True it doesn't look great, but I simply wanted to correct the impression that this was shares they already owned rather than vesting now, and to point out that all three retained a larger proportion than they sold to cover costs.

I'm not here to defend management per se, and would welcome a bit of a shake up to improve shareholder value.

This time of year just post bonus payroll they wouldn't have any cash to pay the taxes.. oh hang on.

Management need to go.

To be accurate, the three directors who had awards vesting, all retained a greater proportion of shares than those they sold to cover the income tax, NI and dealing charges resulting from the vesting.

Looks like management have dumped their own stock into this rise as well lol

Looking strong again. Better than 0.

Today's press has items about selling off the data division. Bit odd. Yes it looks great in the accounts on p/e multiples but that's only because of the accounting. They get their raw product for 'free' i.e. the data generated by all the brokers and systems in the organisation. As an independent buisness where is this coming from? And how much does the now 3rd party want for it?... Still signs that investor unrest is spreading which is good for the buisness and share price if it gets rid of this useless management.

Would it be a risky decision to buy into a Friday close following such a strong recent rally and considering today's price action?

A three hamburger daily diet is reasonable. Providing the third of the day is a high quality Wagyu burger accompanied by a quality Jamaican rum and Coke (Coca Cola) with an accompaniment of side salads and hand cut chips.

We know YO (not so H) and if you have an argument, it doesn't do it any favours to keep repeating it.

Broker ramped dead cat bounce over .

Back to reality

A sunset business

Nobody has put a figure on the potential Cum-Ex liability

Profits collapsed

Terrible visibility

£1.1 billion market cap on £24 million profits.




STRONG SELL imho

708 - in other news it's been shown that just eating burgers for all three meals each day is a bad idea.

Sensible people diversify their investments. If your income comes from one company it is often sensible to have your investments elsewhere.

If the management won't even touch their own stock then the hedge funds will hoover as many as they can to force a sale and flush them out. There must be value there if that is their strategy.

[dhoult12] 24/3/2022 08:58

Needs to happen. Current management are self evidently awful for shareholder value.

[creditcrunchies] 23/3/2022 20:50

There's paragraph there that says we want this sold and the company run under new ownership. No messing about in their demands.

[jezza123] 23/3/2022 20:09

Yea classic active hedge fund strategy 101....

[creditcrunchies] 23/3/2022 20:07

Saying the management is poor it doesn't believe it its own company as they don't own many or any in some cases of shares. I'd say this is a pre-cursor to lining up a bid and remove the current management team that have decimated the share price. I wonder if they've been accumulating at these lows also so they own even more knowing full well the management couldn't even be bothered to dip into their own pockets to show investors they do actually believe in the company they run.

Basically if major share holders find a buyer in the US they'll green light a takeover there won't be much stopping them either because TCAP management don't buy any shares in their own company to support the share price

[jezza123] 23/3/2022 16:26

u got an article about this CC?

[creditcrunchies] 23/3/2022 15:46

I wonder what price they're looking for on a bid 200?
