Actually quite happy to see a buy-back notice go through this morning.
Since I can't see them buying back shares at a price higher than what the offer price will be as that would destroy value for everyone.
Roll on Tuesday.

Hmm what has caught my attention is the fact the buy-back hasn't been in action since that last takeover/merger offer extension announcement, which is very unusual given there has been plenty of volume for the company to buy it back if it wanted to.
So I think its crunch time now, either the offer is happening this time round or its going to be dropped.
The company probably knows the ball-park figure that's being discussed & that might stop them from being able to trade now.
Sadly that doesn't really give me a sense of whether the potential offer figure is above or below the current share price !
Good Luck All

💯 strong buy and not much else I can say. My opinion only
Hi IP3LY,
As I said, I've already bought 2 lots of shares for the dividend.
I can see this being pushed even higher ahead of next Thursday even with Schroders selling out as fast as they can.
Just think next Tuesday is going to be really interesting to see what happens (or doesn't)

@LOTM: Despite dividend being 55p - this will drip to sub 590-600 on XD - so you will have your chance to buy at £6 (downside is you will not pick up the Dividend)
Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
Been watching this quietly in the background.
Was hoping to be buying this around the £6 mark close to the Ex-dividend date, but that clearly isn't going to happen.
So I've bought a couple of parcels of it over the past few days ahead of it going ex-dividend on 14th December for the hefty amount of £0.559.
Of particular interest to me was the shortness of the last "PUSU" extension granted on 5th December, these have often been for a month or at least a couple of weeks. This one was for just 1 week (like the last one in actual fact as well) but I can't help thinking its been done deliberately ahead of the Ex-D date.
So they can announce the offer & have the dividend included in the amount that shareholders are to receive ! (seen this happen quite often on other shares previously)
Will only find out if I'm right or not next Tuesday the 12th December.
