An interesting recent fundraise by BRS.

Only c. £70K. raised, but the placing price of £1.20 is a hefty premium: 50% above the current BRS share price of 80p, and 60% more than the share price on 14th. February (75p).

Moreover, BRS's loss in its 6 months to 30.9.23 was only £19,714, at which point it still had cash of £328,900, and £358,991 net & net current assets.

The market cap. at 80p is £944,266, but these types of shells can arrange RTOs at multiples of their cash.

It looks to me like this placing could well be a prelude to an imminent proposed RTO, at a BRS share price of at least £1.20/share, but potentially a lot higher than that.

Merry Christmas fellow Burns Stewart holders.

Nice One :)

Not sure - it does say in the rns, but I'm looking to get the cash early, so am trying to sell in the market. I'll lose a couple of pence per share but there is an old saying along the lines of leave a bit for the next guy. Mind you, if it is only about a month, those with the cash could make a quick turn of 3% or so in that time. In this market, that's not to be sneezed at.

[sonic23] 16/12/2002 14:35

Anyone know when we'll see the money?
Thanks

[dontrader] 16/12/2002 13:45

Worth the wait.

[nigelsom] 16/12/2002 13:38

rns out:

YYYIPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[thumper123] 16/12/2002 13:37

Well looks like we did it! 75 pence a share, the ticker just hit 72. ROFLMAO. The foolhardy thumper

[nigelsom] 16/12/2002 09:46

RNS: EMM disclosure. What about the t/o?

[thumper123] 16/12/2002 00:44

Just spoken to my researcher. He says dough in bank, deal done, announcement monday. I wonder?

[balcony] 14/12/2002 14:57

one of this mornings papers says bid coming monday

[dontrader] 13/12/2002 11:58

See article in today's scotsman.



Radio Scotland are quoting from this I think. Company sources. By my clock I would say this is mid-morning.

[nigelsom] 13/12/2002 09:40

Announcement (but don't get too excited)..........yep, it's another emm disclosure. AFX quoted 'sources' that it would be this week and that the price would be 65-75p. But it also said tues or weds. Did radio scotland give any hint as to their sources, or are they going on the afx story that it would be this week and therefore today?

[dontrader] 13/12/2002 09:00

Strong rumours that today is the day. BBC radio Scotland this am.

[dontrader] 12/12/2002 14:39

Yawn is correct.On a number of occasions the press have speculated that the deal is only a couple of days away but they always are unfounded rumours.

I am nervous. I show a good profit from an original buy price of 12p and wonder if it is worth waiting for the elusive 70 to 75p.

Don

[nigelsom] 12/12/2002 09:15

We have an rns.........yet another emm disclusure. Yawn.

[nigelsom] 12/12/2002 09:12

The only info I want is that rns!

[thumper123] 12/12/2002 07:29

I think it true to say that my opinions on this stock are supported by some of the best possible research. My researcher told me that he had spoken with a board member on teusday and was assured that the published programme was going ahead and the deal was to be signed in Antigua that night and released as news to london at wednesday opening. Yet another delay is not impossible, for this has been on the stocks for along time... but the market makers dont have much faith, for the price drops on even a little activity. More info gratefuly recd.

[lardhead2] 11/12/2002 09:30

Morning all,does anyone out there have info on the
'expected' takeover - it been mentioned in the press
twice this week.......so far.....?

[nigelsom] 06/12/2002 08:32

Yet more rumours that action imminent. Let's hope so this time - should be a good Christmas at 70p+

[thumper123] 06/12/2002 08:16

Ireally cant be the only person with any interest in this angostura panto. Rise yesterday, early trade today. Is there really a chance that this long distance engagement will move to closer quarters?

[thumper123] 05/12/2002 09:23

would like to know what more experienced traders think about BRS ...will take over end in bitter tears. I've been a holder for long time @62p, and have bought another 20 today. Price is up, but spread is wider than a brokers smile. My man who knows opines action is imminent- but we heard this before. Thoughts, comments would be appreciated. I know you are all busy doing stuff that only grown ups understand, but Ireally would appreciate some input.

[thumper123] 04/12/2002 19:22

BURNS STUART ? motion at last.

Been in and out at least three times, currently holding 20 thou at 62. Chat is that this will happen for us on Tuesday next, hoping for 70,ish. Can anyoneelse add to this -for good or ill?
