If you need the cash right away, there is no point in hanging on until the cash is paid out, as that could be up to 6 months away. They haven't published the timetable yet, have they? Presumably that will be in the formal offer document sent to shareholders. Also no dividend will be paid, so nothing to hang on for there.

It's normal practice.

This may end up with an agreed bid but the S & N board has not even been formerly approached yet.

To all holders

Put simply, you just need to decide whether cash now at the current price is better than holding on for an offer which let's face it might not even materialise.

Another thing that makes a sell tempting to me right now is that by simply investing the cash proceeds I can achieve almost double the amount I get in annual dividends in interest from a savings account. Of course, it was so different back in 2003 when SCTN yielded me close to 6% and the BoE base rate was approx. 3.5%

So is it worth me holding out for another - say 50p/share - on top of the near-400p/share profit I am currently sitting on? Still, it's nice to face a dilemma like that every once in a while!

I find it strange that Heineken quit the mainstream UK beer market around the same time as I bought shares in SCTN.

It would have been alot cheaper to consolidate way back then. However, maybe Mr Froggat wouldn't then have got a proper crack at turning the business around. I think he did a sterling job and deserves a great big pat on the back from all of us. Scottish & Newcastle plc won't be the same without the Australian maestro, so maybe now the time is right to allow a takeover to proceed - at the right price of course.

Scottish and Newcastle (SCTN) was in the spotlight following renewed speculation that Danish brewing group Carlsberg could be preparing a bid for the company. Its shares managed to finish 13p higher at 593p. In other M&A activity

Yawn...

Sometimes shares go up, sometimes they go down. Today they went down.

My SCTN profits now down to 48% (excluding dividends)

Zzzzzzzz...

Musings on the recent sctn action.
Assuming, as has long been mooted, SABM are interested in part or all of sctn.
A SABM offer 710p would almost certainly be successful.
Even the recent past share price of 500p to 550p was thought by many to have a bid element.
SABM are reluctant to bid 710p and think sctn is worth less, at least to them, but think that a bid of say 625p to 650p would not be successful.
SABM think/hope that, in time, the share price will fall back and a bid of max. 650p, be successful.
Are there any other likely interested parties?

Time there was a statement from SCTN! One wonders if some of these 1m + buys I referred to previously were purely speculative!
J3419 While I broadly agree with your opinion on the market I don't think Iran is so critical to sctn.

ByeByeBooby (again... yawn)

I do have reason to be unhappy though... Shame SCTN never quite dipped as low as my ptential top-up price of 514p however I even thought about doubling up as late as Tuesday for the dividend (switching out of TTG, where I am showing a 43% gain) :(

reminder for BLOBJOB: I bought SCTN at 388p :)

I still see no reason to sell SCTN.

Dividend yield at my entry price is 5.7% and rising.
