csi - wouldn't selling all your shares leave a round number as well?

[csilondon] 05/1/2009 20:07

somebody actually bought some shares today as well, im thinking of buying no more then £100 worth just to round up my holding but am going to wait as Hoodless are good at shaking the tree.

[csilondon] 05/1/2009 20:06

it does your right technically oneilshaun we are at pre consolidation level of around about 0.0005p

The public company can offer a tax shelter to the private company. In many cases, the public company has taken a series of losses. A percentage of the losses can be carried forward and applied to future income. By merging the private and public company, it is possible to protect a percentage of the merged company's profits from future taxes. in theory this is whats out there on the net

starting to sound attractive though isnt it, im not exactly sure if loses can be carried over by a reverse takeover in relation to taxes but im not sure.

Its interesting as PLW has 8 mil of losses on its books ? I guess if a profitable company buys PLW then the loses are worth 8 mil.

Is that right or is it 40 % of 8 mil ?

[oneillshaun] 04/1/2009 19:41

There are a load of companies that would like the listing but cant for various reasons so PLW will be done with very soon.

[csilondon] 04/1/2009 19:25

as to whether plw would be worth a reverse takeover or not.

hmmm...

I not sure that 'debt shells' are very popular as reverse takeover targets!

I guess they have losses to carry forward, which could be useful for a profitable company

But there are plenty of other shells to choose from with both losses to carry forward and cash in the bank - so why would anyone choose to reverse into PLW?

[oneillshaun] 04/1/2009 17:10

about 40k from microgaming, so they have do a deal very quickly as they will not have any money to continue paying the fees to list.

[the analyst] 04/1/2009 16:50

Do PLW have cash in the bank or are they a shell with debt?

[oneillshaun] 04/1/2009 14:29

baronstjohn - forget about you holding unless you have more money than sense you will never be able to trade your loss.

[baronstjohn] 04/1/2009 11:06

Estseon; dug out my contract notes; not as "bad" as I thought ; lost c.£11k on these (still a lot to me), have about 50,000 shares pre consolidation.

Think I'll stay away from the markets for a while after this shambles.

All the best.

[estseon] 01/1/2009 10:42

HG

2 points.

1. is that 100k AFTER the reorganisation (I suspect not - I hope that you are not saying GBP).
2. There'll not be much of a market until there is some story to buy into.

Happy New Year and good luck with other investments. We were well and truly screwed on this one

[csilondon] 31/12/2008 18:33
