gam now out.sold almost 4m @75p.wonder who bought them? just musing as i sold out yesterday first thing. gl to anyone continuing to hold
Yep - i saw this RNS. Wonder if their plan is to either: a) block the acquisition; or 2) make a counter offer once they reach 30%. Shouldn't be to difficult given there are a lot of sellers in play at the moment, so they can reach the 30% threshold.
But if the former - i do wonder if it means i'm being silly by not selling - can the bid be cancelled?
Could get interesting!!
I do wonder if DBAY will buy 25.01% of outstanding shares and possibly attempt to block the sale. Is that even possible?
I haven't sold yet - happy to wait for the 75p as there isn't anything I currently want to buy - still in the research phase... But at the same time, i don't want to risk a fall...
This post is in no way meant to annoy. Having been in that position before..it leaves a terrible taste. But this post is an attempt to understand Capital Gains.
Inevitably there are folk who were lucky enough to obtain the reverse outcome..and profit from recent events.
I saw the expansion of the business, ignoring debt, threw caution to the wind and purchased at 48.5 in February in ordinary / non ISA account. Didnt expect recent events...had it as a lth..sticks I'd no intention of touching for years. Pure and utter luck then occurred.
Now I'm thinking of taking profit but am baffled by CGT.
I would be very grateful if someone could throw some light on CGT..(or even point me in the right direction to info on CGT for dumbies).
Is the simplest method to roughly stay within yearly CGT allowance to top slice the profit and use the top slice as an approx running total for the yearly allowance?
Thanks in advance.
Congrats to all shareholders.. It was my first stock.. Holded for 2 years but sold all in last 2 months.. Holders has shown the extreme patience which has been rewarded :-)
Lolz ?? you can only laugh!
Your thread name. Is exactly what I said when I saw the offer lol. Your right have to let it go noe
Let it go. You're not the only one. A bummer for me too.
I feel your pain JM. First time poster but long time holder. Sold out yesterday morning for a 10% loss. Couldn’t sleep last night as struggling to understand how unlucky you have to be......
I’m trying to move on but it’s not easy! I guess if I can make the difference back in another stock it will help! They say to be patient......Well I held for over 2 years so......
Anyway I hope you can forget about it. Well done to all that held till the final whistle. Injury time winner screwed us hey
Kicking myself here. Held for over 2 long boring years and sold at a 5% gain 4 weeks ago at 42p. Debt was rising and management not progressing the business, so I lost confidence. A buyout was likely the only way forward for shareholders but I’m surprised it was at such a premium. Well done to all who kept holding.
Good luck to everyone. I missed this good and proper.
congrats bunco.i also traded down over the last few months but was left with enough to enjoy todays news quite a lot. cureboy over on advfn also seems fairly pleased, so well done all who have stuck with it.
Congrats to all who stuck through to the sale!
If you’re wondering what to do with your well earned profits...wouldn’t another company sale wet your appetites??
Look no further than EUA (Eurasia Mining) FSP for over 9 months. Expecting final sale before June 20. Market cap of 700mil however selling easy to mine $140 Billion worth of PGM mine in the Urals. £7 million in the bank. UBS AND CITIC on a success-fee basis.

I have let a few shares go over past few months but still got 200k+ so after over 2 years invested a nice pay day has arrived... My original hopes we're much higher, but given the recent flatline and impact of covid I'm happy with the price agreed. Hope this price works for everyone else who has help long term.
Congratulations PHD holders. I got in and out a couple of years back. I honestly thought it would have been sooner for a TO, but that's life I guess.
very pleased with that premium.better than i expected.
Wow! Sat patiently for a couple of years and here it is! Best option based on the fact they have been going sideways. Probably explains why Dbay were happy to take a less hands on approach than they do elsewhere...
And as if by magic..............
ok i wasn't expecting that today.havent read the terms yet.gla
traveller i actually agree that trying to trade their way out isnt working. it may well do eventually (if the covid impact lessens) but for the time being i see it as as a T/O play for a modest premium if that is dbay's game. interesting to see if we get a TR1 after yesterday's big trade, although if it was dbay increasing ,that trade alone wouldn't have pushed them into the next bracket.
Still too much debt, a board that closed the door on previous t/o talks. Trying to trade their way out and it isn't working.
PHD is the elephant in the room and never recovered from the drop a few yrs back.
just musing on the 600.000 trade.it was an XOFF trade as per the stock exchange website (LSE's description as ordinary is a bit misleading). ie an off market trade probably between two parties, so a buy and a sell. now i suppose there are a number of possible candidtes as seller, but not that many likely ones for buyer( could be anybody of course,but realistically it's likely to be Dbay or lombard).lombard have 29.11 %, so it could be them as 600000 is just under 0.63%. however, if you had to bet i think you would have to go with Dbay. if that is correct does it make a T/O more likely?who knows. a T/O has been a common trope on here for a long time without anything happening.just musing of course.
thanks for that YHAL. i remain invested (i took some profits back at about 48p i think it was).im staying in the hope of a T/O, although if we get one in not expecting it to be at a great premium.indeed when there was a lot of talk about multiples of earnings and e.g. a minimum of 75p etc, i was pretty sceptical. i was hoping perhaps for 60/65p but think will have to settle for quite a bit less if we get a bid soon. of course we may not get a bid at all,so i may have to be patient.
