'Directors selling off options in unison'? Hardly. The Executive President of Operations (who is not in fact a director) exercised and sold £35k worth of options and the CFO exercised around £40k worth, of which he sold only £20k, to cover the tax liability. Hardly a disaster, given the large share purchases immediately after the bid fell through.

Good old chutsey still lingering like a rancid smell.

Not cheap enough ? Apollo were the ones who 'offered' £2.40 !

It isn't as though they said "how much?" and the board said "£2.40".

Something odd is going on here....

LOL Ham, Brownhorse has not marked your post red yet 😅

Yeah, PEs like Apollo ruthless about making money theough discount putchases, glad they done one, bunch of opportunist wonkers ;)

Not cheap enough I suspect. They have form.for pulling out of deals.

We don't want to know what Apollo's decision to withdraw was NOT related to. We want to know what it WAS related to....

From the above very positive report is ...

'It is our understanding that Apollo's decision to withdraw was not related to any information revealed by the due diligence phase of the approach. This does not come as a surprise to us, given Apollo will have already analysed the extensive financial information published recently by Wood Group, including its financial statements for the year to December 2022 which were published alongside the full year results presentation on the 28th of March 2023.'

Significant Director buyingThey know the business better than anyone else. Big drop is an opportunity

[faz] 19/5/2023 14:06

And you, now filtered, set a great example of how to be so superficial as to see the passing of a fantastic bloke and great bass player as an opportunity to make the most of your vanity.

[dave894] 19/5/2023 09:27

Not much movement here.

[dave894] 18/5/2023 22:02

Yes, bitterness eats away, not vey good for his well-being.

[pogue] 18/5/2023 18:05

He is an ex employee.

[dave894] 18/5/2023 17:14

chutes01, why do you have such a personal vendetta against WG. directors?

Are you an ex-employee with an axe to grind?

[volsung] 18/5/2023 15:29

Coming off an RSI of 18 this has to be a buy even for a trade
The directors buys are not too shabby either

[dealy] 18/5/2023 11:14

this is why the Holdings notifications are supposed to be reported during a bid process
