Why did CEO convert loan to Shares?24 Jan 2019 13:07
Here is a quote from the 27th July Final Accounts RNS. "The Casa offer was due to close on 10 May 2018 and Premier elected to accept the Casa Offer. Premier received 6,128,822 new Arc Minerals shares ("Consideration Shares") for the 412,500 Casa shares it owned. At the closing Arc Minerals' market price on the 15 June 2018 (4.20p), the Consideration Shares have a value of approximately £257,410.52"
CEO secured his 300K loan (+30k fees for the loan ? Payable to CEO?) against the arc shares in June. At that time the share price of ARC was rising. By November PREM was virtually broke regards working capital, so no chance to payback the loan. ARC share price had collapsed...So CEO converts loan to 140 million+ PREM shares. Why? Because hecwas looking after his bottom line! Tough biscuits for LT shareholders of PREM. So CEO presided over PREM assests which are now worth half of what PREM 'paid' for. And changes the terms of his loan when he sees that because of this incompentance his secured loan is no longer secured.
