Worldpay Share Discussion Threads

[evil_doctor_facilier] 07/7/2017 08:25

Should see some weekend speculation about google pay, amazon or apple interest in this.
I can not believe that the giants are going to let this slip away from them especially with the $ so strong against the pound.
Suspect the take out price eventually will be nearer 450p.

btw declared interest.Took some at 360 yesterday...

Very wise red

[red5] 05/7/2017 14:18

looks so far taking the profit now looked like a wise decision?

[honestcrook] 05/7/2017 13:45

Alot of people have got stung here. Glad not me. Took a Gamble and shorted. Current price s about what it will be if bid goes ahead if not 320 for sure. In the mean time I say down and down. I'm out for a quick few hundred on a short. Good luck all

[billytkid2] 05/7/2017 13:42

A strange one. Loads of talk of various bidders yesterday and then agrees a deal the next day at only 20% premium.

J.P. Morgan hereby announces that it does not intend to make an offer

[honestcrook] 05/7/2017 13:25

Glad I shorted this at 422 today

[robizm] 05/7/2017 13:24

Not anymore

[honestcrook] 05/7/2017 13:23

Down it will go to previous SP

[billytkid2] 05/7/2017 13:02

Equivalent to £3.85 offer accepted it seems. Bit of a premium to that at the moment, I guess due to possible rise in Vantiv shares or another bidder.

[red5] 05/7/2017 11:08

Oh well took profits today sitting on 43% profit better than nothing probably sold to soon but a profit is a profit.

[jarega85] 05/7/2017 08:38

Seems that there was a shorter which was increased in June, ouch!

UKOG has the words oil and gas in the name - as they say 'what's at the top of a deep hole' - usually a liar !

[wiltshireram] 04/7/2017 21:53

According to the outfit that broke the possible takeover news:

i) expected offer price 450-500p per share
ii) other bidders may now also get involved, Apple Pay and PayPal being two of those mentioned.

Press extracts
‘

‘
"The synergy potential in payment system tie-ups is significant. With Vantiv's offer likely to comprise a majority of stock and JPM likely to offer all cash, this offers a hugely attractive situation; a similar sized entity where the impact of the synergies will be significant for the combined entity, bidding against the power of the JPM balance sheet."
‘
Olivetree said a deal would make sense for an number of reasons for both Vantiv and JPMorgan Chase. It noted that Worldpay has been weak in the US, with its market share in the region of 1-3% for a number of years. The leaders there, with 14-17% market share, are JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America, while Vantiv is in the top 5. "Thus moving Worldpay's US volumes would be value accretive," it said.
‘
In addition, it pointed out that both companies have a presence in the US online market, but have little scale in the international market, with Worldpay's geographical exposure opposite to them. Finally, it said the platforms developed by between 2012 and 2016 are extremely high quality in contrast to the possibly dated platforms of both Vantiv and JPM.
