergers, acquisitions and/or business alliances.

Over the last several years, we have considered many proposals from within various industries; consumer electronics, mining, mineral resources, green energy, internet service providers to specialist supply chain management services. Whilst I reflect on the fact that yet another year has gone by without being able to present to our shareholders a really compelling opportunity, I equally remain both enthusiastic and confident that such a deal should prove possible and in due course we will hopefully have a well-developed proposal that shall reward our shareholders' patience and provide them with significant value. …"

You simply cant buy these shares when a few buyers appear. Even just 1k shares is near on impossible. When it dropped to 64 offer they only accepted buys via FOK and all buys were NT.

I can see this doing a WRN type rise soon as WRN has had its day, it soared to £30 million mkt cap on pretty much nothing really, but investors have started to bail in droves there now and they will be looking for a new home for their profits and AUCT is the perfect place for that money.

Similar to WRN this is a Main Listing cash shell but it has cash in bank almost as much as mkt cap, great board and deals going to come here. Also there are only 2.4 million shares in free float which is why its so hard to get stock.

If you think its hard now to buy stock imagine trying to get some when news arrives.

If this hit same mkt cap as WRN (£30 million) it would be over £12 a share wow eh. Can see it easily at 150p soon which will be just £4 million mkt cap. Tiny eh

Thanks to the pump n dumpers who brought my notice to this company yesterday. I am going to be very happy to be a long term investor here for the following reasons.
1. The quality of the board of directors.
2. The ambition of the board of directors.
3. A brand new company with no debt or complications.
4. A tiny amount of shares.
5 A tiny market cap.
6. A full listing.

A great opportunity for anyone prepared to have a bit of patience and buy on the dips.
