Sever credit crunch has its benefits allegedly..BSG, a leading provider of clearing, settlement, payment and financial risk management solutions to the telecommunications industry, today announces the repurchase of $2.3 million of its senior debt at a discount to face value. At 26 March 2009, total outstanding senior debt stood at $86.7 million. Greg Carter, CEO of Billing Services Group, said: "The ongoing disruption in the credit markets has again enabled BSG to tactically repurchase another tranche of its senior debt at less than the issuance price. The Company continues to reduce its interest expense, its leverage and pursue all other means to create and maximize shareholder value."

Values Ridge at £63Mns or 68p/share. http://www.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&cb=1238051093&article=37029188

After a stellar rise from start of session. Could be an idea to cream off the profit and run remainder buying back after any correction. TRC has stabilised for now after the appraisal of the egm result and its implications. The Board of HRCO must surely be a little less confident of the outcome of any future egm here.

The best has been seen for today in my books.. The harsh reality that shareholders will have to wait for a few more hurdles to be jumped before the gravy train is given the green flag. So lock in those profits today and consider selling while the initial egm euphoria continues, and churn profits on any weakness, run remaining stock for a roller coaster ride..

Now that TRC has fallen prey to a shareholder revolt. Looks like HIRCO share price has risen in sympathy. Follow the return of assets trend and force the Board to release shareholder value.

The board of directors (the "Board") of Ishaan Real Estate plc ("Ishaan" or the "Company") announces today that it intends to return up to GBP18.6m to Shareholders, being the holders of ordinary shares of GBP0.01 each in the capital of the Company (" the Ordinary Shares"). This will be effected by way of a tender offer, a summary of which is set out below (the "Tender Offer"). Full details of the Tender Offer, including the terms and conditions on which it is being made, are set out in a circular, which is being sent to holders of ordinary shares today (the "Circular"). The Tender Offer is subject to approval by Shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting to be held on 17 April 2009 (the "Extraordinary General Meeting" or the "EGM").

The egm went the petitioners way. Now is the uphill task of disposing the assets in a property averse world, in an orderly manner, meaning those assets that are easily offloaded will go first. There are question marks over the legitimacy of the disposal of some assets and the repatriation of funds from India on the sale of those assets. There are a number of possible contractual ltigation claims which will outstrip the current market cap if instigated and prove successful. With a passed resolution to buy back up to 70% of the issued shares, this number being the near maximum in order to keep within the listings rule of not less than 25% of the shares being held in public hands. The nav of £1.4/share is only a book calculated value, but now the assets have to be disposed off in an orderly fashion, this is going to prove a tad difficult task in the current economic climate. The Directors also have a mandate to review its investment policy. It could well be members will have to wait some considerable time before the "gravy" is served up. But the egm result should cause the share price to respond well until the full implications of the egm results dawn on the market.

Commenting on the latest orders, Stephen Green, CEO of Galleon Holdings, said: "It is always good to break into new territories and work with new clients, such as Unichips. Pepsico is an active partner and provides us with regular business. We are particularly excited about breaking into a new market the size of India where the premiums and promotions business is just starting to evolve."

Mr J C du Preez bought up 1.5Mns shares recently. Mixed messages being delivered by the Board. Recent numbers stack up well and I believe the share price reacted the wrong way to the numbers.

At 15p/share will value TIG at some £97Mns on current issued share cap, that is some market cap !!!

Of up to 15p may be announced. Early stage talks. http://www.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&cb=1237878105&article=36992282&symbol=L%5ETIG

Daintree Holding Ltd looks like it is moving in for the kill. Since mid March it has ammassed a substantial 8% stake, taking direct control of 2.522Mns of the voting shares representing 8.54% of the issued share capital (isc). This looks like the TMC days of independence look marked.

Looks like Christ Iliev wants to be in control of the trough. He bought in 3Mns shares in the last couple of sessions paying between 26 and 26.1p/share. Might just be a wink to follow suit.

Having run on from 4.50 on suggestions that the "tide had turned" might be a good time to lock in those profits at current 8.3p levels and run remainder. There will be chances in the next sessions to churn earned profits and come back in on weakness and in any event run with the 80% profit earned in the week on this one .

All bets are off between WHI and BLUE. WHI has lked away from making any kind of offer for BLUE. Maybe EVOL may take a bite now!!! or go for WHI very incestuous but interesting. http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=2116122&source=RNS

We do not know the reasons why the proposed deal floundered. I am not sure that EVOL would complement WHI ops and if it did it would end up with having to deal with BLUE again. I have seen this with DGT recently another broker that was on the receiving end of a defunct offer from Daniel Stewart. So there looks like a will for consolidation but not the stomach at the moment

Hi kitchens. I take it you mean that is Blue Oar restricted from making an offer for WHi within six months, the answer is that BLUE is not prevented from turning stalked to stalker and poach WHI at any time from here on in. If all things ceteris paribus WHI cannot bite at BLUE again within the next 6 months, but see conditions in the rns where they could if certain events take place.

All offer talks ended for now http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=2116138&source=RNS

Slightly improved since last announcement. Now a done deal.. http://www.londonstockexchange.com/LSECWS/IFSPages/MarketNewsPopup.aspx?id=2115774&source=RNS
