Posted at 20/10/2023 12:56 by fenners66 As for buying Terminix - I looked at their published accounts at the time and without explanation that I could find, their accounts were awful and the transaction looked way over priced.I posted on another thread I believe where RTO was being discussed that there did not seem a justification for the price and I expected it would take 3 years from then for the share price to regain the same as it was prior to announcing the transaction. I am surprised it has recovered so well up to now - but if it goes back to my 3 year (or longer) timescale for the synergies to be reflected in the share price that would be what I expected then anyway. |
Posted at 20/10/2023 12:52 by fenners66 >mortal1tyYou were describing RTO as a "bond proxy" I chose to give some relevant examples from that days RNS to show its not. I challenged your definition of RTO the whole company being a "bond proxy " because it is not and has not been at least in the last decade or more. Other companies ,like CSN or PHNX or IMB are more akin to bond proxies. They have models that left to their own devices will generate lots of cash and pay high dividends but the business will decline over time. RTO is nothing like them. Choosing instead to focus on the short term organic growth (which is still growing !) is trying to move the goalposts after I challenged you. As for organic growth we already know that post covid bed bugs will contribute. The Welch govt banning glue traps for rats will likely result in growth of more expensive remedies. Population growth / density and climate change world wide will most likely add even more pests to be controlled. So in principal any idea that RTO should move to ex-growth without acquisitions is imo completely flawed. As predicted you tried to defend your "bond-proxy" comment ... |

Further announcements and updates will be made in due course. Jason Smart, Founder of Ashington Innovation, commented: "We are delighted to have agreed a heads of terms to acquire Cell Therapy. During the past few months, we have reviewed numerous projects and believe the proposed acquisition meets our stated objective of identifying a potentially extremely valuable entity capable of sustainable development and with significant technological advantages. The directors believe that the regenerative medicine and biotechnology sector presents compelling opportunities to create value for shareholders and the proposed acquisition presents a high-quality target with an experienced and expert leadership. This is a very exciting opportunity to bring a scalable business with a strong track record to the public markets." " Ashington Innovation (ASHI):- |
Posted at 14/7/2023 14:42 by hedgehog 100 Shells subject to the £30M. RTO minimum, but that don't meet it, would no longer be eligible for the Main Market.So they would probably therefore list on AIM, and I don't see why this couldn't be via a direct transfer, with no full delisting in between. This is what the shell ELEG seems to be proposing; ELEG floated last year, and suspended for a RTO last week:- 07/07/2023 08:00 UK Regulatory (RNS & others) Electric Guitar Plc Proposed RTO LSE:ELEG Electric Guitar Plc "Heads of Terms signed Proposed Reverse Takeover and Suspension of Listing Reverse Takeover ELEG is pleased to announce that as of 6[th] July 2023 it has entered into a non -binding heads of terms to acquire (through a reverse takeover subject to regulatory and shareholder approval and due diligence) all the outstanding shares in 3radical Limited ("3radical") in an all-share transaction ("Transaction"). The Transaction is in line with ELEG's strategy set out at the time of its IPO last year. On completion of the Transaction, ELEG's intention is to cancel its listing on the Standard List and seek admission of its ordinary share capital, as enlarged following completion of the Transaction, to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission"). The heads of terms place an initial valuation on 3radical of £3 million, subject to adjustments. Suspension of Listing The Transaction, once completed, would constitute a reverse takeover under the Listing Rules. As ELEG is not yet able to provide full disclosure under Listing Rule 5.6.15, it has requested from the Financial Conduct Authority, and been granted, a suspension of listing in its shares with immediate effect pending either the issue of an announcement providing further details on the Transaction, the publication of a prospectus, or an announcement that the Transaction is not proceeding. ..." Indeed, for a shell that has been listed on the Main Market for 18 months, like ELEG, this transfer could be fast tracked. From Bird & Bird LLP, 17 August 2022, re transferring from the Main Market to AIM:- "AIM Designated Market (fast track) procedure for transfer to AIM Market provided shares listed for at least 18 months." |
Posted at 24/6/2023 12:50 by hedgehog 100 One of mii favourite shells at the moment:-Milton Capital (MII) 0.9p Market cap. £0.9M. 04/10/2022 07:10 UK Regulatory (RNS & others) Milton Capital PLC First Day of Dealings LSE:MII Milton Capital Plc "Admission to a Standard Listing and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange First day of dealings Admission details Milton Capital plc (LSE: MII) announces that 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares will today be admitted to the Standard Segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and to trading on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange. The placing of new ordinary shares has successfully raised a total of GBP950,000, at a placing price of GBP0.01 per share. Highlights: -- One Price for All - All investors have come in at the same IPO price; no Founder Shares or pre-IPO rounds; no warrants; no options. -- No Advisory/Broking Fees - The Company's advisor and broker, Peterhouse Capital, has agreed to waive all advisory fees and commission on all funds raised at the IPO and will receive no annual retainer. -- Capped listing and on-going costs - - The IPO costs, including all accounting, legal, PR and Exchange fees, which amount to GBP55,955, have been capped at GBP50,000 by Peterhouse Capital and as such, post Admission, the Company will have net proceeds of GBP950,000 ; - Total costs for the first full year after listing are also capped at GBP50,000. -- No ongoing director salaries - The Company's directors will receive no salaries or consultancy fees; compensation will only be received by way of a success fee on the completion of an acquisition approved by shareholders. Strategy The Company was formed to undertake one or more acquisitions of a majority interest in a company or business. Any such acquisition undertaken by the Company will be treated as a reverse takeover for the purposes of Chapter 5 of the Listing Rules. The directors intend to search initially for acquisition opportunities in the technology sector. The theme focus for the prospective acquisition is megatrends. This includes sectors such as space, artificial intelligence, machine learning and blockchain technology. Megatrends are powerful, transformative forces that can change the global economy, business and society. They drive innovation and redefine business strategies and have a meaningful impact on how we live, how we spend our money and how we invest. The disrupters in particular have produced dynamic profits for early-stage shareholders. Admission details Prior to Admission, the Company had 5,000,000 Existing Ordinary Shares in issue and conditional on Admission issued 95,000,000 Placing Shares. All Existing Ordinary Shares and Placing Shares were issued at a price of GBP0.01 per share. ..." |
