I think that because they are a concert party they won't be able to use the 90% rule to enforce a purchase of any minority. Do they really want the hassle of a load of small shareholders? Plus, of course, for Lumiere to get to 50% and control FFI, is harder when at least 38.4% of the rest aren't selling.

Today I can sell my holding at 25.05p. Note in the announcement - "Lumiere has purchased 16,953,018 FFI Shares in the market at a price of no more than 25p per FFI Share

That means someone else is buying...

Lumiere may purchase or arrange to purchase FFI Shares otherwise than under the Offer, at the Offer Price of 25 pence per FFI Share. FFI Shareholders interested in selling their FFI Shares in cash should contact Cantor Fitzgerald Europe on +44 20 7894 7590 who have authority to make market purchases on behalf of Lumiere (subject to normal settlement).

I'm guessing it's Lumiere in the market offering to take any shares at 25p. You may wonder why they are bothering when they are making a bid.

They need 75% to delist the company. At the moment the concert party controls 68.4%. There's very little free float. Maybe they are worried they won't get enough acceptances? Personally I'll wait. They may find they need to up their offer to get what they need. 5p on the outstanding 30% or so would only cost them £2.4m.

The Independent FFI Directors acknowledge that the Offer Price, whilst recommendable, may not fully recognise the potential shareholder value which may (or may not) be generated in the longer term following the integration of the acquisitions and the execution of the FFI Board's strategy....

Notwithstanding the above advice to FFI Shareholders, the Independent FFI Directors do however, in their personal capacity as FFI Shareholders, continue to believe in the merit and longer term potential of the Company's business and the FFI Board's strategy, as more fully described in paragraph 8 and the prospect of continuing to execute this away from the public markets in conjunction with the 777 Group, as more fully described in paragraph 12. Accordingly, the Independent FFI Directors are not intending to accept the Offer in respect of their holdings of FFI Shares...

The Lumiere Concert Party comprises Lumiere, Golden Sun, JDT, James Terlizzi, the Trattner Trust, Antony Mitchell, Timothy Trankina and Stephen Argent.

Essentially this is the board and Golden Sun planning to de-list the company and using Lumiere to offer an exit for any shareholders who want it at 25p. One of them that does is the CEO Ransohoff, who for whatever reason wants out.

FFI floated two years ago at £1.50 so a takeout like this at 25p does not feel like a positive ending for most who have invested here.

I doubt many holders here bought at 150p.

FWIW IMO the chart for this share looks very grim indeed since it started over 2 year view

A takeout was always on the cards here but Lumiere have picked up a real baragain @25p when the price should have been at least 50% higher !

Today, Lumiere agreed to acquire 47,476,547 FFI Shares, representing 30.1 per cent. of the Total FFI Shares, from Steven Ransohoff, the CEO and executive director of FFI and The Crystal Court Trust, a trust of which Steven Ransohoff and his immediate family are the beneficiaries (the "Sellers"), at a price of 24.99 pence per FFI Share (the "Acquisition"). It is expected that the Acquisition will complete on or around the date of this Announcement. As a result of the Acquisition, under Rule 9 of the Takeover Code, Lumiere is required to make a mandatory cash offer (the "Offer") for the FFI Shares not already held or agreed to be acquired by Lumiere, at a price of 25 pence per FFI Share (being not less than the price per FFI Share being paid to the Sellers). Lumiere will make the Offer through the publication and dispatch of the Offer Document and Form of Acceptance, both of which will be posted to FFI Shareholders as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event within 28 days after the date of this Announcement, other than to FFI Shareholders resident in a Restricted Jurisdiction.

Wrt a MBO it is my understanding that as long as any of these persons namely
Tim Trankina, Chief Financial Officer, Anthony Mitchell, Chief Operating Officer, and Kevin Hyman, CEO of subsidiary Pivotal Post were part of a MBO then the lowest the company could be bought out at would be 30p.

That is until the middle of June 2019.



The City Code applies to the Company. Under the City Code, if an acquisition of interests in shares were to increase the aggregate holding of the acquirer and its concert parties to interests in shares carrying 30 percent. or more of the voting rights in the Company, the acquirer and, depending on circumstances, its concert
parties would be required (except with the consent of the Panel) to make a cash offer for the outstanding shares in the Company at a price not less than the highest price paid for interests in shares by the acquirer or its concert parties during the previous 12 months.


London, 15 June 2018- FFI Holdings PLC (AIM: FFI), the leading provider of diversified services to the makers of film, TV, mini-series and online media, announces that the Company has been notified that Tim Trankina, Chief Financial Officer, Anthony Mitchell, Chief Operating Officer, and Kevin Hyman, CEO of subsidiary Pivotal Post, have exercised 765,247, 340,110 and 557,780 options respectively over ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 30 pence per Ordinary Share.


That is my understanding , happy to be corrected if I am wrong.
