What is going on ?12 Apr 2023 08:49
Morning All,
As per the RNS on the 22nd of March the General Meeting to sanction the sale of IMM to AAG will happen on the 26th of April OR before. They have signed an SPA which the RNS on the 22nd March states …..
conditional binding sale and purchase agreement (the "SPA") with Acumen Advisory Group LLC ("AAG")
The conditional part being approval by PFP shareholders. So in my limited knowledge of legal terms does it mean AAG are committed to buying IMM ?
What is the long stop date mentioned, no mention of a General Meeting now to approve the sale , unless that is what they meant !
As the SPA has been signed the only conclusions I can come to are ……
A) The BOD are totally useless and couldn’t organise a pee up in a brewery
Or
B) The BOD are trying to combine the sale of IMM and maybe the RTO into one General Meeting.
Or
C) Negotiations are ongoing between PFP, AAG, TZM and the Mozambique Government.
The BOD have shown over the last couple of years to be professional and thorough, we can rule out A).
Quicker to get the sale approved then finalise the RTO when the target has been identified or have a resolution covering any future RTO in the meeting. I am ruling out B).
That leaves us with C), why do you think all the delays have been since December, why do you think we needed £500,000 when £2,000,000 was within our grasp, legal fees for AAG to negotiate a deal ? Don’t forget AAG also engage DLA Piper, which also has considerable experience in these types of disputes.
A) 0%. Chance
B) 10%. Chance
C) 90% Chance
I am not saying the negotiations will be successful but I am convinced they are on going.
Can anyone else come up with a plausible reason for these delays since the original December deadline ?
Hold on tight and you have got to be in it to win it !
