RE: New visitors to this forum: re the BPC/CERP merger8 Jul 2020 07:33
Star, respect your research. I’m certainly not happy with the share price. But as a Lth who has stuck with this company for over 8+ years I think it perfectly reasonable to ask my company for more information about the future direction and strategy of a merged company given that it is such a radical change of course. A radical change so far away from what I have supported and financed. Some will say trust the Board. I have. For years. When things looked extremely bleak. When the company went into long term communication blackout. That improved over the past year with what looked like a new spirit of openness. And now? Back to nothing aside from a left field RNS that poses more questions than answers. It might be a good deal. But explain why/how is all I’m asking. I think I, and others, deserve that. But I’m resigned to not getting it so I’m voting ‘no’. This is not deramping. It is extreme frustration. Seem to recall another In/out vote a couple of years back where it was ‘trust us we know best’. And look how that went! Not sure a BPC ‘protest’ vote will have the same outcome. But why not eliminate risk and communicate strategy? Not sure I deserve to be called a deramper or, indeed,a ramper. I am simply frustrated at being treated as essentially a cash cow to finance ..... what?
