In my humble opinion, it seems clear that David is seeking a seat on the Board of Directors, with the potential to bring in experienced professionals to help stabilise the situation and move things forward quickly—before the current Board causes any further damage.

Let’s not forget that many of us, as shareholders, hold more equity than the current BOD members themselves. I believe both David and Rob are monitoring the bulletin board closely and will take appropriate action when the time is right.

The most important thing now is not to panic or allow the current BOD to continue unchecked. They’ve had more than enough chances—after all, even a cat only has so many lives.

Jimi we all need your BIG NO VOTE here.

There are alternative funding options available, but these cannot be disclosed until after the General Meeting. If the resolutions are voted down, those options will be revealed.

This is a time to remain patient and not allow ourselves to be intimidated by the current Board of Directors. Ask yourself one simple question: Who led us into this situation? And now, instead of taking accountability, they are attempting to scare shareholders into submission.

The Board has still not acknowledged that we are in this position due to their repeated failure to act professionally and responsibly.

"The RNS appeared to be a clear attempt by the Board to pressure shareholders into voting in favour by instilling fear and uncertainty."

Hi Slacker,

Just checking in—can we count on your support with your 100 shares at the upcoming GM? Every vote truly does make a difference, and your backing would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Dear Robert,

Several of us have been working diligently behind the scenes to encourage both large and small shareholders to vote NO to all resolutions at the upcoming General Meeting.

Consider the significant dilution of our holdings—up to 4 billion shares. As small private investors, we risk having virtually no influence over how the GDR Board of Directors (BOD) manages the company going forward. Their performance over the past five years has been deeply disappointing, and their communication with shareholders has been minimal at best.

It’s time to draw a line. We can no longer accept vague promises or token gestures. We've supported the BOD through multiple capital raises, but the returns have been poor and the accountability lacking. We now need real change—and a stronger voice.

Please share your thoughts on the bulletin board and let us know whether we can count on your support. Many of us, including yourself, have backed the current BOD in the past. But now, there is growing support for our major shareholder, David, and we are eager to see what he can bring to the table.

This is a crucial moment for all shareholders to stand up and demand better governance, transparency, and results.

Rpger I don't think Allenby client would have been allocated shares yet, as my order is still pending allocation. 9am GM would mean I need to leave around 3 or 3.30

Jimi Thanks very much. I m try to get good feeling about it. Hoping crossing fingers and legs, that we will win it.

Jimi which way r u voting with ur 20 Millions votes?

Welcome Come on aboard Roger

Baz and All Lets wait for David to come back with his plans. We still have time on our hands to vote against.

If below comes through we all be maillaires

@genedriveplc

#GDR:#LSE #Genedrive +

The one analyst offering a 12 month price target expects Genedrive PLC share price to rise to 85.00 in the next year from the last price of 0.235.

Jimi Thanks for that, as I was not aware.

Roger with respect this is different kettle of fish.

Team, I’d like to add a further point of concern. If the resolutions are passed and Allenby clients—being the largest shareholders—act together to take the company private, they would only be required to pay the highest price they’ve paid in the past 12 months. Based on current information, that figure would be 0.20p, and unfortunately, there would be very little that private investors could do to prevent it. I highlight this issue by referencing what happened with Synairgen, where THF took the company private with very little warning.

To All Shareholders,

I’d like to take a moment to share some thoughts and raise a few important questions regarding the upcoming vote and the future direction of our company.

If we were to hear directly from David regarding his intentions, I believe many of us would be inclined to support him, particularly in rejecting the proposed issuance of 4 billion additional shares. Think about it—would someone who has invested their own hard-earned money, reportedly over £1 million and now holding more than 10% of the company’s shares, act in a way that would jeopardize that investment? Unlikely.

Personally, I would feel more confident placing my trust in David than in the current Board of Directors. This is not a criticism of any individual on the board, but over the years they have often appeared selective with the information they provide, which raises concerns about transparency.

Consider this: would Alleby have committed £3.2 million if they were relying on the same limited information we, as private investors, have been given? It's highly doubtful. David, like us, is a shareholder—he stands to lose as much as we do. That gives me confidence that his actions are aligned with our interests. If he had made an offer to the board, why wasn’t an RNS (Regulatory News Service) announcement issued to inform shareholders of it?

I therefore urge you to consider giving David a chance to present his vision and strategy. The current board has had over five years and numerous opportunities to turn things around. Despite this, they hold only a small number of shares collectively. In contrast, David has made a significant financial commitment to the company.

So, who would you rather place your trust in?

I strongly encourage all shareholders to vote against all proposed resolutions, in order to preserve what little value remains in our investment. Every vote matters—whether you're a large or small shareholder. Should the board fail to secure funding from Alleby, I am confident that David has a contingency plan in place.

Let us support the shareholder who has demonstrated the greatest commitment to this company. We’ve given the board enough chances. It’s time for a new direction.

David, over to you. I’m certain your fellow shareholders would welcome your thoughts and leadership on this critical matter.

Thank you.

Mort Anyone quietly accumulating a sizable stake almost always has a clear plan in mind. It’s rarely just a random buy; it’s about positioning for something bigger.

Old Dog - Only time will tell, as we all thought the same regarding our entries.

When there's uncertainty around an AGM, especially if key resolutions are potentially contested, the ask price (or broader market sentiment) often stalls or tightens until the outcome becomes clear.

1. A BID (Takeover Attempt)

If someone is accumulating a significant stake in a company, it's often a precursor to a takeover bid, especially if the buying is aggressive and persistent.

Clues:

Buying just below the mandatory takeover threshold (e.g., 19.9% in many jurisdictions).

Buying from the open market rather than through block deals — suggests stealth accumulation.

No clear public statement of intention yet.

Intent: Gain control or significant influence over the company — possibly to restructure, replace management, or unlock value (e.g., asset sales, spin-offs).

2. Blocking Resolutions at the AGM

Another possible motive is to acquire enough voting power to block certain resolutions or influence board decisions.

Clues:

Buying up to a level that gives them a blocking stake (e.g., >10% or >25% depending on the resolution thresholds in the company’s constitution).

Resolutions at the AGM may involve capital raising, director elections, remuneration, or strategic M&A moves.

Intent:

Prevent dilution.

Block board actions not aligned with their interest.

Possibly part of a proxy battle.

3. Strategic Stake or White Knight Positioning

The buyer could be a strategic investor (e.g., a competitor, partner, or activist) looking to either support or oppose an expected takeover or internal strategic move.

Intent:

Support a current board against a hostile bid (white knight).

Secure a future board seat.

Push for asset divestments, dividends, or operational changes.

4. Speculative Positioning Ahead of a Catalyst

Sometimes investors (especially hedge funds or insiders) will take large positions anticipating a near-term catalyst — such as:

Asset sales

Regulatory approvals

Strategic partnerships

Bids (hostile or friendly)

So, what’s more likely?

If the AGM is soon and the buying seems timed with that, then blocking or influencing key resolutions could be the immediate goal.

But if the buying is larger and sustained, a BID or control attempt could be the bigger picture. In many cases, blocking a resolution is the first move before launching a full bid.
