They can change their minds but I agree it does seem like madness but do remember you are buying their slots which could be beneficial

BOD have already accepted offer of £2.2m for the company valuing at 1p a share
Net debt at £99m

Edit.
They are buying the company for £101.2m . I think most of their aircraft are leased and they made a tiny profit just one year otherwise it’s always been a loss. I tried to fly with them once but found them to be very expensive

Let's keep an eye on it.....How much do they owe in debts ?

[nortic 007] 11/1/2019 10:30

100,000 shares .... you make or lose £2 kNo different to the horses really

[whatsup32] 11/1/2019 10:26

Huge risk

Edit.
They are trading 3 x over takeover offer price of 1p

[nortic 007] 11/1/2019 10:23

The theory might be that someone else might give 5p........It's a 2p call option

Maybe the Millwall FC B team the way the share price has performed recently but I’ll keep on holding for now but I can see now why so many private investors lose money in the markets or give up completely, it’s a tough old game.GLA

[nortic 007] 09/1/2019 16:38

CNA remind me of Millwall FC

[nortic 007] 09/1/2019 10:19

IMB & BATS also on the wrong end of a broker downgrade - from outperform to perform.
IMB off 5.1% & BATS off 4.3%.

There are 2 sides to a coin. Imo cna is a recovery play at bombed out valuation with divi paid while you wait. A negative spin can always be made. Most holders will be well underwater here. Imo hold and take the dividend and wait patiently. The share price has had a torrid time but fortunes can easily change

[yump] 07/1/2019 16:04

I don't mind them losing the 'wrong' customers, if they are actually wrong and I think in the face of so much switching, customers will come back, although a few will get the 'ump I guess.

If CNA accept that they will have a lower number of customers and it stabilises profitability, then that's much more preferable than chasing volume at the wrong margin. I don't know if costs per customer decrease with higher customer numbers, as with a production line, so the economies of scale might not be applicable, in which case customer number chasing doesn't seem a good idea, unless you've established some sort of cross or upselling that takes them to the right margin.
