Is the Betaville article Uncooked or confirmed ?

Something will soon leak. Too many parties involved now!

If I where Matt I would carefully leak small but news worthy snippets to stress out the shorts that are colluding (in my opinion) with the times.
Fight fire with fire .
Tick tock

[london07] 25/4/2022 08:39

Tick tock news anytime. And we may get leaks of the details

I really think this will be bought, the manufacture and general retail sides sold and PE keeps Ingenuity, for near nada.
But hey, let's see, and have spread my investments broadly.

[london07] 25/4/2022 08:22

Yep all the hallmarks of a Bidding War...

[genierub] 25/4/2022 08:19

Offer will be minimum 300p.
This is an easy buy and hold now.
Let's go with the RNS with THG or those lining up with a bid.

UNCOOKED ALERT: THG said to ... - Part 13

Friday, 22 April 2022, 4:01 pm
A fourth US-based private equity firm is circling THG, the e-commerce company.

People following the situation have heard Carlyle has been studying THG, which is led by Matt Moulding, with a view to making an offer for the business.

Carlyle is rumoured to be working with advisers from Bank of America on the potential deal, said these people following the situation.

However, it's not clear whether Carlyle has made a formal approach for THG.

News of Carlyle's interest in THG comes after the company said yesterday that it had received and rejected several takeover proposals.

In a statement yesterday, THG, said: "You will all be aware that there has been significant speculation about possible third party interest in THG. I can confirm that the board has received indicative proposals from numerous parties in recent weeks. The board has concluded that each and every proposal to date has been unacceptable, failing to reflect the fair value of the group, and confirms that THG is not currently in receipt of any approaches. We continue to focus on delivering our exciting growth strategy across a number of large global sectors, and prepare to step up to the premium segment of the LSE at the appropriate time."

Betaville Intelligence revealed earlier this year that THG had received interested in backing a buy-out from from Advent International, Leonard Green Partners and Apollo.

Apollo was subsequently reported by The Sunday Times to have been primarily interested in THG Group's debt.

A spokesperson for Carlyle didn't respond to requests for comment.

Cat is out of the bag. 4th US PE in play. And Carlyle are probably the 2nd biggest PE firm in the World after Blackstone ;)

I am sure further PE firms will also join the party. It's simply massively undervalued.and they have tech for the future. Whoever buys it knows, in a few years, THG will be a monster!!!

At present the bears are still in control

Shorters are trying everything here and it just aint gonna work. This business will be taken over asap

[london07] 25/4/2022 07:44

Libel case. Hope they have to pay huge damages. Can Telegraph pay few hundred million damages that their fake article caused, which they then pulled and apologised for! Everyone involved in this scheme against THG should be investigated by the FCA, and charges bought, that would be a nice day!!

[trolleyfull] 25/4/2022 07:36

Shocking attempted market manipulation by the times in my opinion.

[london07] 25/4/2022 07:33

Oh wow just seen it, see you in court. Desperate from The Times or what!

[griffo221] 25/4/2022 07:24

Looks like poor reporting finally getting what it deserves.

[imjustdandy] 25/4/2022 07:24

Will continue towards two pounds this month unless of course a 5 pound take out offer arrives first.
