Thats what all the old shareholders said over on SR Pharma and the right RTO was done thats benefiting all the shareholders now. Even some of the old shareholders that kept faith in the new managment are getting some of their money back.

Its a matter of getting the right people on board. I am sure Dawney Day could put something together and would explain why they hold 19% of Bidtimes.

Good things come to those who wait IMHO. Plenty of deals around but lets push the button on the right one at the right time


(Ps Shawzie you keep overlooking the fact that the value of the AIM listing is worth more then 2p a share to many who are looking to list on AIM at the moment)

The recently issued financial accounts, period ending February 28, 2006.
Almost nine months later, I reckon current further dilution of shareholders funds taking the nav per share to under 2p

Im simply offering the other side of the argument, could RS afford this to be delisted and have MRD call in the balance of the debt?
what if there is no reverse t/o?

I think you will find that Blue chip is ok and growing revenues. The reason for the EBITDA fall may be explained by preopening expenses for the opening of new venues like the Blue Chip-Walsall pub-style casino and the Queens casino in Warley. Also the UK gambling laws have if anything increased the valuation on operators like blue chip. (ps I also forgot to mention the 150k loan to the Blue Chip director above)

And how has RS kept BDT a float? I am sure he is not paying over the odds for the properties and going on the previous disposals and the rent roll on the three he is buying I am sure they would have fetched a bit more in time. But things need to move faster now and everything needs to be in order as its the Reverse take over and the buyer of the Dawney Day stake that will make for interesting times around the corner.

Many interested in parties looking for a cheap way for an AIM listing at the moment. Just look at SR Pharma (SPA) and you can see how shareholders can gain from the right reverse take over

if you read the MRD accounts you will see RS had personally guranteed the purchase of the BDT stake and would make good any loss on its subsequent sale, ergo did he really have a choice but to keep BDT afloat in the short term?

I wouldn't hold your breath on the Blue Chip investment - Blues Chip makes fairly enormous losses!

FYI

The AIM listing alone is worth 500k and its the reverse takeover that will be interesting especially with Dawney Day owning 18% of BDT already. Who ever does a deal with them controls this.

Also "The company's borrowings, which have now been reduced to
£563,530" and "realising the remaining properties for gross proceeds
amounting to £788,000"

Leaves circa £150k in cash

And then you have the Blue Chip Casino stake which is in at £75k but "The Board is,however, confident of the potential of the investment in Blue Chip Casinos Plc, but has adopted a prudent approach and continued to value this investment at its original cost"

and FYI The blue chip casinos stake was worth circa 375k at the last valuation when Isle of Capri bought its stake

The properties sold to Russell Stevens. Well there's a surprise. Oh well, at least they survive to fight another day. Not exactly a shareholder value creation story here in a booming property market!

You were right to question the level of my accountancy skills in July -

shawzie - 7 Jul'06 - 14:32 - 170 of 187
nav 4.29p at year end 2005. . . . . nav 3.33p at half year Aug 2005 . . . . . .
Will the nav at year end Feb 2006 be around 2.75p per share?

Perhaps I was too optimistic - with current nav around 2.2p

In a relatively buoyant property market and using the company's associated estate agent, it is somewhat beyond belief that they couldn't sell a few small new houses, particularly as these were showhomes. They also loaned money to the boss of Blue Chip if I remember correctly - wonder if they got this back? This company doesn't appear to have made one successful investment - hence, suspension!

I think you have to ask yourself the question, if blue chip was worth several times book value, why have they struggled to raise the debt on a few buy to lets? or if they were clearing the decks why not auction the properties, why have they allowed this to be suspended?

Interesting developments in the UK casino sector and for the valuation on Blue Chip Casinos

"Another day, another bid for a quoted UK Casino operator. Stanley Leisure (SLY) is up 35% over the last 2 sessions on confirmation of a bid approach (and fast on the heals of the bid for London Clubs by Harrah's). The single UK "Super" Casino license has gone from being a threat to the existing license holders, to a wonderful opportunity based on international operators coveting what existing licenses are already out there. Why gamble on "winning the big one" with the UK Government on the award the super casino license, when you can buy an existing license and only have Shareholders and The Takeover Panel to worry about"

I really doubt that Dawney Day etc are here for the current investments.


"the Board are still considering the possibility of issuing further shares following authority being granted to the board at the recent AGM. We, as a board believe this will be beneficial for the outlook of the Company in the medium term"

Perhaps it is indeed time for the board to be replaced and hopefully Dawney Day will now step in.

maybe the 145k has not been repaid, there were only 4 properties left which begs the question why they will not re finance, it was after all due to be extended around christmas if they were not sold, to be paying 2% over base on a tennented property is madness, for the banks not to refinance at that level and gain another arrangement fee does not bode well, i wonder if the directors were paid this year?
a bit of dilution on its way?

the delay could also be due to the finalising of funding for some corporate action

Yes, glad I sold out 18m ago. The share price performance since 2005 doesn't look too clever. Then again, very similar to Meriden and Innobox that have done the same!

Final results well overdue - for such a small operation, results could be
published by end of March. I suspect that the Directors wait six months to see how their other interest are turning out, or if good news can be issued to the market, before finalising BDT Report and Financial Statement.
