I can well imagine !
I agree that the next tier announcement is unlikely to be friendly for MARS.

Agreed, let the schnapps man drink Scotch

Should we perhaps ask them to put it into 2 languages or perhaps an enigma friendly pdf format ?

That does sound an improvement on the scotch eggs the media seem obsessed with !

Excellent link, now I can enjoy Scotch, not schnapps.
Good to see MERC holding up at these levels though, most encouraging.

What you keeping hold of, your std ? !

Fairdealer
You nailed it !
It must be the Tesla club, no question.....

Next time we meet for schnapps in your wardroom I will concentrate on the "E" word, for it is that coding machine we need

Additionally Edison have just issued a bullish note and even Warwick audio is mentioned in it ! Concepta or whatever it is now called is only 1% of their portfolio 14.6% of the business, so it will have to do something really special to move the dial.
Ndreams & OxGene are the 2 largest holdings.

December 15 from 14.00 to 15.30 Merc are doing a presentation of the year in review, which companies they bought/sold etc, I just received an email from them, you need to register first, of course.

As far as my lobster is concerned it could be a golden sovereign !
I note that Northern vct's have yet to announce an intention to fund raise this year whereas many/most vct's have or are already raising.
Surprising as the fees they charge are pretty rich, but there is doubtless a reason why no action there yet.

I have just re read that rns & I suspect you are correct.
Interesting days ahead I guess ?

A very satisfactory move today.

Indeed, but I'll keep the Koss for the time being thanks all the same, let's not be too hasty eh ?

You were lucky to find a berth at Scarborough big enough for your Schnapps palace for a spot of R&R.

This is the most encouraging statement I have read from Merc since I have been following it.
Very pleased to se the maiden divi announced.

A great spot, thanks.
Does this mean that HSBC have bailed out and BNP have stepped in on the old terms ?

Very succinct summary, I did see today that Peel Hunt are tipping 3 stocks to double, one of which is MARS.
But as they have corporate interests involved....?

Thanks, most useful.

Definitely direct ownership by MERC, so EIS funds have extra over and above that 22.4% ?
Unusual for a MERC stock to have enough cash to buy another company, perhaps things really are improving in Henley on Arden ?!

In March last year MERC held 18.2% in Concepta, but how much is on their balance sheet & how much is in their EIS managed funds I am struggling to ascertain, but yes, they do appear to have some.
