VEC.L Share Price (VEC)

Vectura Group PLC - Chippenham-based pharmaceutical company - 165 pence-per-share takeover offer from Philip Morris International Inc receives 97% acceptances, including PMI's own 28% stake, by the original deadline of Thursday. The deadline has now been extended until further notice. Vectura is expected to delist on October 19.

The recent caper with CO2 supplies just goes to prove what I said about selling out to Johnny Foreigner!
UK down the pan again.
My VEC now all sold, with much regret.
GLTA.

Done and dusted then! No Knight in Shining Armour appeared, so what happens to those shareholders that have not taken up the offer by 30th September? On with the motley etc , GLTA.

Anyone with a view as the whether to accept the offer at 165p? Apparently I have to decide by tomorrow whether to accept or decline the offer by PMI.

As a long term holder since the days of Skye, I agree with others who want this to stay UK! It has appalled me for many decades that UK cannot or will not invest in itself and prefers to sell out to other countries. What this does, to state something that Basil Fawlty would call Bleedin' Obvious, is to make a short term "gain" and then all the long term benefits and profits go abroad. Other governments would just not allow this, unlike ours which seems to encourage it. Maddening.
GLTA and let's hope for a UK Knight in Shining Armour to rescue it, and us. Fat chance!
