In the US shareholders only have to report quarterly and even then they are given 30 days grace.....eeza wise up, smell the coffee:-) the UK company regs are comparitively good and therefore attracting foreign investment.

No prob.tks

Thankfully, the possibility of a "Dutch Auction" hasn't materialised. I will be pleased to get out of 20% of holdings, and will take a view thereafter.

[seekerofvalue] 10/8/2012 10:20

That is good news, I have now bought SIGG at 66.25p.

[jaws6] 10/8/2012 10:19

badtime
So 20 % at 89 is that correct or am I wrong ?

[skyship] 10/8/2012 10:16

A good opening shot for recent shareholders to repair some of the damage...

[badtime] 10/8/2012 09:49

Tender offer RNS out

[insipiens] 08/8/2012 11:47

So effectively if you bought now you would be buying at a 47% discount (to the remaining "illiquid" 56% as of Sep 2013).

I wonder if the price then is reasonable, assuming it perhaps takes another 4 years (2015) to liquidate the 56% then a return of approx 12% a year?

Maybe my calcs are wrong

[tiltonboy] 02/8/2012 14:37

SKYSHIP,

Tempted to do likewise, but may wait for the Tender offer and see what transpires.

[skyship] 02/8/2012 14:21

The upcoming tender tending to underwrite the sp; but nevertheless I've decided to cut my losses and raise a little cash for other opportunities.

[stemis] 02/8/2012 13:58

The liquidity expectations for the Company's investments have been reduced since the previously published estimate, with the percentage extending over more than one year (the "tail") increasing from 37 to 56%.

Surprised it's not down more to be honest.

[tiltonboy] 01/8/2012 22:31

but over a longer timeframe...not an inspiring announcement I'm afraid.

[badtime] 01/8/2012 21:53

RNS out aftr hrs confirming cash position and mentioning there desire to return some via tender offer

[skyship] 27/7/2012 17:57

June NAV comes out far better than expected - 89.95p:

[badtime] 24/7/2012 09:36

lol...cheers

[tiltonboy] 23/7/2012 21:27

badtime,

I'm trying to pick more up if that is an answer!

[badtime] 23/7/2012 20:03

How did the meeting go with ACD?

[jaws6] 23/7/2012 10:57

tiltonboy
May be because of Europe they cautious,Got none.

[tiltonboy] 23/7/2012 10:49

I'm more concerned why the seller is selling. I met with ACD on Thursday, and they were a little cautious in SIGG.

[skyship] 23/7/2012 10:33

So the MAM funds were the buyers - taking their stake from 3.975m to 5.675m (5.92%). Good news wouldn't you say Tilts?



Chart suggests this ship may finally be turning around...
