Haha you don't need this forum to realise that this bunch will have problems with the delisting votes. A few institutional holders are already known to be 'declared enemies' and are very disillusioned with the board - in the past there were rebellions but these were put down because the other holders sided with the board. Don't count on that this time.

Ha TerrorWit getting exposed - the more I read about him the more I'm convinced he's associated with the company. No wonder he agrees with the board of directors for the delisting. He's a lone voice trying to mug retail investors. There is no chance this delisting resolution will be approved. In the short term that could lead to a doubling of the stock price as people realise it won't be delisted after all!

Btw the board are really small - they are so small that they only hold a few million between them (bleh) - they won't have any say on whether this company really goes private irrespective what they say here. That is our call and people should realise that delisting is not in their interests and vote against this foolish proposal. If you want to reduce costs downgrade to an AIM listing and reduce costs (= redundancies for any employees or board members not directly contributing!)

I can't believe they took such a big decision without thinking that more than 90% of their investors are retail! The board should work for us and look after our interests, not the other way round. Just announcing that shocking news crashed the stock price.

For that you need competent management and we are not sure we trust this bunch! This bunch only seems to know how to destroy shareholders equity!!

To see if the board are really competent just go on google and type nanoco group share price on the 'max' timeframe. The return is an outrageous 97.95% loss of investor funds - this stock used to trade over 150p. To see what the market thinks about the board's proposal see how the stock price crashed by over 50% on the news of the delisting vote. WHAT THEY HAVE DELIVERED IS MISERY.

Conclusion: The current board of directors cannot be trusted to deliver for shareholders. VOTE NO. DON'T LET THEM DELIST. ONCE DELISTED YOU WILL BE AT THEIR MERCY. If they want lower costs they should list it on AIM with much lower fees. This company is mainly owned by retail investors and the current board of directors have no right to take it private and make it very difficult for people to trade the stock (without getting shafted).

A DELISTING WILL REQUIRE A VOTE OF 75 PER CENT OF THE VOTES AT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING. UNLIKE MOST OTHER LISTED COMPANIES THIS COMPANY IS VASTLY OWNED BY RETAIL SHAREHOLDERS AND NO ONE HAS EXPRESSED CONSENT FOR THE DELISTING EXCEPT FOR THE DIRECTORS WHO OWN A MINISCULE HOLDING. THOSE JOKERS HAVE NO CARDS. WE HAVE MORE CONTROL ON WHETHER THIS COMPANY STAYS LISTED THAN WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO THINK YOU HAVE. YOUR REAL ENEMY IS INDIFFERENCE. IF YOU DON'T VOTE YOU WILL PLAY IN YOUR HANDS BECAUSE THEY THE COMPANY WILL USE THE VOTES OF THE SHARES THEY'VE BOUGHT FOR THE Nanoco Group PLC Employee Benefit Trust TO VOTE FOR THE DELISTING. (EVEN IF THIS IS UNETHICAL TO SAY THE LEAST AS THESE VOTES ARE NOT THEIRS FOR THEM TO CAST!)

Make sure to Vote no if you value your money. A no vote could potentially double the stock price. I know its not much comfort for a long term holder but its better than current levels.

For us retail shareholders it is critical to vote against this resolution. Directors are relying on the fact that not many shareholders will bother to vote!

HOW TO VOTE NO - ACT NOW! DIRECTORS ARE RELYING ON THE FACT THAT MANY PEOPLE WON'T BOTHER TO VOTE AND WILL PROBABLY USE THE SHARES THEY BOUGHT (WITH YOUR MONEY!) TO VOTE FOR THE DELISTING. Nanoco Group Sponsored Employee Benefit Trust own 6.93%. It will be vile for the directors to use this stake to vote for the delisting but these people don't have any conscience.

They better cancel this delisting proposal because they will be getting one huge humiliation. Retail investors for the most part do not want this.

A deal is likely is pie in the sky for us retail shareholders. We are not idiots. They can do a deal when its public. VOTE NO.

They could have opted to downgrade to AIM - with much less costs and an option that is way more palatable to shareholders. What they've achieved by this stupid announcement is further value destruction of the equity capital of the company while making many retail investors furious. VOTE NO.

FECK OFF YOU LEECH. IT IS PATHETIC THAT DIRECTORS ARE SO DESPERATE TO LURK HERE TO TRY INFLUENCING THE VOTE.

The principal effects of the Cancellation will be that:

· there will be no formal market mechanism enabling Shareholders to trade Ordinary Shares, no recognised market or trading facility is intended to be put in place to facilitate the trading of Ordinary Shares post Cancellation (save for the Matched Bargain Facility described in paragraph 4 below, which will provide a limited mechanism to facilitate the trading of Ordinary Shares off-market), no price will be publicly quoted for the Ordinary Shares and the transfer of Ordinary Shares will be subject to the provisions of the Articles;

· the Ordinary Shares will remain freely transferable, it is likely that the liquidity and marketability of the Ordinary Shares will, in the future, be more constrained than at present and the value of such shares may be adversely affected as a consequence;

· in the absence of a formal market and quote, it may be more difficult for Shareholders to determine the market value of their investment in the Company at any given time;

· the Company will no longer be subject to the UK MAR regulating inside information and other matters;

