Nanoco Share Discussion Threads

ME did quite well on the (almost) million shares he picked up in Nov 18? Also he has sold big at other times since 2013, without too dramatic an effect. Too much emphasis on him. Plus maybe he does need the money.

[bagpuss67] 07/5/2019 07:31

Yes. I recall. It would be interesting to see his average disposal price and total proceeds.

Bagpuss.ME sold 1.3m shares in 2013 at £1.63 and look what happened to the share price after that ....I followed his lead at the time.

[bagpuss67] 07/5/2019 07:25

Just cant get past the fact that if ME ME ME thought there was another £1 in the share price from where it is today he woundnt havs sold 2m shares and lost £2m. If he doesn't believe in it then I'm really struggling to see why I should.

At least Plessey are better at PR than NANO:

Thanks to Mars1 on the LSE BB for the link.

Also thanks to Nanonano for this one:

They'd need 30% or more of the company, plus the bid would have to be at least twice the highest share price within the last twelve months.

Then there are all the licensee's of Nanoco's technology. I think a takeover is exceedingly unlikely.

andy, all long term holders hope it would be a substantial offer,
but there are no guarantees. LO and a few others would be in profit
at todays price.

[andycapped] 06/5/2019 09:03

That would require a substantial offer well above past share levels, plus a very large stakeholder. The largest is Lombard Odier, whose stake is well below the required threshold.

[notimpressed] 05/5/2019 14:39

devious thinking might conclude the business is being
trimmed down for a takeover as no directors with the exception
of nigel pickett hold a significant amount of shares.
the conclusion being if it is sold he will be remain with it
and the remainder paid off.
I know its wild speculation but anything is possible.

[jfacwc] 04/5/2019 07:23

Don't follow why.One plus point though. He doesnt own a significant enough amount of shares to be called a disgrace any longer.Pretty bum price he got for his sales (thought I was bad ...). was he out to prove a point?

[mrplay] 03/5/2019 08:37

Mike has always been a disgrace.

[bagpuss67] 03/5/2019 08:20

Alternatively he had financially insulated himself from the risk by having sold huge amounts of shares over a number of years and if everything goes pear shaped it won't ruin his life style

Trouble is he hasnt delivered anything for long term shareholders and many have put money in to fund his remuneration and his massive indulgence on corporate costs over the years

[notimpressed] 03/5/2019 08:07

thanks mike and nige for everything. if as stated ME's holding is down
to 1 million, is he getting all the ducks in a row to enable his departure

[mr.oz] 03/5/2019 08:03

He's a liarbility

[bagpuss67] 03/5/2019 07:53

Share price gets above 50p and he personally crashss it back through that psychological number. Watch the head and shoulders now and we get stuffed again. What do these salss also say about short term news flow?

[bagpuss67] 03/5/2019 07:23

Grim and depressing. Why does our CEO appear to live beyond his means or worse not have faith in delivering a material increase in the share price Genuinely tempted to completely exit this.

[ghaon] 02/5/2019 22:11

Large sales can sometimes be worked into the market. Nothing fishy about that. It is reported when completed.

[notimpressed] 02/5/2019 21:57

if the shares were traded over 3 days why were they
not reported at the time by the stock exchange.
pi's trades are recorded instantly.

[howl01] 02/5/2019 21:42

Thought so - says it all. Thanks

[roadster750] 02/5/2019 21:35

just over a million
pickett 11 million

[howl01] 02/5/2019 21:23

Anyone have a handle on number of shares ME holds now? Can't find the figure

[ghaon] 02/5/2019 21:05

Pickett has loads of shares. The fact that he only sold 227K of shares is the takeaway.

[notimpressed] 02/5/2019 19:49

edelmans got form on selling, but pickett selling is scary

[notimpressed] 02/5/2019 19:39

low and behold 250k trades showing to close of play then
bingo over 5 million show up out of hours???
maybe an investigation by the SFO is in order
