mspayne,
I've picked up quite a few of these.Note that both the Chairman of Creightons (21.6% shareholder)and the Nemesis directors have private interests in the sector.I think things are set to liven up on this pretty soon.

More than 160 jobs have been safeguarded following the sale of home toiletries and fragrance manufacturer Potter and Moore Group by business turnaround specialists at KPMG Corporate Recovery.

They were appointed in June to help the Werrington, Peterborough company, which has continued to trade as a going concern.

The business has met its Nemesis - but is overjoyed. The buyer is Nemesis Toiletries Ltd, a newly-formed company, set up as a vehicle for the acquisition.

Nemesis Toiletries, which will continue to be based in Werrington, benefits from the combined industry expertise of three directors - CEO Bill Hamilton, chairman Barry Dale and sales & marketing director Roger Roberts. Hamilton was formerly CEO of Creightons plc where Roberts held a sales & marketing role, while Dale was CEO at Littlewoods.

Adrian Howlett, corporate recovery director with KPMG in St Albans, said: "We are delighted to have saved the jobs of a large number of employers through the sale. More significantly, this has also enabled the preservation of a business which has traded for over 250 years."

Nemesis CEO Bill Hamilton added: "By reorganising and establishing a new focus for the business the board intends to continue to efficiently serve its customer base and remain a major employer in the Peterborough region."

mioldmucker,
Where did you get the 12p figure from?

[mioldmucker] 28/12/2001 07:51

Rumour of bid may not be far off the mark imho!

Take a look up 9.1% already.

[barman92] 01/2/2001 09:02

Bringing this to the top. Up 28% today.

[barman92] 31/1/2001 15:55

Whatever happened here; I only ask because CRL is well up today and is today's buy rec. on

[rogerthat] 14/9/2000 11:10

Confirmation on RNS this morning of Bill Hamilton's resignation. More to follow...

[rogerthat] 05/9/2000 23:55

CRL has now moved forward to 12.5p on significant volumes. DYOR but I would suggest that the MBO is moving forward.

[rogerthat] 27/8/2000 16:12

Absolutely Belsizepark. I am merely suggesting a closer look, plus I also have had the advantage of premise observation along with considerable research prior to making this statement. I am also relaying information published in a newspaper last week. Please do your own research, make up your own mind or ignore this thread.

And belsizepark I would welcome constructive observation rather than the blindingly obvious.

[belsizepark] 26/8/2000 12:25

careful people... this is a tiny little company easily subject to a ramp on bulletin boards..

regards

belsizepark

[rogerthat] 25/8/2000 23:48

One to get a piece of come next Tuesday. 9.5p and set to head north.

[rogerthat] 23/8/2000 21:36

Reported yesterday, the CEO of Creightons has stepped aside to launch a probable MBO. A cash shell will probably be created here which could do wonders for the ailing share price currently at 9p. Do your own research here. Further background here