· the Company will no longer be subject to the UKLR and, accordingly, Shareholders will no longer be afforded the protections given by the UKLR. In particular, the Company will not be bound to:

a. make any public announcements of material developments, or to announce interim or final results;

b. comply with any of the corporate governance practices applicable to Main Market companies;

c. announce substantial transactions and related party transactions; or

d. comply with the requirement to seek Shareholder approval for reverse takeovers and fundamental changes in the Company's business;

· the Company will no longer be required to publicly disclose any change in major shareholdings in the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules;

· whilst the Company's CREST facility will remain in place immediately following the Cancellation, the Company's CREST facility may be cancelled in the future and, although the Ordinary Shares will remain transferable, they may cease to be transferable through CREST (in which case, Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in CREST will receive share certificates); and

· the Cancellation and subsequent Re-registration may have tax consequences for Shareholders. The Company is not able to provide Shareholders with any form of tax advice, and Shareholders are strongly advised to seek their own professional advice in order to ascertain the consequences for them of continuing to hold Ordinary Shares following the Cancellation becoming effective.

As shareholders we only have the stock price to measure whether the board is competent or not. They've had many years to deliver.

Nonsense? Let’s look at the actual reality.

Since this announcement, Nanoco’s stock price has plunged by over 50%. That means a retail investor who put in 10k has seen their savings wiped down to 5k or less. That’s not 'nonsense'—that is severe, quantifiable financial damage to the everyday people who own the vast majority of this company.

By forcing a total delisting, the board is stripping retail investors of vital regulatory protections and market liquidity. What makes this a total betrayal is that the board completely bypassed the obvious alternative: downgrading to an AIM listing. That would have cut costs and protected shareholders. Instead, they have the absolute gall to lock naive personal investors into an illiquid private shell.

This move is explicitly hostile to the company's core ownership base. How is the FCA standing by and allowing this to happen?

The company could have listed on AIM to save money. No by this delisting request they are showing their total disregard for shareholders which are for the vast amount retail. The directors have no right even asking for this absurdity and the stock market has already told you what it thinks about delisting by the stock crash. We own the company, not the directors who own very little. If the stock remains where it is I will be buying more to ensure I have more votes to cast to stop this.

Every time you say that rubbish gives me an opportunity to have my say:

Blocking the delisting will actually double the stock price short term! Anyone voting for a delisting is a fool or a director who loves his cosy job. The stock price crashed on the delisting announcement. If the delisting is confirmed the stock will probably head for more jitters. If its defeated you can expect at least a double of the stock price.

Conclusion: The current board of directors cannot be trusted to deliver for shareholders. We will fire the lot of you if necessary and distribute the funds to shareholders!

VOTE NO. DON'T LET THEM DELIST. ONCE DELISTED YOU WILL BE AT THEIR MERCY. If they want lower costs they should list it on AIM with much lower fees. This company IS MAINLY OWNED BY RETAIL INVESTORS AND THE CURRENT BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAVE NO RIGHT TO TAKE IT PRIVATE WHICH WILL MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT for people to trade the stock (without getting shafted).

Many directors don't care about shareholders - that's the sad truth about public companies - they consider the company to be theirs and only care about shareholders when they need to raise money - their only care is about have cosy jobs and generous salaries for as long as possible. And I definitely don't trust this bunch to have our interests at heart - they don't give a damn about you. The very fact that directors want to delist this when they know that the main owners are retail shows their total disregard for us. Their only concern is to continue extracting salaries without having to give regular reports or anything / no accountability while riding the gravy train!

Make sure to Vote no if you value your money. A no vote could potentially double the stock price. I know its not much comfort for a long term holder but its better than current levels.

It's the truth. You're naive if you think otherwise. I've been in this game for over 20 years. And those bunch won't resign if they lose the vote because they love their cushy jobs.

You can just give up on the delisting right now and save the humiliation. Any retail voting for a delisting is a FOOL willing lamb to be sacrificed. List it on AIM and reduce costs massively. I will be buying more shares before the vote if price stays at this level.

Blocking the de listing will actually double the stock price short term! Anyone voting for a delisting is a fool or a director who loves his cosy job. The stock price crashed on the delisting announcement. We will fire the lot of you if necessary and distribute the funds to shareholders!

No it's not going to be delisted if retail don't allow it. I will increase my holding if the price permits to make sure to block it!!

Another fecker trying to manipulate sentiment and screw retail investors.

Well you and TerrorWit post exclusively about Nanoco and usually with a positive vibe. You both think that a delisting is good for shareholders. It is suspicious and I'm sorry but we aren't fools. Delisting is the worst thing that could happen to retail shareholders. The market has already told you what retail think about a potential delisting - the stock price has been slashed by more than half!!

VOTE NO. DON'T LET THEM DELIST. ONCE DELISTED YOU WILL BE AT THEIR MERCY. If they want lower costs they should list it on AIM with much lower fees. This company is mainly owned by retail investors and the current board of directors have no right to take it private and make it very difficult for people to trade the stock (without getting shafted).

Its pathetic really - Poster TerrorWit - every single of his posts is about Nanoco. My bet is he's involved with the company - he doesn't seem like the usual investor with stakes in different companies and posting on different boards. He seems to have constantly posted positively about the board and started posting on 20 June 2024. To see if the board are really competent just go on google and type nanoco group share price on the 'max' timeframe. The return is an outrageous 97.95% loss of investor funds - this stock used to trade over 150p. Poster Nanonano has likewise exclusively posted about Nanoco and is now defending his comrade lol.
