Usual Corporate 🐂💩 speak . Nothing about the SP collapse and destruction of shareholder value. Expect all sunshine and roses on the Conference call and no questions of any substance from the analysts. The market doesn’t fall for it. I hope I’m wrong as long term holders need a serious re-rate.

Finally a greater proportion of DEC shares are traded in the US and the recent placing will only increase this further. Given that equity valuations are higher in the US than the UK, this should help support share price performance now uncertainty with the Maverick deal has been removed.

Hutson has blown the US Golden Goose within a year with his contemptuous approach to equity raising and SP dilution. US investors have now seen right through him as a J.R. Ewing snake oil salesman who doesn’t give a damn about promises made or Shareholder Value. The new strategy is more deals , more debt, more lies , more SP destruction. US Investors will be seething at the SP drop over 30% YTD and will punish Hutson on any SP increase by dumping shares. This rerate will be long and arduous if at all.

The initial market reaction to the Maverick deal was positive but turned pear shape quite naturally when extra equity was raised.

And there you have it. Hutson in a nutshell. The biggest most transformative so called deal completely mismanaged and the Share Price once again goes pear shape and rightly so. You may be wearing rose coloured spectacles but long term holders aren’t and neither is the market. New investors be warned. DEC can seriously damage your wealth

Asp1,

The only question regarding acquisitions has been the exact mix of cash, debt & equity. Investors not comfortable with this strategy really should consider re-investing in another company that aligns to their investment appetite as I do not see DEC changing their approach.

What a glib patronizing summary which typifies the approach Hutson, DEC Investor Relations , a House Broker or a paid ramper to spew out. As you seem to know a lot about the history of DEC , Hutson also declared a significantly higher dividend as sacrosanct and after a previous calamitous equity raise there would be no further equity raises. The cash amount of any so called accretive acquisition is minimal ,if any, it’s all debt and the equity honey pot that he constantly now raids with impunity. The market sees right through the current strategy hence the Share Price has collapsed this year and since 5/21 down over 62%.

Jim,

I’ve listened in to every Conference call. Not once have I been able to get one of my questions put to them. It is so contrived with the Hutson 🐂💩 agenda and invariably only 3-4 questions from analysts that have already been pre screened and adds nothing meaningful. It’s all Corporate speak and the usual spin. Monday will all be about the Maverick deal. There are no activist investors asking difficult questions holding Hutson’s feet to the fire.

Tells you everything Terry.

It won’t stop me , though , letting my feelings known to IR , Brokers and analysts. It’s our money on the line . GL to all hopefully buying in low and trading profitably and or picking up a nice divi 👍

GL with that theory.

Restoring Shareholder Value is not a priority for Hutson. He has single handedly destroyed value for years.

A bit early for that swallow. They migrate to the UK for the summer in April which hopefully fits in with the Maverick deal 🤪

looks like it. i’ve filtered . not interested in reading anything from anybody about ar*******o’s 🙈

Agree Terry,

Surely all the good news is out and really don’t see the Maverick deal closing doing anything unless it takes away the uncertainty. We know all about the so called great accretive deals, smarter asset mgt , cash flow , future opportunities etc etc but the market just doesn’t buy it. Even the golden egg of the US market has soured in a relatively short time. There’s nowhere else Hutson can turn. Unless he stops making deals and sweats these assets to improve the SP there’s no hope and we’re just on this constant merry go round. Currently on a 10.5% dividend less 15% tax

Just filter him. So easy 👍

the orange idiot ******* everything up with his tariffs. markets had been too optimistic about trump's plans for de-regulation and lower taxes, while under-estimating the likelihood of a trade war. worries now about possible recession , inflation , higher interest rates etc etc. any hope of a significant dec rerate after the acquisition is long gone and will continue to disappoint as absolutely no market confidence in this business. sadly i see new lows and languishing for longer . i hope i’m proven very wrong

The $50m penalty in the prospectus was authorised and could be paid by an equity raise !! Plenty of get outs in the prospectus that not doing the deal could impact the SP. Nothing about the impact prior to the acquisition. Just fyi Maverick lockups are a third after 6 months, another third after 9 months and final third after 12 months .

There you have it. Resolution passed by 99% . Quelle surprise. Now his pals given Hutson the authorisation over more shares if needed. Once again sweet fa impact on the SP !!

If you haven’t read it this is what is being voted on today. As always with these crooks the devil is in the detail .

Key statistics relating to the acquisition

Issuance of 21,217,713 shares

Note 1 . They can issue up to 33,954,491 in connection with the acquisition although this material increase is unlikely.

Regardless of their RNS I wouldn’t trust Hutson the snake oil salesman to dilute us even more to some degree

Another wordy RNS about how excited everybody is about the Strategic Partnership. High on hype low on detail. More jam tomorrow maybe. Won’t affect the SP one iota.

Projects aim to be responsive to the energy needs of data centers by offering an abundant supply of operational power within two years. Says it all .

You’ve answered your own question then

Hutson et al have share options , I would imagine, so why invest in a business they have inside information on and they know the SP has no chance of creating shareholder value . Unless of course you buy in at a fire sale price.

Sadly with Hutson it’s Bob Hope or No Hope. So many false dawns and disappointments with this business.

Gents,

We need to keep making our voices heard outside of this chat room.

DEC Investor Relations , house brokers Tennyson , Peel Hunt et al need to get your phone calls and emails as I have done. Tonight I emailed Sam Wahab Research Analysis at Peel Hunt after another update from the house broker that DEC is a compelling opportunity

+44 20 7418 8863

EMAIL SAM.Wahab@peelhunt.com

Once the Maverick deal is swallowed Hutson needs to stop deal making , leverage all the DEC assets to create True Shareholder Value and Corporate targets to get this SP back over $20 within the next 12 months. This needs to be his #1 priority and return value to his shareholders .