Posted at 17/11/2022 18:06 by hedgehog 100 "SPACs that got their standard listing before the minimum MCap requirements changed to £30m have until Jun 23 before those rules apply.""I understand the transitional arrangements mean shells listed before the rules changed have to complete and be trading by Jun 23, if under the £30m. This does still mean that the Standard listed clean shells are still a route to a main market listing for smaller companies, but not for much longer." Sweet Karolina, First of all, please could you clarify what you are saying, especially as your above two statements are slightly different. Are you referring to a £30M. RTO by that deadline, or just any RTO? Secondly, please could you provide a source and link, as the info. seems to be inconsistent with some info. I copied into post 998 above. A requirement to complete a RTO by June 2023 would clearly require that the RTO process begins much earlier. As regards the premium paid to a shell's cash for a RTO: it can vary enormously, and the waters can also be muddied if there is no RTO placing, because any RTO price is then in effect a 'deemed' price: a shell can RTO a target for a given share of the equity, and then 'deem' a value for the shell and the target. Generally though, the RTO will also take account of cash spent by the shell, at least relatively recently, in pursuit of a RTO, and give a value of at least £250K. or so for the listing - though it can be multiples of that in some cases. |
Posted at 16/11/2022 23:52 by sweet karolina2 Hedgehog,I understand the transitional arrangements mean shells listed before the rules changed have to complete and be trading by Jun 23, if under the £30m. This does still mean that the Standard listed clean shells are still a route to a main market listing for smaller companies, but not for much longer. Re MTFB, the interesting bit is why the shareholders voted for 0p rather than allow the RTO to proceed, ie not get 0p. Basically the BoD was the BoD who ran the company into the ground in the first place trousering fees all the way, and whereas shareholders were getting very little - effectively the shell was being valued at about the cost of an AIM listing (there was no cash left in it by the time it got to the GM, which is why it should be struck off by CH any day now - already past the date in first Gazette), the BoD were getting oodles of cheap warrants. They company did then IPO directly using the DD already done. It started at 20p (the proposed RTO price after 220 to 1 consolidation) went up to 30p and has since come back down to 20p. Agree re CCAP had it not lost its listing, but all 5 AIM rule 15 shells lost their listings one way or another. The only one that does look like it is going to make it back to trading onto the standard list is SPC - it has now issued the prospectus and called the GM. The company coming in is effectively paying about £3.5m for the listing when you deduct the remaining cash from what is being paid for the shell and its cash, adding back 10% for costs of raising cash. At the RTO and placing price (they needed more than was left in the shell) - 0.3p those who bought into the shell at the cheapest price it was trading at after becoming an AIM rule 15 shell and prior to suspension on announcing the RTO, have theoretically made 50% (they only actually make it if the sell and the share price does not tank, which I strongly suspect it will) however there were a few trades where people paid over 0.3p so they are already under water. Of your clean shells that have got all the way to trading, what do you think is being paid for the listing ie the premium to cash left in the shell plus 10% at start of trading? I think the Greek pot company has way over paid for the shell and I think they have done that because they would not have made it on their own (the expanded MCap is over £30m and still would be if they had they not overpaid for the shell) Your interest in clean shells with main market listings is very different to my interest in dirty AIM rule 15 shells which stink from a risk / reward perspective, especially those that will have no cash by the time they make it back to trading (if they make it back). I don't think many realise the difference and therefore blunder in. I hope you don't mind me coming on your thread to highlight the difference. |
Posted at 25/5/2022 19:15 by hedgehog 100 NZI was suspended for a RTO last week.And it looks like a good one: a significant, profitable business in an exciting, buoyant space:- 19/05/2022 08:11 UK Regulatory (RNS & others) Net Zero Infrastructure Plc Proposed Acquisition and Suspension of Listing LSE:NZI Net Zero Infrastructure Plc "NZI, a special purpose acquisition company formed with the intention to acquire renewable or clean energy technology companies and to finance, develop and promote those environmentally sound projects internationally, is pleased to confirm that it has signed a non-binding letter of intent ("LOI") to acquire the entire issued share capital of Taylor Construction Plant Limited and Solar Highways Limited ("TCP" or "the Target"). TCP is a UK based infrastructure services business, for a combination of cash consideration and new shares in the Company (the "Proposed Transaction"). ..." Anyone who was dumping NZI at barely 2p per share recently must be kicking themselves, as if the RTO goes ahead - which it's odds on it will - then a share price of 4p+ looks pretty much nailed on. But challenging stock market conditions often throw up bargains like this: sometimes due to distressed sellers; but sometimes just due to people dumping at the bottom of a trough out of fear. And shells in particular often have a fairly typical share price pattern: an initial spike, often fueled by punters who don't appreciate the timescales and dilution of RTOs, followed by a lengthy, steady decline as boredom, impatience, and reality sets in. Which can then be followed by a RTO at a higher share price - sometimes much higher. Experienced investors can use this pattern to their advantage, waiting patiently for the optimum point to buy in. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Which is why TMOR looks well worth a punt at/near its one penny 4th. March IPO price. More Acquisitions (TMOR) 0.975p Market cap. £1.22M. |
