Been a while since my last takeover but from memory you will receive the full amount without share sale charges. Not sure about commission though

Whenever any of my companies have been subject to a takeover, I've always eventually sold into the Market. Can anyone advise the process of holding without going to the Market? I'm thinking that with nearly 23k stock, a few pence margin by the MMs is worth potentially £1k+Tiaspud

Thanks hotters, it was a nice start to the week. Plenty more UK PLC's are looking attractive to overseas buyers with GBP this low and undervalued share prices.

Interesting, also it was around 670 recently, really hope some US co's get in the mix, bidding war please..

Probably one of the stocks I held the longest circa 20 years.

November 2015 this was £10 a share . This isn't finished it will go higher this is a quality unique company just undervalued . watch

Financial bids like this are about the only takeovers the Competition and Markets Authority will allow these days. Greene King is being bought for its dullness. Good assets, reliable earnings, slow but steady growth. You can see why the board have recommended the offer. It would take years for the share price to get to 850p under its own steam. But congrats to the holders, especially those who predicted a takeover only days ago.

[chc15] 19/8/2019 16:52

Yeh, i just wish I bought more the other day, gutted lol

[philanderer] 19/8/2019 16:49

Well, well, been out in the garden cutting up logs for the last two hours and come in to see this !!

CHC15 , top call you made last week :-)

[gripfit] 19/8/2019 16:42

hpcg,,, your playing with fire being short on StaffLINE ,,,, .Seriously , this could be taken out at any time,,, Hrnet would not be paying £1.80 a share if they didn't want it.. and most of your thoughts for being short are priced in. But hey hoe, good luck with it,,,

[nigelbarker] 19/8/2019 16:42

Marstons or Marshalls rather interesting days ahead in my view

[jeffian] 19/8/2019 16:36

I'd rather they went for Marstons. Perhaps that's next?!

[spud] 19/8/2019 16:31

Plenty of US drinks giants will be crunching the numbers over the next few days imo. spud

[essentialinvestor] 19/8/2019 16:27

Ian, nicer problems to have! Well done.

[chc15] 19/8/2019 16:25

True, any cos u can think of? the Chinese have plenty of cash, can't see anyone competing with them..

[jeffian] 19/8/2019 16:24

Oh FFS! The 2 largest holdings in my portfolio already taken over or subject to agreed bid and now this!!! The Chancellor won't need to worry about a Budget this year, I'll be paying the National Debt on my own!

[spud] 19/8/2019 16:23

Not done if a counter offer is lodged. The Company is obligated to recommend the best offer for shareholders. spud

[chc15] 19/8/2019 16:18

Who though?, any thoughts, this deal seems like it's done.

[nigelbarker] 19/8/2019 16:11

I think someone else will come in

[waspfactory] 19/8/2019 15:56
