Directors' dealings6 Nov 2024 20:55
Looking back through Directors' dealings, the only sales I can see since 2015 are by the current Chairman - Hockey. On 22nd March he sold 224,227 then bought 225,000 the same day, both at 8.92pence. Bed & Breakfast £20,000?? hardly worth it.
Then yesterday same thing - bought 105,386 and sold 105,942 both at 2.15pence £2,200 - not worth the effort?
A.P. had 27,525,575 shares in 2012 - I don't know what they cost him.
Since then he has bought 68,827,441 shares at a cost of £4,429,216
He now has 96,353,016 worth £2,216,000 at 2.3pence. So he is losing £2,213,000 plus whatever the first 27,525,575 shares cost him.
If he is taxed at say 40% on his £750,000 remuneration that leaves £450,000 pa. He may have lost over 5 years worth of that but may have rec'd less than 750,000 in previous years?
I stand to be corrected if any of this is wrong but on the face of it he doesn't seem to have done very well !
