MERCK DEAL10 Dec 2018 14:59
Over past few days I have invested ÂŁ11400 into the share. Not because I have money to burn but because I no what is around the corner.
As some of you know my job involves working on multi Million pound contracts. The biggest contract I have put in place was valued at ÂŁ100m over 4 years. Why am o telling u this? Because I no how contracts or agreements work.
Let’s look at the agreement / contract that was signed by PYC and MERICK.
1) they had been working with each other since 2012 but only just signed the multi year contract in late 2017.
2) As much as this is an agreement or contract it’s also a long term partnership. U don’t invest 6 years of time working with each other to have a one year contract. There will be many years just as the RNS states. MULTI YEAR.
3) PYC are reluctant to tell us when the contract or agreement commenced. I get that. However having looked into this further it’s clear when this contract commenced. I will hazzard a guess and say 2nd January 2018. How do I know this? Well the MINIMUM value of this agreement / contract is €500,000 for the year 2018. It says so in RNS. If it had started in December then the value would have been pro rata over 13 month period.
4) The contract or agreement has not been terminated why do I know this. There would have been a clause written into this agreement / contract given a specific number of days to terminate the contract. Say 30 days or 60 days. As this is fundental information and the fact we are in 10 December and no RNS has been made public then the contract / agreement continues.
5) the value of the contract is a MINIMUM €500,000 in the first year. This is key. Firstly you never have a contract value in the first year exceeding that of the second and third year. Therefore the value of the second and third year will exceed the first year. Secondly MINIMUM allows MERCK auto insentivise PYC meaning the value of the first year will be greater than €500,000 in my opinion. Wouldn’t surprise me if there was stepping stones that PYC had to meet for that value to increase to say €750,000 the €1m. All in my opinion but I have done contracts of a similar nature.
6) now is the time to buy cause these prices won’t be along for much longer.
