Oh what is this
Pesky retail not doing what they should, they should be selling in fear ...not buying he stock...oh heck.. maybe a change in strategy required....
Just hoping this is the tipping point. In the old days this movement would be considered noise :O. Come on Nova you can, doooo it!
SteveV. The company isn't 70% owned in France. It's 70% Traded in France.
The shareholders make the decisions.

I never stated that a TO was my preferred option, I said I was comfortable either way - I’m certainly not ramping to try and make it happen, ain’t naive enough to think BB chat makes the slightest difference!!
The big boys will be looking - for the very same reasons your invested yourself, plus operational ‘wants’. Never said it was going to happen, but to dismiss the idea given what we see in front of us would be daft. Saying it will happen (which I have not) is no more educated a guess than saying it will not. It remains a distinct possibility, given the evidence (much of it circumstantial) in front of us.
As for France blocking it, don’t see that as being an issue as long as supply is guaranteed (even though they don’t buy from NCYT and appear to ignore it!!).
As stated previously, my preferred option would be a big contract win, SP up to £12 and THEN negotiate a TO. However, the idea that you can pick and choose when (or if) you are to be the subject of a TO is farcical.
I am not saying it will happen, just that we should not be surprised if it does.
Have FUN
Something happening!!!
Move from French to US listing?
Surely if the French blocked it, we'd just delist France...
Interesting : volume spike in France
Don't think the French would allow a takeover.
I do wonder though how it works being joint owned. Are we 70% French and 30% British? Does that mean the French have
final say in all things?
Naewise : You have to consider that not everyone who has shares is of an age where waiting is a long term consideration.
I for one would jump at the takeover option providing it was a sensible offer.
Tend to agree with that, Bluelight - moreover, one shouldn't underestimate the French connection here; they hate foreign T/Os of 'their' companies and with GM being a dedicated business builder, anyway, the odds look very much against it.
Ergo, any hostile move would have to be at a substantial premium to gain any traction with a good deal more than £12 ps as a starting point, I'd say... - sasa.
Come on folks lets not get carried away, there's no takeover. As much as I'd love it to be true, everytime we get a good day that rumour resurfaces. I'm happier for the price to jumo on the fact we are massively undervalued, then lets have a takeover from a £12 starting point, not £8
A buisness within a buisness ...France ....UK ....Primerdesign .microgen......
.........novacyt ....
RBMInvest I'd be quite happy with a takeover at a 100% premium or so I just do not think one is imminent. I've been invested in here a similar time and every month I've read posters saying TO going to happen, bound to happen etc etc etc because they would like it to happen. Just because you wish for it does not make it a likely event, given all the times when Novacyt would have looked attractive for a large player to takeover over the past year I do not see this as being the optimum time for them. Happy to be proved wrong just do not see it as being an imminent event and whilst I want share price to go up I do not want people to invest on ramping to then lose money. I'd recommend people tentatively invest in Novacyt at the mo based on fundamentals not based on TO hopes, currently I'm a hold as although I think it is materially undervalued there are significant levels of uncertainty with futute of Novacyt and economy as a whole.
Price looking strong
T/O looks likely - will be fun when they let it go
I imagine quite a few shareholders would jump at a return from a TO instead of being permanently shrouded in smoke and mirrors. They probably realise a long term holding is by far the more sensible option but hey, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush and there are hosts of other exiting options 'out there'. If we talk enough about a TO, perhaps Mr Market may really think something is in the wind and the SP will react accordingly :)
BRod, not a short term holder, been in nearly 12 months. As for wanting a return, of course that’s a yes.. Why are you invested, if not for a return?
Feel free to disregard the signals in front of you, but just ignoring the possibility of a TO just because it’s not your preferred option could maybe be a bit naive.
Best to look at all scenarios and plan accordingly.
Oh rest of post not posted!
Said _saw what I posted re T/0 but the rest of the group I talk to all believe a T/O is on the cards. K
what I posted last night. However the group I chat to offboard all think the opposite and have been saying it to me for several weeks. K
Ha Bing. Well you saw
You never know, Gm may sell up cos he's had enough of the 5hitty emails, lol
Just short term holders hoping and wanting to make a quick buck. GM planning inorganic and organic expansion, expresseed desire for MCap status not yet achieved and UK/French governments got legislation out blocking some of the big boys taking advantage at the moment.
