"the doomsayers were saying last Friday that those who bought into the placing would be dumping their millions of shares this week"

Who said that?

So when's the next dilution (or "fundraise" as they put it) coming? August?

Well tradey, I just console myself with the knowledge that my 77p average is far better than your 400p abomination.

Sorry, erm, a mere 20p and 2% of your portfolio, wink wink.

Looks like we may be at the start of another sucker rally. Just the latest of many, trapping retail mugs for years now.

"Oh dear it's just comical. Even Hexam has told you that you are wrong"

No tradey dear, he has done no such thing. Hexam has very constructively expressed an opinion. What he has not done is present his opinion as an absolute binary as you do, to try to control the discussion. Nor does he chuck his toys out and resort to abuse at the slightest indication that opinions might differ. Best think about that! 😉

Bravo Hexam - thank-you for a mature and measured take on things. Glad to see that you observe the numerical juggling, the effects of all the stage-managing, and are wise to the plod tactic of trying to conflate that with fraudulent representation.

A little bit of research into why organisations take their Companies House reporting to the wire is revealing, some benign (report compilation technicalities), some practical (kitchen-sinking bad news) and some more disturbing (going concern, debt covenant topics, statutory status of subsidiaries such as PLT). For me, it is plausible that it could be any (or many) of these.

"Because what I have posted covers off what you are asking

You claimed you hadn't seen group accounts. You claimed audited accounts were stage managed. You claimed UNAUDITED accounts, which can only be filed on that basis due to group accounts, are somehow more insightful

They aren't

You have no explanation for any of the above.

If you are so bothered, contact IR and ask them when the accounts will be filed.

Nobody apart from you seems to care"

Thanks tradey, I'll take your advice and chuck it straight in the bin. Instead, I'll wait for the Companies House accounts to be posted. A longer submission, a bit more to it, overall more insightful. I think you need to have a lie down.

Still won't answer it... wonder why 😉

"By calling the AUDITED accounts stage managed you are claiming both the directors and auditors are in breach of their fiscal duties."

No such claim made whatsoever. What nonsense. What I (and a lot of others) would like to see is the "defluffed" version, with none of the hyperbole about being Britain's best loved digital powerhouse phenomenon we're back yeah baby.

I'm asking you again: why are you downplaying being able to view them?

That's lovely, tradey. I'll still much prefer the Companies House version, rather than the stage-managed version.

He seems very nervous about people being able to view the Companies house accounts for the year up to 28 February 2025. Incredible that we're approaching the end of February 2026 and we still don't really know the group numbers for the year ending February 2025. The management doesn't seem eager to release them, tradey very much doesn't want us to see them... draw your own conclusions.

Not sure why you're downplaying the filing of the accounts, tradey. They tell quite a lot. Why are you so against people being able to read them and make their own minds up?

"It seems your meltdown as usual as already happened bonscott

It's a simple question, which accounts is he referring to

Plc accounts were released ages ago.

Subsidiary accounts are no big deal"

Take it easy tradey, you'll have a funny turn. Save your fury for the weekend. We all know that the audited company accounts submitted to Companies House tell a lot more than the smoke and mirrors reporting you're referring to.

"Dare we mention that filing accounts late on companies house is a criminal offence and the fca can suspend trading for this offence?"

Coasty, you've really done it now. There'll be a meltdown at the prospect. After all, you literally claimed beyond all doubt that the company is heading for suspension. No, wait, you've said that it has already been suspended. Oh, heck, let's just claim absolutely anything on the back of your question.

"What is difficult to understand"

The 95% fall in the share price in five years without any kind of defence. The halving of revenue. The notion that £5M of marketplace revenue can replace £250M of lost revenue from the brands. The repeated instances of dilution to cover losses and service the debt wall. The squandering of £400M capital in 5 years. The opening and shuttering of multiple facilities at a staggering loss. The salaries, bonuses and share awards given in the face of all of this, and the total disdain for regular shareholders. And so, what is most difficult to understand, is the endless rose-tinted view and endorsement of the above actions.

Doesn't make sense. Why dump millions of shares at a loss, only to then partake of the equity raise?

Well done everyone. We all love a bit of dilutey goodness, don't we?

Smells like death spiral financing to me. All because they can't control their costs and can't help blasting money all over the place.

"small debt"

But it isn't a small amount of debt, is it? £175M loan at eye watering rates. £243M total debt according to Yahoo Finance.

How does £35m clear this "small debt" which isn't?

If only they would just stop blasting money all over the place...

"So much false anger it's almost funny"

Nowhere near as false as your new identity and claimed holdings, tradey. 100% of your portfolio at 400p average miraculously becomes 2% of your portfolio at 20p average, after your old alias gets banned. How convincing👌
