Just been introduced to this play. Looks interesting MCap of £100M that looks cheap considering they have a producing field in Aus 4000-6000 bopd. How they manage this FPSO and funding is key to success of this company. Interesting to see them on LSE with all their assets in Southern Hemisphere.

It’s almost impossible for any investor other than the Board and their circle to recover meaningful value here. The board will keep diluting to raise more equity and buy more shares in Sentiance until the major shareholders are diluted into oblivion. This was very obvious at the last EOGM when the BOD passed every motion no questions asked with significantly more shares in issue that they somehow and conveniently now represented. This will continue on and on unless of course the court case uncovers the internal mechanism that allowed this to happen in the first place.

Self appointed BOD. Come to save the company from harm, whilst their valiant leader is losing his court case - how sad that they’ve lost money. I bet not as much as investors have.

You can let go of your ankles now. All resolutions passed. 2.4 billion shares now in existence dilluted so that the BOD could ensure they had their votes in place by proxy (took hem 2-3 yrs to get that sorted). No interest in supporting Bonnier attempt to recover a whopping amount from Aaqua case versus Candy. Despite it could represent 40% of £150M, a significant boost to AAA. Instead more interested in destroying Bonnier for small loan he took from AAA. It has to be said the BOD don’t work for the shareholders they are working for a few HNW investors to take Rb down. End of.

On the face of it Sentiance is not a money making business. They are developers of AI and application of their technology to insurance companies and earlier in their history for IOT. What is their IP worth in the right hands, that is the value of the company. It could be far beyond a couple of million quid, but the more shareholders are kept in the dark, the less news there is, then they could be playing a great bluff to fool the shareholders and take the business for themselves ! So you can vote with resolutions or vote not to have them carried. It’s not like a shareholder could lose anything as the loses from 56p have been already done for most. They’ve dragged this out for so long. For a company with no money, AAA and their cash raises at the moment is just to line the pockets of the BOD. How much do they get paid per person £250k pa ? Not a bad deal if you can get in on it and keep diluting the stock to feather your nest.

I would read it as positive indicator that parties are interested in this stock.

Key point is to remember the term “beneficial owner”. Who’s scooping what and for who ? Take Bloomberg with a huge bucket of salt.

BOS aren’t in a rush to sell their newly acquired stock if they have Infact been transferred. There will be an orderly queue where serious offers are being heard. It will need a shareholder or consortium 25% to force a bid through for all the AB holdings. So think about who’s gonna be in the consortium and then you can understand the goings on behind the scenes. Who’s going to be in AB 2 ? Because the court case is inextricably connected to major shareholders of the firm it’s hard to see how an offer or consortium can be formed until it goes away ! That is not a deramp.

I hope I don’t smell like a Bonnier fan, if that’s the flag I have to wave because I believe that Candy Co is wrong then so be it. I’m not gonna shuffle around my thoughts to please posters on this board. Maybe the truth will one day emerge and everyone including me will be astounded.

Technically not so. When Candy "gave" Bonnier his Boom, it was trading in the 150-200p range. After giving it to him, Candy so his own holdings balloon a stagering 800%. something that he had never ever managed to do under his own holding. Instead of cashing out, he couldn't as he was a major shareholder and would require notification, so he pledged out. Imagine if on the way up as the SP grew lots of long positions were taken by the "other" insiders. Everyone made money (maybe not us :)). Wash rinse repeat, and take it all the way back down. Surely Candy doesnt think Bonniers only bit of money is tied up with a few million pounds of stock in AB. If it was then how does Bonnier still afford a decent lifestyle, and also take Candy to court ? If i was a betting man i would say Candy's underestimated his opponent, big time !

192 a Singapore based co. Perhaps you should explain the 2 million shares pledged by CV to the BOS raising a cool £30m ? Why didn’t 192 follow suit, 192 is in the same back yard ? If it was entirely possible to short AB stock by crashing the share price by putting rumours into the market, then what better motive would CV have needed to destroy Booms value by buy back his cheap pledged shares.

The truth behind the massive SP destruction of AB needs to be revealed. The truth should let the shareprice free. To find its true value £5, £10 or even £40. Once shareholders demand the historical trading history of cfds, longs and shorts and the protagonists behind them, their intertwined relationships then you will know why the SP is exactly where it is at right now. Don’t let the media keep fooling you, they sell great stories and make hero’s out of villains whilst they protect their own.

Whatever the agenda, CV case has not done Boom shareholders any favours. The case lingers like a bad smell.

Sadly, 99% of the investment into AAA shares has been absorbed by the people in the know. The insiders, the longs and the shorts. Nudge nudge wink winks. Non of this value went to the company, all it did was manage to get some good funding based on historical share price by a bunch of muppets that were sold the illusion. But even those funds were then spent feathering the Aaqua nest. Aaqua squandered the lot, poor management and an ability to spend funds faster than you could sh*t out a hot and spicy curry. The company is no more all it is is those muppets trying to regain their vanity. Not money they need, but a situation they won’t let go. Well that’s not until they break the back of the scheming MC

That’s one of the most sensible posts I’ve read on this board. All pointing to a hostile takeover. All it takes is accumulation at these low prices. Then they can force a bid through by voting rights.

You have to remain open minded and that there could be 2 sides to every story. I don’t believe NC lost any money with his investment. He was able to get a load of money from OCBC in Singapore for overvalued AudioBoom shares, and no doubt short them again on their way back down. He had a win-win run. Alongside that so did all the other cronies that got involved. And there’s a long list of them. The FCA however aren’t that interested (let’s say at the moment). The only value left is AAA’s share in Sentiance which is worth probably next to nothing from a shareholders point of view. However where the real value of AAA is, is that their BOD were not appointed in Legitimate style, but by a spin off (some say related to some big players wanting AAA to tumble) they are going after Bonnier just like Candy V. So if they can be groomed to follow suit, eventually the BOD will be on a win win. Imagine if they help support CV to take the heat of his 150M back lash from his false WWFO ? Doesn’t that have a value in itself ?

Now you are talking sense. Unfortunately the FCA are usually very slow, very uninterested and by the time the damage has been done they will then step into issue a fine and a slap on the wrist. Make yourself a little connection tree, join the dots the big money is waiting on the sidelines to take AB to new heights and are a lot more patient to wait than shareholders. The question is how will the shareholders feature in the new boom ? Will there be a dilution event first ? It would make so

Much more sense to make it with a higher share price but how can they do that as this would give RB the position he needs to take some money of the table. Chicken and egg stock.

Sorry to harp on. Get wise - this stock ain't going nowhere until the RB and NC case has been settled. These 2 individuals are what is holding it back period. It is NC wish to completely bankrupt RB so he can't fight him in court, unfortunately he will never bankrupt him by flattening his AB holdings. He will however continue to destroy shareholder confidence long before the case is settled though.

When there is heavy interest in a shorted stock the short sellers are picking up (buying) their cheap shares that have been on loan to them. Loan converts to a sell, but they don’t have to buy them all back at once, especially as they can drive the price lower. Hence more buys than sells.

Still you guys have your head firmly buried in the sand. There’s an excuse for everything. What is not excusable is that this stock was in the doldrums for many many years since NC became your largest shareholder. It rose on the back of being able to exploit a huge following and subscribers as part of a social media marketing campaign (no names mentioned), that since collapsed then w/o any exciting ideas on how to capitalise on AB’s position then it will remain in these doldrums once again. Organic growth (or shrinkage month on month) isn’t making this a very sexy stock anymore. It’s dull - just like me :)
