No/low volume yesterday and today, tried a few dummy trades, the jobbers were good to buy 250,000 shares at 12, though I could only buy 1 share at 12.50 - all online.


So, I stick tight and wait',,,,

I have halved my holdings yesterday and today.
I have been trying to work out how much debt and equity they need. If you say they need £4m minimum equity at 8p a share that means a 50 pc increase in shares issued plus let us say £2m of very expensive debt. I admit that I may be wrong with the amount they need. Be interested to get a feel from others as to how much they think is needed.
I am also interested to see that as of Friday last Schroders were still trading ie had not been made privy to the discussions. They will need to sign off on any decision. I appreciate that if they were bought in they could not trade but not sure how much they could sell even if they wanted to.

Need to get this to a conclusion as can't really buy stock in the interim. Todays announcement is neutral imo.

[stemis] 16/1/2023 10:32

Doesn't look like there has been a made rush to buy the company, at least not at a level which is preferable to selling part at around the current price. That does rather undermine the idea that TGP is a strategic asset in a growing industry, either for competitors or for those on other parts of the value chain...

That would have been a disaster as it would have been before the last significant contracts.

Funding for a business growing revenue in chunks is a lot easier than funding when nothing much announced.

[dangersimpson2] 16/1/2023 10:03

So they are giving up, probably 29.9% of the company at 8pish/share, in order to secure debt funding to keep them going, and still going to have significant debt.

They would have been better off skipping all this palaver and just had a discounted rights issue when they realised they had run out of cash.

I’d rather have that dilution than be swallowed up or delisted which would give no chance to benefit from any medium term growth.

Unfortunately Working capital is a problem for quite a few promising businesses at the moment.

[chrisdgb] 16/1/2023 08:06

Remember the price was 8/9p at the time of announcement.......

[yump] 16/1/2023 08:04

Looks like an energy infrastruture / renewables institutional invester. With retained listing that looks better than selling out completely to another business.

TGP best performer in SIPP +67%

[chrisdgb] 10/1/2023 08:12

They really need to update on the strategic talks or else we have a danger of a false market......

New contract awards

Tekmar Group (AIM: TGP), a leading provider of technology and services for the global offshore energy markets, is pleased to announce that Group companies Pipeshield International Limited and Subsea Innovation Limited, have been awarded several significant contracts.

Pipeshield International Limited has been awarded multiple contracts from an offshore EPC contractor to provide pipeline support and protection materials for major subsea construction projects in the Middle East. The combined value of the projects is over GBP8 million with delivery expected in the first half of 2023. This builds on Pipeshield's extensive experience in the region and the contracts include the design, manufacturing and supply of concrete sleepers, concrete mattresses and associated equipment. The products will be manufactured at Pipeshield's regional supply bases in Damman (KSA) and Doha (Qatar).

Steven Howlett, Managing Director of Pipeshield, said: "The contracts help consolidate our position in the Middle East and create a basis for further regional expansion supporting our growth strategy. I congratulate the team on securing these projects, which are a testament to our subsea engineering and project management expertise, as well as our local manufacturing and supply chain capability".

Subsea Innovation has been awarded a significant contract for a bespoke turnkey launch and recovery (LAR) system. This builds on Subsea Innovation's extensive experience in the production of LARs systems and the scope of this contract includes the design and build of the A-frame, winch with interchangeable drum sets, hydraulic power unit (HPU) and transport frames. The contract value is approximately GBP2 million and is expected to be delivered by December 2023.

Dave Thompson, Managing Director of Subsea Innovation, said: "We are pleased that Subsea Innovation has been awarded this significant contract for bespoke mission equipment. This contract award further strengthens our position as a leader in the sector and supports the continued growth of our business. We are excited to work on this project and deliver exceptional results for our client."

Wow! Now winning contacts bigger than the companies market cap...👏 👏

[igoe104] 03/1/2023 16:33

News incoming soon, 60 day consultation period nearing an end.

[volsung] 03/1/2023 15:23

Now best performer in SIPP
Mote to come I hope

[harry_david] 30/12/2022 11:04

dave, I don't read it the way you do, we are just getting some end of year profit taking and the ones that have had the biggest rises attract the most selling.

[dave4545] 29/12/2022 09:30

It's done the same before.

Spiked to 16p then drifted all the way back to sub 8p.

Not surprised to see shanew48 posting, he is the ultimate sell signal on spike stocks

[igoe104] 29/12/2022 09:00

Crazy to see folks selling up, to make a quick buck. When around the corner TGP will be inundated with work..

[igoe104] 29/12/2022 08:52

Big Growth 2023, in wind farms....

[shanew48] 23/12/2022 17:49

Dots being put together for a multiple pound T/O Offer?

“TGP - in talks with an undisclosed party over a merger / takeover. Considering the company does a significant amount of work with #SSE and have just been awarded a multi-million pound contract, I’d say SSE are first in line for partnership but they also work with #Shell and #BP“

[imperial3] 23/12/2022 10:59

Share price momentum continuing nicely.

[c3479z] 23/12/2022 10:23

may be, but need to see some profitable growth.

[harry_david] 22/12/2022 19:33

Worth noting this company won this order because they have the best product and technology. Their win for such a prestigious operation will carry through to more big orders. The shares are clearly far underpriced relative to the immediate potential. Those who have stuck with them through the development phase are going to get all their money back and more.

[c3479z] 22/12/2022 16:56

igoe

well aware that the company may have been floated too early, was an investor and followed henderson smaller cos into it which was a mistake and should have got out when HSL did but held on 'til it subsided to around 40p before giving up the ghost....fortunately was never a large holding,
should be an example of a wonderful British company considering the lead Britain has in offshore windfarms but something went badly wrong along the way, they say the management at the time was too young and inexperienced.
