That’s a first for Victrex from my quick scan through their RNS history.
Brokers cost money to have on board, so it’s not done by a Company on a whim without reason(s), especially for their first time.
Could be just to spread the net wider to try and get some new institutional investors onboard……BUT…….it could be that they have a financing plan (rights issue, placing, etc) coming up soon that would need Broker(s) support. Or maybe it’s another reason?
Does feel like something is maybe brewing behind the scenes here, with this JB appointment and the absence of any CEO share buying in 2025 unlike his regular buying in the previous years.
Will be watching the direction of short(s) holding % in the coming weeks, as this may help guide on the upcoming expectations.
Victrex intriguingly continues on my watchlist.
