Hard to see a positive outcome29 Sep 2017 11:01
From CityChap2011 on the Interactive Investor site yesterday evening:
Not only have Central Rand Gold shareholders seen their investment half due to the Board of Directors signing up to the Bergen death-spiral finance agreement. Where Bergen forward sold millions of shares flooding the market and driving the share price down from 2.5p to 0.45p. They completely duped the BoD because they never intended to take up any warrants at circa 3p. This part of the agreement was a complete red herring making the BoD think it was a good deal and that the share price would rise and the warrants would be exercised.
Now the Board of Directors has appointed Peter House Corporate Finance Limited, the broker from hell. Check out Nyota Minerals LTD (NYO) to see just what a nice supportive broker Peter House is and what has become of Nyota Minerals another struggling miner with virtually no cash.
Peter House offered to fund Nyota, which would have meant massive dilution for shareholders, but then never delivered the funds and may have allegedly shorted Nyota's shares in the process further driving down the share price. Nyota's Nomad resigned. Peter House wouldn't fund Nyota unless they found a new Nomad. They couldn't and Nyota has now had its shares cancelled on AIM with little to no chance now of raising any funds to continue. Shareholders were completely screwed over by their Directors, Peter House, their NomAd, Beaumont Cornish Lt, and AIM. Nyota found a replacement NomAd but AIM wouldn't permit them. Nyota is now insolvent. Game over.
Don't be surprised to see Peter House offer £500K for millions of shares at 0.05 p, delay funds which then never arrive and CRND will go bust.
Does nobody on the Central Rand Gold Board of Directors have any idea what terrible financial decisions they are making?
How can Chairman, Simon Charles, allow these inexcusable mistakes to be made?
