Hi Champ
Firstly good points made by Joesoap.
Business is business, but in this case, as a very long time holder I can explain a little.
The issues that were caused by the collapse of Woodford Investments rattled on at TRX and the BOD tried to arrange for the least damaging and dilutive avenue, that was a loan from MidCap finance. That deal was not the best.
In November last year the company declared that it had breached a covenant of the MidCap agreement which resulted in ,
A) TRX having to pay back £5.5m they had recieve as part of the loan deal.
B) The share price plummeted to .45p so many LTH like myself either bailed or bought up the shares to lower our averages.
I for one bought a few million shares to get my average down to about 5p, with the belief that TRX would come good and it did bounce back to 1.7p. So many recouped losses and didn't feel to bad.
Now just recently the share has weaved and dived based on different news from the company but the range was just below 0.5p and 0.7p roughly. Now here's the bit that stung.
The company announced that they had agreed to supply a top ten global healthcare supplier with a White Label Product line. Great piece of business worth many millions in the years to come, the share price rose from 0.7p back towards 1.2p. A week later they announced the Share Placing at 0.25p, that was a real kick in the bollards, so to speak.
So to answer your doubts about the board, yes it was all a bit quick and contrived but I have come to realise it had to happen so the Institutional Investors would play ball and they are the ones putting up the big numbers.
I wasn't able to buy any of the Primary Bid shares but organised funding a few days later so I could at least buy some if the price dropped near to the placing, which I have done.
The company needed that cash and as an investor I understand the risks, only speculate with what you can afford and do your research as best you can. I've always believed in the TRX product lines and the BOD have never been blatantly bad to their investors.
They are now in the glorious position of having the cash, having the demand and being able to double production, double or treble the turnover and reach a point where they are making profits, that why I'm still here and still invested.
I do hope that this explains why you should not be to fearful at this point in time. Give it 12 months and if you are still not convinced take whatever profit your investment has made.
