Talking of prepack with 300 million in cash and 600 undrawn RCF, with interest covered by earnings, reason for adjusted loss an onerous contract provision.
Prepack, what an idiot post

Simply wouldn't occur to the thickest of the thick that they would want to command the strongest hand in administration in order to have the credibility and gain the confidence of the creditors when this shower falls into prepack.

Well I can't imagine they are shorting to hedge against a 23% stake, they are so underwater that even a disclosed 0.5% short wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference.
Lending to shorts to drive the price down would only benefit them if they then swooped and bought a shed load more at a much lower price. Maybe that's their plan B in case plan A the CEO actually starts to deliver.

Who is know what they doing with their stake...they might even be lending their shares to short/longs in the process earning commission?...or shorting their own stake to hedge...do they really just buy and sit on it?...

That's what I don't get about cosmens, if they truly knew what the fy update would be, why would they pump millions into it either side of Xmas in the 70/80s, they could have waited and saved millions!!

It's strange then how the Cosmen family keep pumping money down the drain as you see it, as does the Company secretary buying yesterday.Good point from LSE that demotion from 250 could mean funds dropping out of their trackers. Good play for shorts perhaps.Appalling 30m contract loss, unaffordable 41m dividend. They understand their mistakes at last, with that kitchen sink was throw into last results.No Cosmens then less confidence perhaps but they know their onions.

Not really because he probably isn't told necessarily when Cosmens are going to add further.
Obviously no ongoing discussions but at this valuation and the plan to sell NA schools, an approach could be made at anytime.

Bit worrying that nothing is happening though. Given state of whole thing I would hope they were exploring options for everything

[diku] 26/4/2024 21:53

Pretend he didn't know?...

[chester9] 26/4/2024 17:49

Go Simon Callender 93k shares acquired at 53p. Simon is Group General Counsel and Company Secretary. .He now holds 246k unrestricted and awards 505k. This puts any takeover back as he would absolutely be in the know..Nice to see

[diku] 25/4/2024 20:53

Hope so...sooner the better...

The slow pace of the yellow bus sale taking to end of 2024 when announced October 23 smacks of getting the company ready to be split up under guidance of Cosmens.I think it gives us the signal that takeover comes in next 8 months. Tick tock

[magnum opus] 25/4/2024 13:27

News just out - Cosmens increased further 1%

[chester9] 24/4/2024 13:11

No Marshall Wallace increased short by 0.09% on 22nd. Daily small movements will take place but it's now about time.

@Zam1 I have been following this share now for several months and been looking for an entry.

Where do you see the share price before you look to buy back in? Currently looking to join sub 50p.

[orchestralis] 24/4/2024 08:48

NASB needs to be sold.

[jo2362] 24/4/2024 08:44

Chester

The short increasing was prior to results though (16Apr) so why the drop today on no news?

[chester9] 24/4/2024 08:25

Shorts increased. The share price reflects the current. The Cosmens look long. Short term hard to predict but sell yellow bus business and deliver 3 year plan and share price will be multiples of 54p. If company gets that far without takeover. Just hold and watch.

[zam1] 22/4/2024 17:00

I am not invested sold long time back Just watching see how low it gets if worth buy then
