And waste valuable drinking time? You guys do appreciate what you are asking of him?

Trump must be under pressure from the UAE states as while we suffer from lack of imports of oil they have no exports! A part nobody really talks about.

To play devil's advocate.

It would be very hard for THG to be transparent about the commercials of ingenuity.

If it's cheaper than they charge others, true customers would say they are subsiding THGs use. If it's more, the share price and integrity of the business takes a beating. They are between a rock and a hard place. One of their own making mind.

We need to be fair and reasonable and call out it was never worth 600p. That was all hype based on the unbound promises of ingenuity - which have largely turned out not to materialise (and hence why it was detached). I've said it time and time again. A share price goes up for one of two reasons. 1) the market believes in significant future growth. 2) the business starts showing a decent profit consistently with growth. Based on the current business performance this is on a good day a 50 to 60p share tops right now. But there are clear signs that this is shifting and with good management (which I appreciate we don't have) could easily and quickly move to a performance which aligns with 100p plus. Once we get over that mark the business needs significant growth to make the fair value math work. Not unachievable but it needs some step changes to do it. This is based on pure fundamentals, no froth pricing. I fear our days of hype and prospect are gone and we can only work on hard buffet style valuations these days unless something radical happens.

Was he drunk?

Somewhere between 30 and 40p

I am going to go for 69p because it sounds tasty.

90 to 200k a week charter for a yacht that size.

The MP meals are fantastic and a great way to have a healthy go to when stuck instead of takeaway or a coop pizza. Love the stuff.

The last thing private holders want is a delist if that is the case. We need them to set out their stall so that this business can be fair valued on the open market. It is up to each of us to learn how to work out fair value to understand what that should be.

If that's the first thing that came to your mind who am I to argue...

Has anyone considered the possibility that big Mike is on a win win. This either goes up and he makes money on shares. Or the business continues to struggle to operate like an adult efficient business and they buys it up to add to the empire as a distressed sale. Not saying it's the case, just crossed my mind based on this thread.

This is one (of the many) problems with this company.

We have got to the point where we are always on high alert trying to work out how we are being shafted this week with snakey word play and verbal fog.

The issue is we expect it so much now that even when its innocent the first question is - what's the catch here?

It's very much a...

1) We are doing some housekeeping that gives us the legal arrangement to pay a dividend OR perform buybacks. It doesn't mean we are doing it but we are creating the environment so we can. Read into that as you will.

2) As many of you know we didn't quite follow the full legal process when demerging ingenuity and we are now asking for forgiveness and want your help to sweep it under the carpet.

The Ingenuity distribution resolution is essentially THG saying the January 2025 Ingenuity distribution may not have been carried out using the exact legal process required under the Companies Act, even though the intended transaction itself was agreed. They’re now asking shareholders to formally ratify and “clean up” the process so everyone ends up in the position originally intended, while also approving legal waivers so directors and relevant shareholders can’t later be sued over the procedural issue. It reads more like a legal/governance tidy-up exercise than an allegation of fraud or missing money, but it does raise questions about how the original process was handled.

i guess the question is what is the fcas motive and what is in their best interest? i can't really see that they give a **** or would have any reason to. as far as i can see it's a cushy civil service type job where the only goal is to avoid upsetting the pay masters. the pay masters happen to be the types that are likely connected to and chummy with the hedge fund types!

If you go on any used profile then change the name you can see what old accounts are up to.

Moniman seems to have been unalived.

Steve in Hull looks like he has a massive melt down and left 2 years ago. I heard he cashed out and spent it on a red Vauxhall vectra.
