I imagine it will be a case of selling Cscape and Bluesky and then use the shell to reverse something into it. Cant see Keith delisting at this stage - what would that gain? secondly would not affect the value of the company privately so it would still be cheap. Killick is now 60+ - cant see him starting now to integrate new business into cscape? Strategy will be to bring in some new investors and raise some money. Then set about getting maximum for both cscape and bluesky, what happens after that will be anyones guess? Return cash to Shareholders via dividend and let the shell be taken over by some new business? who knows but Keith will be looking to get things moving soon im sure.Good time to buy at lows when everyone is so gloomy. Small caps are due a bounce next 6 moths, might be some downside yet but most are close to 10 + 15 year bottoms.

Just about 1 Month to end of financial period end, have they made a profit or are overheads still a problem, and what really was the reason for the consolidation ?.In my view just to entitle Kieth to get his hands on the majority of the company. How cynical is that .lol.
No mention of corporate action

Taken from the Company circular sent to shareholders 1/12/10

In addition, the Board believes that the Company's ability to attract new, particularly institutional, investors would be enhanced and so the liquidity of the Company's shares improved if, following a sub-division and redesignation of the Ordinary Shares, there was a consolidation of the shares then comprised in the Company's ordinary share capital into shares of a higher nominal amount.

And a few words of future prospects would have made the share price rise ,instead we got this

Capital Reorganisation

The Company's ordinary shares of 10p each ("Ordinary Shares") are currently trading at or below the nominal value. It is unlawful for the Company to allot Ordinary Shares at a discount to their nominal value and this, therefore, restricts the Company's ability to issue new Ordinary Shares, either for cash or non-cash consideration, at or near to the current market price of an Ordinary Share. Therefore, in order to undertake an equity fundraising or take advantage of any future opportunities, the Board proposes a sub-division and redesignation of the Ordinary Shares.

We do need as shareholders some measure of progress issued by RSN before the normal date of Christmas Eve
Does anyone else agree??

Jon c You feel sorry for investors who bought at higher prices,well you should be talking to MAX and 25wbh.!!!


When i pointed out value here the stock was 50% lower.!!!

However we all know how you hate any investor who does well.

As we know the boss[owner here] is planning to lift the value of the company with new cash as per reports.

I think so , you might see with keiths Gloom ( never over optimistic is he )that cScape/ blue sky might be split. As u me have said over the years , many many overcharges by head office eating into profits,and write-downs (to be declared at a later date to come back as profit.)
Merger/RTO most likely at this stage, as in keiths statement concerning the consolidation


From the consolidation statement

I'll start and no one else will agree with me.

The Co has a debt of circa £1.5m to the Inland Revenue which is in excess of 18 months overdue.

It should be a major concern for all investors.

For all that say this is going bust, take a look at Vaneric"S post above.

Try getting a guy who has seen £7.80 fall to 70p to buy some more at todays price.!!

He will not, cos in his head the pain is to great.

Just the time for new investors to buy in on the profit news, {the very thing investors bought in for, all those years ago.!!]

I wonder if it will appear in the Sunday Papers that the chairman of cScape has lashed out another £484.56p,plus charges in shares.Maybe he wants to buy the rest of the shares for 72p also.
The reason he recently gave for the buying of more shares was.

Capital Reorganisation



The Company's ordinary shares of 10p each ("Ordinary Shares") are currently trading at or below the nominal value. It is unlawful for the Company to allot Ordinary Shares at a discount to their nominal value and this, therefore, restricts the Company's ability to issue new Ordinary Shares, either for cash or non-cash consideration, at or near to the current market price of an Ordinary Share.

Lets wait and see how many institutional investors pile into cScape

The free float of a company is the proportion of shares that are held by investors who are likely to be willing trade. It is a measure of how many shares are reasonably liquid. It therefore excludes those shares held by strategic shareholders.

Strategic shareholdings typically include those of directors and those connected to them as well as shares held by parent companies and others who have links with the company that go beyond those of a portfolio investor.

Indices such the FTSE 100 are adjusted for the free float, so that companies are weighted by the total value of shares that are actually available to portfolio investors (i.e. market cap ×free float or a similar weighting) rather than the total market cap.
This is useful for performance measurement as it provides a benchmark more closely related to what money managers can actually buy.

Free float tends to be a much more important issue for smaller companies which commonly have several strategic shareholders and where directors shareholdings can be a significant part of the total share capital.

It is unusual for director's shareholdings in large companies to be large (in proportion to market cap), and there are fewer other strategic shareholders (other large shareholders tend to be fund managers) than in smaller companies.

Free float is rarely an issue for private investors except for companies that are both very small and closely held. It can be very important to institutional investors.

How to calculate free float
Calculating a company's free float to reasonable accuracy is not intrinsically at all difficult, but can require some care.

A company's annual report will contain a list of its largest shareholders and of director's shareholdings. Significant changes to these are also reported through announcements.

It is therefore possible to calculate a reasonably accurate free float estimate simply by:

1.Going through the annual report and identifying the strategic shareholders.
2.Collating their shareholdings and updating the totals by looking at relevant company announcements.
3.Summing the resulting updated shareholdings.
4.This total divided by total shares in issue is the percentage that is not free float. Subtracting this from 100% gives us the free float.
Although this can be a little tedious, the only real difficulty lies in identifying which of the major shareholders we should regard as strategic. Clearly another company in the same industry, a director, or a parent company will not sell their shares as lightly as a normal portfolio investor.

Fund mangers are usually portfolio investors. Some financial institutions have both fund management arms and private equity arms. It is usually clear which is the shareholder, but it is easy to make a mistake here.

A similar problem can arise with individuals with large shareholdings. Unless the individual is a director it may be difficult to tell what the nature of their interest is.
