Posted at 24/3/2025 15:51 by wbodger I agree Bernstein has been excellent. Not sure who else is on the BoD, never mind influential enough to share the glory.Fact is Weinstein grabbed a 25% share when the CRS Board had not protected the Fund from an opportunistic break-up motion, and it was one thing to get 25% but would have been something else for Saba to get a majority to replace the Board. It could have been messy if enough of the larger holders (such as Wirral Pension Fund) had been of a mind to resist the break up after the initial motion had passed. It was easy enough to get 25% but you can't do much with it unless other shareholders were disgruntled with Bernstein. I would argue that the break-up motion damaged Bernstein's ability to resist Prax's bid for Hurricane Energy, and the 30% share of Hurricane was eventually liquidated for around 9 pence a share, which might have been well over 12 pence if the Hurricane Board had been under more pressure to maximise value for shareholders. Uncertainty and prudence required RB to consider worst outcomes instead of best. |

Posted at 15/10/2024 07:32 by briggs1209 Rise in CRS could now be larger in that of DLAR today. Seems like a great deal for DLAR, debt sorted out, pension scheme topped up, and cash left on the books. |
Posted at 09/10/2024 10:53 by wbodger I agree mbaxter, a brain-hurts moment, because of the ‘B’ shares wrinkle. But ignoring it, which is just a mechanism to distribute value, and it is pretty simple:They only still have DLAR, MMI and odds-and-ends like Allied Minds and Sutton Harbour. The odds-and-ends are worth less than a tenth of the total. The RNS confirms they no longer have any Prax DCUs. So it looks like end-game. I can see no point in continuing to pay £50,000 a month on admin when the directors have almost no chance to add value to the assets. Anyway there should be a motion about it at the AGM later this month. Aside from MMI everything else can be monetised and distibuted through ‘B’ shares: DLAR proceeds would be distributed through the mechanism, similarly the best available exit for Allied Minds (and Sutton Harbour etc) taken and distributed and perhaps the CRS listing would then represent the value of MMI alone. (I would welcome clarity on the MMI situation, and how the the "unaudited indicative valuation" is supported.) Presumably the date for the AGM will be included in a results RNS, which must be about due. |
Posted at 02/10/2024 13:54 by wbodger 4.7 pence reduction in NAV between July 31 and August 31. Vague reference to "unaudited indicative valuation" of Morphic remains word for word the same as September 11 RNS. DLAR share price lost 10% to end of August, that ought to account for about £3.3 million in the NAV calculation, or 4.5 pence per CA share.Last year Results came out on October 25, and the AGM was on November 22. |
Posted at 14/8/2024 14:55 by wbodger Monday's RNS reiterates the instruction to Winterflood, extending buybacks to October 31 but not committing any more funds to it. The total since December is now at £8,434,313.60 and they had previously authorised £10 million. Technically they could go £34,300 over but probably won't. Clearly they have just retained enough cash for the buyback programme. For reference, even a 10 pps dividend would cost £7.265 million plus Withholding tax. That's not affordable without an exit from DLAR.But at least Winterflood is offering a more tempting exit if you're impatient. |
Posted at 31/7/2024 14:41 by 1knocker Do we have any idea when there might be another capital distribution /dividend?It is a while since the last couple of [big] ones. |
Posted at 12/4/2024 03:46 by mobark2 Morphic got a brief mention in this review:Metabolic Endoscopy: Should Gastroenterologists Be Treating Type 2 Diabetes? CRS have most of their eggs in that basket. |
Posted at 22/1/2024 21:27 by mobark2 Does the CRS NAV include expected payments from PRAX? |
Posted at 08/6/2023 18:08 by wbodger On CRS, good to see Crystal Amber Ex-Div Date next Thursday, Record Date Friday. Not messing about. If Prax delivers its Hurricane Div as promised the CRS dividend gets paid 7 July. |
