Daisy has continued its quest to consolidate the UK SME telecoms sector with the £10.45m acquisition of BNS Telecom Group, its second buy-out in 10 days.

The Lancashire-based firm announced today that it has agreed a cash deal to acquire BNS' fully diluted ordinary share capital at a price of 20p per share. BNS operates as a voice over IP (VoIP) carrier, as well as reselling hardware, data, services and fixed and mobile lines and minutes. The Northumberland-based company delisted from the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) last year.

BNS has 8,000 customers and posted EBITDA of £3.2m on sales of £36.9m in its last fiscal year. Daisy claims its acquisition will bolster its standing in the reseller market.

The acquisitive telecoms specialist added that BNS' VoIP offering would provide a wealth of opportunities to cross-sell lucrative long-term contracts into its existing customer base. The acquisition also includes BNS subsidiary 3g Comms, a mobile specialist holding Vodafone's Premier Service Provider badge.

Daisy has made no secret of its desire to consolidate the SME and mid-market telecoms arena and today indicated that the fragmented nature of the market would provide many more acquisition opportunities. Since floating on the AIM last year, the firm has embarked on a buying spree, including deals for AT Communications, Eurotel, Redstone Telecom and Managed Communications, which was bought for £6.3m last week.

Daisy chief executive Matthew Riley said: "This offer makes great sense for Daisy, given the scale and position of BNS within the UK SME market. This acquisition will strengthen our position in the reseller market and is another step towards Daisy consolidating this fragmented sector."

Who is "they" though? Sounds like the CEO got away with £800k and could well have used that to pick up a bigger share of the company for nothing. Certainly good for him, good for his property company and mey even be good for BNS employees it it secures their futures. Pretty bad if you are one of the unfortunate few other shareholders though. CEO will be laughing all the way to the bank though and it looks like he has manouvered himself out of a big mess now that he won't have to pay back the £800k. Nice!

8Trader - agree on the reputation part and just hope from the thread that things are changing for this company as I have watched by stock of BTP drop from around 60p to as low as 5p so maybe things are really changing for the better!? We will have to wait and see and then I could buy more and average my price.....

martin.

BTP is on my monitor, i think the rise is due to the fact there is
so little stock around, when it was 6-7p i tried to buy but could
not get a thing online and when i was in the process fo trying via
the phone the offer went to 8p.

If the spread narrows i might have another try, like the cash generation
part of the business, i see it has a bit of a bad reputation though in the
past so if i do buy i will keep it small.

Results look quite good, hence the rise in the share price. Using the leasing company to generate the cash and tying people into long contracts looks like a good tactic by the company and clearly legal. Looks like the only cloud is the loan may not be repaid on time which suggests that Moat may not be able to repay it on time due to the lack of liquidity in the property market. But the company and products look to be finally heading in the right direction. Could be a good time to buy these shares.

there is mega problems ahead for this company, they have been leasing out telephone calls and lines which is totally against the law, the leasing companys are now getting wise to this and stopping this from happening, which in return is gonna mean that they cannot turn over the same amount of money, well honestly anyway, I have respect for mr moat in what he has done, its his second attempt or third and its worked this time for him he cannot honestly say its been an honest buck made but its a buck all the same, I dont agree with the way the company damages small companys, or the way the company treats its sales force but if rich people buy shares to get richer then your just another pawn in Mr Moats game and you have been stuffed big style, look at the share price when it started circa 64p now its 4p you need to start being honest with yourselfs and realise in the words of michael jackson " you been hit by you been struck by a smooth criminal"

With the loan being unsecured it might be the best move Moat made - at least he will have got away with £800k that he doesn't have to pay back. Would be a bit of a mess though - BNS going after it's own CEO. I wonder what the other big shareholders think of it, the company going down the pan, big share price falls every time someone sells and the CEO has plundered 800k to prop up his property business. The way the property market is going you wouldn't bet against Moat defaulting. Although he has probably been very clever as 650k of the loan was to Moat himself and only £120k to MPL, so it's not like anyone could go after all the properties in MPL and would have to go after Moat himself. No doubt his palacial house will be safe. Check it out on Google Earth, very nice! Not too nice for BNS shareholders though! Moat's debt is now equivalent to 32% of the market cap of the company.

I wonder why there was quite a big dump of shares....is their delayed trading update not looking to good maybe?

Could well be right, it does sound like disgruntled sales guys, one at least does admit to working with the competition. There was also someone claiming to be a customer and the share price had collapsed well before these guys started posting. So perhaps worth trying to find out if, as these "posters" claimed and what they were saying was indeed "fact" as they claimed. Better to expose them if their claims are untrue.
