Yep ACCENTURE will put offer any day from now... lets see 150-175
EXPECT a bounce and close around 110 ... unless another HOLDING RNS this could get around 120
Let them sell... soon they will be back to buy only at HIGHER price...
People selling don't realise Accenture is interested
If I were the board I wouldn't accept less than£2. Ultimately we dont know if they would sell part of it or all of it.
Top crew gone so MONEY saving all ready started.. Expect another HOLDING RNS...
No cause for concern. The company was weighed down with dead wood so the pruning can only aid its general health. Corner turned.
Going BLUE....
Some buys are showing in RED... Draft what would be the offer?
Donot panic, the key for me is takeover price , sorrell battling accenture, its obvious the new board can not only turn this around but also keep refusing any lowball offers. This would be sorrell's victory taking away saatchi. A perso al victory trophy for himself
this should be over 110 -120... did go over 110 and will be back up...
How dumb ppl are, quite obvious offer incoming in my opinion
Peanuts for sorrell or accenture to pick up. The old farts leave and basic pis panic. Crackers
Clears the deck off the old farts
Interested to takeover on Google news
Its irrelevant
Dont hold but this could cause a fall on the open...watching with interest
would have to be a significant premium I reckon, firstly cuz its Saatchi, probably a bidding war starting soon, and 5wk high was like 4 quid.
Wrong board haha!
sold out to soon?
The big attraction for Accenture is said to be M&C Sport and Entertainment, M&C’s thriving marketing and sponsorship division. M&C also has its flagship creative agency, below-the-line firm Lida, its international network of partly-owned agencies and some other niche businesses. But sport and entertainment is where much of the action is now in advertising and media and Accenture apears to think that buying M&C’s operation would give it a valuable leg up.Accenture, which now owns creative agencies Droga5 (in the US and UK), the UK’s Karmarama, The Monkeys in Australia and Rothco in Ireland among several others, would have some hard choices to make in a deal for the whole of M&C, not least about people.Maybe it intends just to bid for the sport and entertainment division. M&C shareholders, sitting on big losses (a year ago the whole company was valued at £400m), would no doubt be grateful for any Accenture move.
