Irae Future27 Jun 2018 04:05
The BOD (the key here is Andrew Wright the CEO/company secretary) have delivered. They have provided two projects that will give the shareholders shares in each project in specie. That is for each Irae (NYO) share you own (post consolidation yes there will be a 1:50 consolidation), you will get one UBE share. And for each Irae share that you have, you will get one GM share (I am not certain of the numbers but the percentages are fixed). AND YOU WILL RETAIN YOUR IRAE SHARES. You will have 3 different share holdings.
Both UBE and GM have to list. Initially both will list on the NEX market with the view of stepping up to LSE in the future. I estimate that the price UBE should list at will be 20 times last traded price. I also estimate that the price that GM lists should be 3 times last traded price. These estimated listing prices include allowing for consolidation. Based on the share price that NYO languished for a considerable period, UBE should give 6 times and GM even par. The BOD have delivered in spades.
When UBE lists, you can get cash them up or stay with UBE. When GM lists you can also cash out or stay.
NYO was a basket case going back several years. BigDish was to be a saviour. The old board was disposed of and a caretaker board (it was a caretaker board to be there purely until the BigDish RTO was completed) was installed. BigDish funded NYO to streamline the RTO. At the beginning of the BigDish deal, the ASX changed their rules on RTOs. It proved too difficult to RTO BigDish into NYO. This left NYO in an even bigger mess as it had increased its debt substantially. The Peterhouse deal mark 1 was a soft option but without a project to carry on with and funds to go back to the market, it was probably the only option. That deal was rejected by the shareholders. Peterhouse deal mark 2 was a horrendous opportunistic deal which fortunately was shut down. Essentially NYO was delisted, in debt, a billion plus shares on the books and no project, and no advisor and no broker AND NO HOPE OF ANYTHING HAPPENING. NYO was dead in the water.
Please remember although we think that the BOD should be doing something, the reality was that the BODs hands were tied and it was the circumstances that caused the problems.
I introduced a wheeler dealer to NYO (Andrew ) on another deal which did not proceed. That W/D introduced UBE to Irae. The time frame was very short and with the very limited funds available, the UK retail shareholders could not be catered for in the RI. UBE underestimated the work they had to have in place for the deal to be completed. This prevented the BOD going to brokers so the deal nearly fell over. The deal was saved and it was found to be better for UBE to list than for NYO to relist. Because UBE is endeavouring to be a credible crypto it has been swamped with red tape in getting permissions, bank accounts and procedures and security. This has resulted in delays. Listing is still planned in October.
