Why did 'MTUAC' want to hold such a big percentage for such a short time? I do smell something fishy.
The timing and mechanics of this sell-off certainly raise questions for retail investors. Here is why this looks suspicious:-
The Timeline of the Exit
Initial Stake: ~9.5%
Mid-April 2026: Slashed to 4.75% (a massive sell-off in just days).
Late April 2026: Fell below 3% (the point at which they no longer have to report further sales).
Today (May 5, 2026): According to CyanConnode’s latest register, they are essentially gone.
Why it Looks 'Fishy'
Selling into a 'Recommended' Offer: The Board has stated they will recommend Esyasoft’s 10.44p offer. Usually, shareholders wait for the 10.44p cash-out. By selling now at the market price of ~8p, Premier Miton is leaving roughly 23% of the value on the table.
Price Suppression: Large institutional sales create 'overhead resistance.' Every time the price tries to climb toward the 10.44p bid, these massive sell orders keep it pinned down at 8p. This makes the company look 'weaker' and helps the buyer (Esyasoft) argue that their 10.44p offer is generous.
The Debt Link: Remember that Esyasoft is already a major creditor ($20M+ loan). If a major shareholder and a major creditor were aligned, they could effectively 'trap' the company into a low-valuation takeover.
