Its not a good deal.This share is vastly ubdervalued.

[slaterlp] 22/6/2007 17:42

if true then buy now for 105p. Its a good deal.

[wyorke] 22/6/2007 15:25

market not 10% up, == not bid!
high risk.!

[hotfinance14] 22/6/2007 10:29

Stone wont sell for less than 125p.

It is part of the FT Market report:

Northgate Information Solutions, off just 0.6 per cent at 78¾p, was supported by talk of a 105p-a-share private equity bid.

Northgate ended takeover talks with a number of buyout firms last October but traders are sceptical that any will return given that Northgate has just acquired a majority stake in Arinso, a Belgian software provider.

However, they said a sale of Northgate's outsourcing business could not be ruled out.

105p would be very acceptable to me.

[hotfinance14] 22/6/2007 08:40

Not seen it Staverton...105p seems low.

[staverton] 22/6/2007 08:26

Talk of 105p bid according to the FT--anyone read the full article

NIS shares.

[slaterlp] 21/6/2007 18:08

L and G's shares, or L and G's NIS shares?

[hotfinance14] 20/6/2007 10:52

Looks like somebody is after L&G's shares.

[ducatiman] 20/6/2007 10:34

hotfinance, legal and general have sold shares and are now below the 4% threshold for reporting transactions. Would seem this was an overhang that has cleared unless there is any other reason for buying/rise that anyone knows about

[staverton] 20/6/2007 10:31

Just adds more to the general confusion here!!

[hotfinance14] 20/6/2007 10:29

What is L and G reduction ?

[ducatiman] 20/6/2007 10:05

news of l and g reduction seems to have triggered buying for some reason unless anyone is aware of any other reason?

[das9] 19/6/2007 12:15

Could anyone help with an accurate PE for NIS? Times says 19.6, FT says 9.4 . Suspect the answer is more complicated than the question!

[grlz] 18/6/2007 15:03

I would agree with the minimum value being the last informal bid price - which was judged as being under the company's potential anyway by Stone.

[hotfinance14] 18/6/2007 10:14

Minimum value 120p.

[superglide] 18/6/2007 09:07

At current sp? probably 95p. Would do for me lol!

[hotfinance14] 16/6/2007 11:30

Interesting question..maybe not much more as there is the increased debt.

[slaterlp] 16/6/2007 09:58

Suppose there were to be a bid attempt.

What price would it have to be now with the recent purchase of Arinso?
