My two penn'orth and, yet again, that old chestnut - this should not be paid for by issuing more shares. The state of the current SP is well known to regular readers of this board and, it is only at these levels because of the issuing of shares in lieu of payment - quickly followed by said recipients dumping that stock on to the market.
One proviso being if it were to be substantially at a premium to the current SP, then it may be easier to swallow. For example closer to 20p than 10p, and certainly not anywhere near 13.25p which is then made to look like existing shareholders are getting a good deal because "it's at a 10% premium to the closing SP last night".
LJM has said in at least 1 puff piece though that further dilution to existing shareholders isn't necessary, so I live in hope.
FK1, yes I agree. We're closer to being back down to 10p/1p than 20p/2p at the moment, which is ridiculous. All of the positive sentiment of the Q1 results / Midas article / other article whose name escapes me, etc. has been lost because of this second major seller.
On the morning of the Q1 update, we briefly hit 15.8p at 8:03am, but downhill all the way since then. Many of the new investors who came in at that point have surely now been lost as we've seen a lot of small retail selling in the past week or two. Had it not been for this barrage of selling activity, 16p+ at the very least was possible that day.
We also have the hangover of the, 6-18 month old, 2016 results released the other day.
