The Mission Group Share Price (TMG)

Agree with that. However, the board bear responsibility for letting debt grow and leave the company open to such opportunistic attempts. Under Peter Fitzwilliam the debt had been gradually eroded over many years of prudence. My wish was that they carried and and eliminated the debt entirely, although the dividends were welcome. Instead they chose generous divs, and ill considered acquisitions. I hope lessons have been learned, I believe companies should always be aware of the cyclical nature, and buffer against such events.

Rant over, ta ta Timid Bison

Thank heavens that waste of space complicated bid from BB has gone away today. If they could offer 35p in cash then they could be taken seriously. Their current efforts of a reverse takeover are rather misleading and silly in reality.

All depends how management handle the debt. If it starts creeping up further, the SP will no doubt be hammered and todays rejected offer price will seem a long way away. Time will tell, bit I suspect the lack of even a moments consideration for either deal might suggest the directors didn't fancy losing their jobs rather than what was in the best interest of shareholders long term.

Why would you think you can buy TMG for half the price in six months. TMG business is robust enough to get out of its debt issues, the business is sound and in a different league to this opportunist outfit. He ho. We all have different views, which makes life more interesting so long as it does not lead to WAR! The human race needs to find world peace.

Anyway good luck here with your investment. Us PI’s need some luck to beat the greedy b******* that run PLC companies.

Hopefully this will flush out another bid. If not get on and get made clear as the uncertainty is not good for TMG.
