Nice holding RNS. I have been trying for another 100k here but seems that the stock is a little difficult to get hold of.

[casabella2] 11/1/2017 13:16

Me too, dont like to miss a bargain.

[tech_ip] 11/1/2017 10:44

Bought some. Just look at who's running this, can see far higher prices.

SWG should now settle down a bit as AIMHO it has recently become over cooked in the short term!

[cpap man] 11/1/2017 09:23

Used to be AUM

To anyone looking in for the first time and wondering why Shearwater is the highest percentage loser currently, it is down to our Company, Aurum Mining (AUR), taking over the ticker (SWG) from Scott Wilson plc, which now does not exist in its previous form. Our Company's share price is actually holding up nicely.

Also, on the main ADVFN SWG page the "Shearwater Daily Update" is inaccurate as it too appears to be a description of Scott Walker plc, NOT Shearwater plc (previously AUR).

Hope that lot makes sense.

Thanks for opening the thread loadsofdosh2.

Exciting times ahead.

They need to be canny as cyber security is very much in the news so any small company in the sector will not be inclined to give themselves away in financial terms.

Wonder what the mining interests are actually worth on the open market?

Time to buy the dips

[loadsadosh2] 10/1/2017 09:48

OK, new thread for the former Aurum Mining - now Shearwater Group.
Not surprisingly, there has been a dip in the share price following the placing at 4p.
Let us hope that an acquisition is announced before long.

Today delisting - so the chips will be cashed soonest and a short term success story will be over. I can dine out on this one for a few months.

Goodbye to all.

Wrong thread now on ROK.

[martin2729] 19/7/2010 16:46

Hi can any one tell me what happens on the 10th september when
Provided the Scheme is approved in accordance
with the current indicative timetable, the Company will delist on 10 September
2010 and ownership will transfer to Universe.
Iam a holder in swg but have never been in a company that has been taken over before as I have only been trading a short time.So not quite sure what happens if swg stops trading?
any information would really be appreciated

Thanks, Phil. I've now reinvested my SWG cash, including a chunk in FWEB.

[zangdook] 05/7/2010 16:52

I'm out too. Too many other opportunities. Just hope I don't blow it all.

[philjeans] 05/7/2010 11:46

Sold my main holding here just now for 286p - just could be a higher bid but I'm very happy with that.

Re-invested in FWEB - another one way under the radar and could very likely attract a bid - see the thread.

Scott Wilson Group to close defined benefit scheme
2010-07-02 - Employee Benefits Group

The Scott Wilson Group is to close its defined benefit (DB) scheme to future accrual, replacing it with a defined contribution (DC) scheme.

The organisation has completed a 60-day consultation with its scheme members and is now working with its scheme trustees to finalise the implementation arrangements with an effective target date of 1 October.

The Scott Wilson Group has reported a reduction in its scheme deficit to £63.3m as of 2 May, a £15.7m improvement compared to the position reported at the half year.

Georgina Corbett, group HR director at Scott Wilson, said: "We have conducted extensive consultation with the members and trustees of the Scott Wilson defined benefit scheme and we are now in the process of concluding the implementation arrangements with the members and trustees.

"The scheme deficit has changed primarily because of revised actuarial assumptions, required by UK accounting regulations, which have taken place between the announcement of the interim and final year results.

"The company does have a shared section of the railways pension scheme which will remain open to future service accrual, however we are also in the process of consulting with the membership of this scheme to increase member and company contributions."

No idea who bought. Just assumed URS otherwise share price would have risen if anyone else.

[zangdook] 02/7/2010 15:25

Artemis and Aviva. Did your source confirm it was URS who bought them?

[25babies] 02/7/2010 14:47

Just confirmed that indeed it was the CH2M sale. Seems they made £4m plus. Must have paid for their advisers' costs plus a little over. Drinks all round. But who then sold these shares to CH2M and 'dropped' this amount?

[spot1034] 02/7/2010 12:22

Having checked recent announcements it's the exact number held by CH2M, so they've clearly sold, and one would assume to URS. Nice little earner!

[spot1034] 02/7/2010 11:56

I saw that go through on the CNBC ticker - was wondering who would be trading at the full offer price, unless of-course it's someone building a stake in advance of a further bid?
