RE: Placing at a big premium7 Oct 2022 16:38
Well OBD really need the share price to rise to encourage shareholders to take up the open offer.
But the bulk of the raise £9.1M should be in the bag, subject to a vote, which usually gets passed.
If we take up the offer, it helps the company because OBD will get our cash.
If we buy in the market instead, it doesn’t help OBD, because the placing shares might not get taken up, unless our buying in the market pushes up the share price above the 20p, encouraging other shareholders to take up the offer shares.
I think the closing date is about 20th October, but don’t hold me to that, so we have a little time to make up our minds, or just buy in the market now if you believe OBD have a good future.
