Mad share, how low can it go and that's on all resolutions passed. Good luck mate.

Still here DC. No promotion by CRV, in fact the opposite down beat comments from MP to discourage PIs (IMHO). Yet we have "indirect" investment by the new CEO at 12.50 and so whilst the drop is obviously disappointing I am holding tight.

[daicaprice] 29/12/2016 17:46

Any of you guys still here? Seems a mad drop from what I know of the Co. DM, txt or e-Mail if you don't want to comment publicly.

An LSE Poster -

I haven't posted for a while as there seems little point when there are now very few of us here, but I will put my view down and see if it gets any replies..

Scargs hits the nail on the head in his post, several have invested millions at $12.50 yet we don't see others following them in, that puzzles me..I blame the fact we are now priced in dollars as opposed to sub 1p, AIM punters like to own "millions" of shares as opposed to hundreds, I think some feel uncomfortable dealing in a foreign currency.

The situation regarding Panda and the court case not being reported in this country is quite frankly shameful..this could..be absolutely mega for CRV. I hear..there is an 8m euro break of contract clause which Panda will have to pay should we win. I hear.. we are back in court end of this month. I have no idea if we will win, but the signs i hear are good.

Results will be out by end of this month and I don't expect them to be fantastic, but as they are only until the end of May 2016 so much emphasis has to be on what the comments are, also post May 2016 much has happened. No doubt plenty of "jam tomorrow" statements. Our new Chairman however is no mug, so he will know what to say and do. There is no doubt in my mind that he has been brought in for a specific reason, but what is it? People of his credibility just don't join AIM companies without a very good reason.

Plenty of shareholders appear to have moved on and that's their choice, but i'm going to see this through. In my mind the balance of probabilities says there is a huge deal being made and Mr Burrows has been brought in to close it, I doubt very much if Mr Pajak was party to his appointment, I also think his days may well be numbered. We also have taken on large offices, I doubt they have rented all that space without having a plan to fill it with staff..Change of office was never notified officially, i thought they had to..

Our bank account is bulging at this time and if we are to believe yesterdays RNS there is more investment on it's way, I wish i knew what all this money was for, waste of time asking anyone connected with CRV as it's just a wall of silence, you don't even get the courtesy of a reply from anyone, they wont even say who sold us the Argentinian land for goodness sake..

Clearly they are all under instruction to ignore any shareholder questions.. I have no idea if I will still be here in months or years but I will see it through.

Good luck to us.

The new investor is currently over $1m down on paper, I would dearly love to see Mr Pajak and Mr Burrows presentation on investing in CRV.... it must be 'kin good !

[karina] 21/11/2016 09:39

Just needs a bit of PR or SI to promote CRV and $12.50 will be a distant memory, let alone $8.625.

For now promotion is clearly still not on the agenda, SI Capital haven't even tweeted the RNS which they do for their other companies.....

Our time will come and with Mr Burrows on board I favour it will be sooner rather than later.....

[knitcraft] 21/11/2016 09:26

Cash placing at $12.50 and share price £8.50. !!
Confidence shown again for CRV. Placings always well ahead of share price
One day soon this little gem will attract some real interest and by then the share price will be well ahead of current values.

How come the 01/08 announcement needed a clarification RNS? Apart from some blurb
added, the only difference between the releases seems to have been retracting the
line about "214% return on investment", changing it to "The directors believe the
investment to have provided an excellent return"

[karina] 18/8/2016 11:14

Interestingly..Our website has been updated and now incorporates a Chinese language option. Does this possibly mean that our proposed $150m investment is coming from China?

[knitcraft] 03/8/2016 21:16

£9 - £10 tomorrow, or will we be quoted in US$?

734 X 1.25 equates to £9.20 ps.

We will soon know.
