This seems to be creeping upwards. Should get info about the new name and direction soon. Fingers crossed.

All that I can add to the above is that I see that Honeycomb is managed by Pollen Street - and Pollen Street are very astute - but also very hard - so GLI will be paying a handsome price for their support.

I don't really understand the business model. Have a small holding which will get diluted, looking at the excess shares on offer.

GLIF needs a lot of cleaning up until its basically Sancus which is in my view an attractive business capable of being grown and making a nice niche position. I don't own them so participating or not is not relevant but I'd be tempted to ignore it, and invest again once the clean up is complete. If I had a lot at stake I'd be concerned about dilution of course

#709 Don't take advice from anonymous bb posters who may (probably in the case of the above!) have a financial agenda diametrically opposed to yours.

Probably a good place to be again right now so maybe that's why they're clearing the decks

How do these companies get themselves intonsuch a mess , it was better off years ago when it was invested in dodgy American debt .

A blip on the monitor! Gentlemen, we have a pulse, the merest signs of life!

Could not get an online quote for these ...

I agree with posters (and have said for some time) that the goodwill and Fintech investments are worthless. However, I don't agree that the company is insolvent. Clearly it has an issue repaying its ZDP's but it has an agreement for the moment with them and they are supporting the business in the hope of making a full recovery so on it goes. No reason to see why that would not be extended again in December. Sancus meanwhile is a good business albeit no doubt affected by COVID like everyone else.

distressed level pricing on GLIZ, implying either it will go pop or they will re/re/restructure it again. If GLIZ is trading at distress level, clearly glif shareshould be down to zero Owned glif long time ago when it was just the equity piece of a clo. The "strategic" investment in multitude of platform basically destroyed shareholder value. Sancus involvement probably delayed the inevitable.

"Supposed to repay on the 5th Dec 20201" Gosh, that's really what you call long term debt. Edit: thanks Yieldsearch.

[yieldsearch] 30/4/2020 15:10

GLIZ trading at 107. Supposed to repay on the 5th Dec 2020 at 141.152. hmm... typo corrected!!

Shocking set of results - board need to be removed or the co will be bust in months

[makinbuks] 18/2/2020 17:46

Jerseymike, Are you sure they could afford to repay the ZDPs? Tender offer for 25% leaves , what £13m worth? That's one year of Sancus Revenue. They made a loss last year with the extent of the write down of the Platforms to be decided.I don't know why these bounced in value back at the end of the year

hTTps://www.investegate.co.uk/gli-finance-limited--glif-/rns/results-of-class-meetings-and-egm/201911081510318565S/ Further to the Company's announcement of 21 October 2019 regarding the Proposals for the continuation of the ZDP Shares, the Company announces that all resolutions proposed at the class meeting of Ordinary Shareholders, the class meeting of ZDP Shareholders and the extraordinary general meeting held earlier today were duly passed. The extension of the life of the ZDP Shares from 5 December 2019 to 5 December 2020 takes immediate effect. The increased rate of return on the ZDP Shares, from 5.5% to 8% on the issue price of the ZDP Shares, will take effect from 6 December 2019 in accordance with the New Articles. The final capital entitlement to which ZDP Shareholders will be entitled at the extended repayment date is therefore increased from 130.696 pence per ZDP Share to 141.152 pence per ZDP Share. Capitalised terms used and not defined in this announcement have the meanings given in the Company's announcement of 21 October 2019.

They could afford to pay the ZDPs put it does the balance sheet no good. Sancus is doing really well and once the historic crud is dealt with, this will reverse. My concern would be a reverse takeover once the ZDPs are repaid. Not good now but real hope fo the future.

[baner] 21/10/2019 08:21

ZDP holders have no option but to accept prolongation. alternative is a steep haircut if GLI turns a forced seller of its assets. the fintech assets are probably worth 0-ish in such a scenario and there could well be significant loan losses in the portfolio too. however, given some time, they may be able to work the assets out less brutally and survive with the lending business intact. very high risk in this stock - however you could see them double in 18-24 months. not much to lose - maybe worth a punt?
