Balfour Beatty Share Discussion Threads

I am a BBY and CLLN holder having bought both early July.
This jousting is great, long may it continue.

What's BBY strategy? Sell secure earnings, small cash return to placate s/h and then slash dividend - out go all the income investors - but who then buys a skinny margin concrete pourer? Potty! Better to keep Parsons and sell the remainder.

As a BBY shareholder, an extra dividend sounds good to me.

Alliance News headline: "Carillion Meets Balfour Beatty Shareholders, Offers Extra Dividend"

Looks as though it is Carillion playing the canny game...

Balfour may be playing a canny game with Carillion here. An aggressive takeover more likely than a buyout, at a much higher price than today.

Once again HVS, you have surpassed yourself with the insight provided. Have you considered a career in the city?

FAT

BBY is a busted flush. Clln should walk away and pick it up below £1 share in 6 months!

Its all OFF.

Looks like CLLN is in even more trouble than BBY.

What a bunch of clowns.

Hello Wiganer, my mrs from Plat Waz

It seems CLLN is once again making the first move in resuming the talk - and to make it attractive to the the BBY board (whose share had been trading around 280 prior to May), they really have to pitch the share offer of 1 to 1.2 CLLN share for every BBY share subject to due dilligence.

We shall soon find out.

Put two IDIOTS together and muddy the waters.

Then u has a truly English world beater.

Balfour and Carillion revive merger talks
The two FTSE 250 constriction giants had called off talks over a £3bn tie-up but a deal is once again on the cards after Carillion made concessions to Balfour

They wants a MONSTER

Muddy the waters.

Interesting that BBY is one of a few shares up today after Wall Street sell off. Is the market anticipating a Carillion hostile bid ?? However what is to stop BBY going ahead with Parsons sale as a Poison pill defence

[compound_dave] 01/8/2014 09:15

Thanks again for your insight HVS.

[hvs] 31/7/2014 19:37

Its CHEAP CHEAP if you buy IDIOTS in charge.

[scallywagkid] 31/7/2014 16:57

Balfour Board need to be reminded who they work for, they haven't earned the right to be judgemental. Not their place having hissy fits over sensible proposal by Carillion to retain Parsons...best interests of shareholders first and foremost. Can only hope that Carillion, or ANO, come back hostile and put us out of our misery.
