Posted at 01/9/2003 14:13 by land rover Could it be a qustion of enough is enough, the instiutional investors have been bitten once before and with this being the only real serious offer, is it simply a question of lets get out now while we can and move on. |
Posted at 26/8/2003 22:24 by hooley You may well be right about there being collusion, but it's useless if you can't prove it. Why the big funds should be party to such a scheme begs the question as to their motive. They would hardly want to run the risk of being exposed as acting against the interests of their investors - so what is in it for them? This one needs some media attention to stir it up in my view. Don't you think that if there is an unidentifiable concert party, the MBO won't get pretty close to 90%. I'd be amazed if the strategy hasn't been carefully worked out, based in part on the LSE nodding it through and the fear of outside shareholders. Perhaps the FSA should take a look? |
Posted at 26/8/2003 16:07 by hupper Hooley - I'm speculating I just looked at the amount the institutions hold and it comes to 57%+, I made the remark as the small investor never gets any info as to why the institutions sell and if they carry on a relationship with the company once it has delisted from the stock market. Like Ken50 says the simplest thing is not to accept if you believe it isn't a fair price, I think the management will find it hard to get 90%. |
Posted at 23/8/2003 20:37 by derit Sitting on the sidelines and warming the bench is never any fun.

Posted at 04/8/2003 09:49 by dontknowitall Me? A clever investor?LOL It's reached my target and I could not see much evidence of buying or movement today. |
Posted at 04/8/2003 09:36 by targatarga Large sells coming through. Usually the clever investors know in advance of any announcement. Say no more. |
Posted at 18/7/2003 10:47 by targatarga Any views on the independant directors standing up for ordinary investors please? |
Posted at 16/7/2003 14:57 by garth Biomax,looks like we agree then. Thanks for taking my comments in the spirit they were written. I REALLY HOPE that HPT make it. If they do, the potential upside is considerable. I just believe that the issue of debt should not be under-estimated and investors and potential investors should research this situation with some care. All the best. G. |
Posted at 15/7/2003 22:25 by garth Biomax,HPT are currently valued at around £7m (£1m equity, £6m debt) The downside here is losing everything if the banks say 'enough'. If they don't, and money owed is recovered and debt paid down, then the door opens to some upside.... Scenario 1 is that the management, having secured the future of the company, buy it out. Investors lose out but get something. Scenario 2 is that the independent Directors refuse to allow them this option and so the company is allowed to recover - to the long-term benefit of shareholders. If the debt situation gets resolved then there is, in my opinion, significant long term upside (compare the decline & turnaround in MGCR over the last 18 months). This won't be instant. Sure, the mm's will hike it up a first slice, but there will be more to follow. If the debt situation is not resolved then you lose everything. That does not seem as rosy as you are painting it, IMO. How much research have you done here (that's a genuine question - not a dig!)? They invested $1m in Surepower. It was going to be the great glory-story. I bought into it. But where is it? No comment on it in the last results announcement or in recent trading statements (which also contained no comment on trading). That niggling question led me to some research today. It started with a look at the SUREPOWER website (last news September 2002). Then a phone call for some information and an information pack. I won't be getting one...... DYOR! My 6 rules for investment are: 1. Don't invest what you can't afford to lose 2. Buy low, sell high (I'm still pretty hit & miss at the selling bit) 3. Don't be greedy - take a profit (still learning this one) 4. Research 5. Research 6. Research The last 3 have served me best. Do your own research here, IMO. All the best. G. |
Posted at 15/7/2003 17:05 by targatarga Garth your right. Everytime management of a dodgy stock try and buy a company they rip the ordinary investors off. VCT'S make a lot of money offering managers money to get a company on the cheap. The management of hpt have yet to do me any favours. Just look at the share price graph over the last few years. |
