thanks for the advice

As I do not need the cash now, I will wait and see what happens.
Ironically, I would expect the new company to do very well with their connections and potentially large synergistic cost savings
Who will benefit? The old management but certainly not investors

I am looking at the picture now, not then and IMO there is much greater value now - the order book should still be there, for example.

The Dixons had no alternative to accept as private investors with such a large stake; also, the directors 'recommend' the offer when they manage to keep their jobs and also have no significant holding, coincidentally

- I also do not want to get involved in your spat with jdb, thank you

.... Unclear who Sultan are - do the Dixons have any stake there?"

I don't know about the Dixons but I would guess there is a strong connection between Sultan and the recent chairmanship change at CBF. The Funding Announcement gave a reasonable explanation of the make-up and objectives of Sultan imho -

"Sultan Scientific Limited operates internationally, investing in and building
specialised companies capable of rapid commercialisation and value generation in
the Medical and Environmental Technology sectors.
"Sultan is a Private Investment Company under the Chairmanship of Sir John Banham
with Managing Director, Dr Mike Hudson and management advisers and shareholders
who often personally play key roles in the management of the companies in which
they invest. Sultan is an active investor in a portfolio of high growth companies,
selecting a single lead partner with whom to invest and work in key industry sectors."

As regards the views of the Dixons on dilution etc, they may not have had much choice in the matter other than to dissent with possibly catastrophic results (although that is pure conjecture, of course.) Anyway, they are presumably part of the consenting 52% claimed in relation to the EGM.

Would like to know why the Dixons just didnt lend the £300k themselves rather than allow themselves to be diluted. Very generous terms offered to the new investors

Phoney - It seems that you know very little about vaccine manufacture and running a business. One day you are saying the order book looks good and then trying to imply they don't have the cash to pay their way.
I would much rather rely on my research than yours.
I repeat again £11m orders secured for 2009. 9 more months to increase their performance and to show investors they can run the business profitably.

If they did not deliver products on time and to specification they would not be winning repeat orders.

Boring nonetheless .... you believe that other investors who have risked their funds (unlike you) are not fully aware of the risks .... you are deluded by a false premise assuming that you are the 'saviour' of the investing world waving a multitude of 'beware' banners and without your unending input, will be swept away with the tide of financial ignorance. Your biggest crime is the repetition with which you boringly emphasise the same old facets relating to the risk.

I'm not in the slightest bit worried as you imply .... just bored to tears reading your painfully tedious posts.

Yawn .... zzzz

Just not enough investors around during Easter holidays.

You never know, but at current share price we stand at just £1.7million, which is way short of what any bid will be.

Maybe investors will take note, or maybe not, we will see.

10p certainly and 20p would be very nice, but I think we would need a battle to see that 20p.

No, I dont hold CBF. Just watched it for a while and interested in how it does.

Fwiw, I want success for the company. Just giving an objective view.

The fact is that the company is on a knife edge. As such, I suggest not expecting too much.

All said though, the main investors are probably long-termers and more relaxed.

"Cobra had cash and cash equivalents of GBP0.3m as at 30 September 2008 and
incurred a loss of GBP3.3m for the twelve months ended 30 September 2008."

Any slippage with contracts and they're in trouble

I spent years manufacturing biologics. Issues crop up!

I'm not saying it will go down the pan, but these concerns may well result in investors accepting a lower price than you think
