https://www.recruitment-international.co.uk/blog/2018/08/dbay-to-acquire-harvey-nash-group-in-a-98-pounds-7-pence-million-cash-acquisitionhttps://www2.staffingindustry.com/Editorial/Daily-News/Harvey-Nash-strikes-deal-to-be-acquired-by-largest-shareholder-46988. 2articles.one mentions day had representative on board so my previous comments that that might make a t/o by them difficult were obviously wide of the mark.this is just out of interest of course.
well wouldn't argue with that farantahir.fact is we don't know.i will post the link to the Harvey nash article later but its really just out of interest we don't know whats going to happen here but TU will be very interesting and possibly the catalyst for some s.p action independent of dbay etc
Mainly aimed at Pete - I hate rampers lol...
To be honest, a lot of us have been accumulating recently - 35p a share is an absolute bargain if you have a long term view. Dbay may simply see the same.
well i don't know about other posters,but I'm certainly not convinced,although i do think its the most likely outcome.and yes i was very confident that fsp would go through, so I'm certainly no oracle.but fact wise we do know that dbay have been steadily increasing and MAY still be doing so time will tell.
It's funny how everyone seems convinced DBay is going to takeover the company. Just like everyone was convinced FSP would result in a offer being accepted.
Maybe, just maybe, DBay see value at the current share price with no view to take over the company. Given the ownership structure, a takeover isn't going to be easy anyway.
thanks
from memory it was completed in 2018 and they started in 2017 i think. i found a good link yesterday but haven't saved it.will look again tonight and post if i can find it again.
when did they do that to harvy nash and how long did it take?
DBay obviously have other II's and MM's hoovering up shares for them and then they just drop in and buy all that is there behind the scenes at 35p. Quite strange that Lombard or Rodney Potts, the BoD or other II's and MM's are not wanting part of the upturn or takeover price DBay will have to make to take it over, say 65p, which would be a steal and a crime if they got the PHD financials/IPR and other SaaS credentials for that price?
pretty much identical,even almost up to the timing.incidentally not suggesting we can draw any meaningful comparisons but interesting to see what happened with Dbay and harvey nash. dbay got to just over 26% before making an offer .took it private in the end. different here of course with LO in the frame.
just gone through the same as Friday.
although i read them out of interest, i normally find Pinkfish's posts over on ADVFN confusing,unclear and sometimes contradictory. however his post at 00.18am today (who posts at that time!) a bit more interesting than usual.perhaps worth a read.not saying i agree but i think it has some force.
I can do without the suspense.
Dbay are picking up the II's with 3% or less on the QT, they should be at 14-15% by end of month, then lets see what Potts and Lombard do? Plus will DBay make a bid or wait until they get 29.95%? Either way the TU in August has got to be good or this sp is going cheap at anything from 65p to 95p.
yes that makes a lot of sense ,bunco.particularly remembering the two very large almost simultaneous trades for about 2.65% each (i haven't checked back for exact figure). only one was disclosed by Dbay, but i think they must have been linked in some way, even if only informally.
I can't see that all these sells over the past 3 months at 35 are iis or pi's loosing confidence, as many of us have held for 18months or more and things are looking much better now than they have at any point in past 18months. Starting to think that dbay have been up to their multiple company trick again. We know that there have been a few iis that have sold out since FSP was cancelled. I reckon dbay may have purchased many of these shares through a number of companies (staying below the 3%) and are now drip-feeding them to the one entity. Reason for this method is to avoid price spike from takeover speculation which would arise from dbay all of a sudden having 15-20% of shares. Remember there were big sells which went through over past few months which didn't appear to all be accounted for, yet now we seem to have sells coming out of nowhere with no price impact. When shares are apparently changing hands with no spread then one explanation would be that they are being transferred between different companies within one group. I expect that over the next 2-3 weeks we'll start to see things play out... In the run up to year end we should see the trade volume improve.
cureboy i think I'm correct in saying that a little while ago you posted on ADVFN something to the effect that you understood phd were getting "fantastic"results in US. i can't find your post now so you may well not actually have said "fantastic"but something like that. apologies if I'm wrong, but just wondering if this is anything specific you could share , or just a general impression. hope you don't mind me asking.
Covid mitigated, FY20 in the bag, ARR growth, record new business levels and BePayd progress, I’m expecting a decent end of year update.
The August update will help us get some idea of progress. From 2019 backwards the updates have been on 28, 2, 22, 11 so no earlier than the 2nd.
what if they are happy keeping the price here so they can issue options about this area?
yes its all very odd in a way.apart from what are obviously Dbay trades and whoever/whatever took the other large trade at the same time as Dbays penultimate one, hardly any other trades take place.there would have been others involved to some extent in last thursdays trades, as Dbays increase didnt fully account for that volume, but by and large it looks like Dbay and AN Other having the show to themselves. potentially a good signi mo unless you are looking for a very high buy out figure which i think is unlikely,but who knows
running out of volume to buy. Slooooooow.
Its because they have the money and contacts working on their behalf and probably phoning around for shares. I wouldn't take any notice of the buy-sell indicators on LSE or nearly anywhere else. Sells shown as buys and visa-versa.
Last night's rns certainly highlights the arranged trades dbay are involved in. They increased by around 400k shares, yet there was only a tiny fraction of that traded as buys on the 9th July. All other trades were at 35p... Is it really legit for someone to be able to buy shares cheaper and in much greater volume than is available on the open market? And also for both the buy and sell side of the transactions to go through at the exact same price?
I have confidence that dbay aren't fools and are here to make cash, which in theory should benefit us all... But it's how much of the pie can they get away with taking on the cheap and at the moment they seem to have means of taking fair chunks... Time will tell!
Couple of new stories added to the news section of the proactis website today... Including the signing of port of Amsterdam... The European team appear to be doing well under the new strategy, just need news of some good signings in the US now.
