Take over rumours @ CYAN?!?!?

Might be the kiss of death... but is this not the best ever percentage improvement from a low?

[emptyend] 19/6/2018 11:06

...indeed, it isn't. But there is no need or advantage to him in doing so.

Opportunity for the guy calling the shots (and that's not Cronin any longer btw) to dilute the current PIs to oblivion.

[emptyend] 19/6/2018 10:40

....mmmm...very quiet - and another day of a rising share price.......looking quite tricky.....

[emptyend] 19/6/2018 09:08

....just wondering how the buying-back of any short positions is going?#askingforafriend

[emptyend] 19/6/2018 06:55

...reasonable guess. Just missing a few letters.

[mtw] 18/6/2018 23:51

payable over 5 years...

[lwaxf13] 18/6/2018 23:15

£100 total. Am I close?

[emptyend] 18/6/2018 21:40

emptyend… it would have been so much easier if you had just written out a cheque made payable to J Cronin.

Well I've taken the plunge and tripled my stake in recent days at an average of under 8.5p..........so I'll enjoy at least three days of marked to market profit on the increase......;-)

RealistLol on sbp. Do you think JC might make a gesture at agm of reducing his salary? There's an instant £500k saving been made, that's more than SSs fees surely.

[realist1950] 14/6/2018 10:05

LOL stupidboypike. Actually, you have read one other good post from me, where I complemented you on having one of the best user names on ADVFN.

[realist1950] 14/6/2018 10:04

I'll probably resign myself soon, from the cyan commentary / chat and advfn in general.

Life is busy.

I hope that by tempering the often blind (and biased) rallying cries of the bulls, more of the reality of the situation has come to the fore....and maybe even a few people avoided losing their hard earned money along the way.

Many things trouble me about the business, but I have to say, it is the level of renumeration here VS (and I stress that point - VS) delivered results that has stuck in my craw the most.

The single biggest gesture the BOD could do at the AGM is renounce their renumeration packages ENTIRELY - and for some time to come and NOT then to hike the same when payments begin again.

But that wont happen.

If it did however, it would show a level of sincerity and acknowledgement over what they have taken to date VS cash delivered...........further it would also signal their belief and conviction for the future prospects of the business. After all, the market has clearly heard enough hot air.

Regards.

That's the only good post I've ever seen from you. Many thanks from everyone. Goodbye

Best regards SBP

davep4 - well the reason, the official reason, is that cited in the RNS.

Pressure from retail investors, from a corporate point of view is negligible, because of the shareholder split you're all pretty powerless when it comes to hiring / firing staff.

Pressure, if indeed it contributed, would more likely come from future (major) funding sources.

Management should be under a level of pressure, generally. This is especially the case in an underperforming business or at least one that is solely reliable on investor funds to remain as a going concern. And you could argue further that directors who are receiving handsome pay should be under more pressure still to bring the business to fruition.

Ultimately the buck has to stop with the CEO as he or she is the person at the wheel.

Being the primary point of contact for shareholders, Simon Smith always struck me as one of the more attentive, decent and earnest members of the BOD. However, if a resignation was to occur at the company, it's not a surprise to me that it would be him.

If indeed he found the water was getting too hot, as your post infers, then he's probably better off out of it and I'm sure most CYAN shareholders would wish him well - something I could begin to understand. He certainly was not an arrogant man. At the end of the day it's just a job - one that has paid him pretty well.

I agree with realist as often do.
Whatever the reason SS done a runner he should not leave the country until after endgAIM.
