If Debenhams is irrevelvent ..you wouldn't bother posting would you! Perhaps Google "troll"...

Only liabilities? Strange... I look at the accounts/balance sheet and find various assets listed ... (some intangible) .. the brand is an asset in itself .. assets to sell... stock.. etc. amazing that some of the more negative posters actually even held this share imho

Beteto - a couple of points... 1) this court case has been going on for months - why only now have you been able/willing to post this information - it might have helped if we knew about it (whether it effects CLP or not) a while back and 2) are you a shareholder? Some might wonder if you have a particular issue with this company? You are not the farmer are you? lol

The last RNS was in March 2016 - this has been going on longer than Brexit. Admin - time to close the thread (as it is now annoying to see the odd MTV ticker post coming up on the chat list - not even sure how you can post on here unless a post appears because when you post MTV in the search line - it does not come up) Goodbye!!!

FeverClucker - I presume they want to issue more shares during the year - perhaps in blocks? BTW with most companies there are dozens of trades per day - doesn't automatically mean news is coming. However as Whetstone is on Britdaq, some get excited by the odd buy/sell matching trade - I suppose it's better than no activity - and the price is rising - however, it does not mean news will happen this week etc. Of course though, news is overdue..

It's a bit unfair to call "some" posters naive just because they do not have as much knowledge as you in this particular field. Rent is just one major cost for any employer. Business rates - salaries - IT - stationery - advertising - it all adds up. Oh btw did you know that all these costs go up year on year? The trick is to increase revenue and margin to match or exceed the increase costs so that profits rise. Might seem obvious but if Debenhams look at the bigger picture - the rental issue - in itself - should not necessarily be the one reason for any future CVA or admin etc. That's why they have a plan already! To close 30-50 stores over the next 5 years - maybe the naive posters are the ones who don't accept Debenhams have already made plans to resolve this long term issue?

Makes you wonder why he acquired 29% of the share issue in the first place (at around 50p). Not the best investment decision - perhaps HoF came into the picture and he decided to buy this company instead? Will be interesting to see what his next move is - it might not be Debenhams...

Post reported - outrageous behaviour to put a list up of individuals a single poster has filtered AND to ask others to do the same especially as since I cannot fathom out what most of these posters have done to warrant being filtered? The only person I have considered filtering is WGR and have not because filtering means you are closed minded - you don't want debate - you only want one view point and most important of all - YOU HAVE AN EGO

Perhaps it needs reminding that CLP is first in the queue re the creditors and will received a decent amount what ever happens - others can confirm the details (bit busy). Remember plenty of news is due on various fronts - the law of averages will suggest we cannot expect a 100% win rate.

What's a normal market? The FTSE is above 7,000 and been fairly stable so unless you mean the low interest rates and QE I am not sure what is abnormal about this market? Debenhams is sub 7p for various reasons - profit warnings, the rent issue, the falling LFL sales and rising debt to north of £200 million. I agree it looks oversold but its hard to predict a fair value - depends on current trading. Also not sure MA wants Debenhams - he has not plenty of time to make a bid - a shareholder for a year or so - maybe he expects a CVA or admin or recovery to sell out at a higher price...??

No idea tbh. Short termers will sell out today. Share price back to square one. Just hope future RNSs are clearer gl

Also the initial RNS was similar to previous ones - confirming a new tie up with an India provider with potential access to 100m subscribers. There was no mention of possible revenue. No update on trading. The company has no power to move the share price - it takes volume either on the buy side or the sell side to move a share price .. and MMs marking up/down the bid/offer. The company was wise enough to comment on the share price movement later in the day. They could have made it clearer that revenue would not immediately increase but when posters appear on a BB and get carried away with comments like "this was 17p two years ago" without mentioning the additional shares in issue - it is the posters intention to either misled or push up the share price to make a profit. Too many on the BBs get carried away by posters hype - they are just as bad as a RNS that could be clearer. It happens on many AIM companies and sometimes inexperience investors may buy on BB pumping (which they should never do) rather than spend a few minutes researching the pros and cons. If some here wish to complain to the authorities - go ahead - I doubt it will get you any where. Maybe the CEO might buy some shares to send a signal he actually believes the Indian agreements will transform the company - now that will be a buy signal.

Britney - you are a NEW poster - so why MOS .. scam? LOL why can't you guys be honest? Some of you saw the spike and piled in... the experienced day traders made their 50% profits and sold out - and some of you are left with a potential loss. Don't blame the company. Blame inexperience investors .. because this has happen here 4-5 times before. A RNS ... a spike... and a drop .. I even said it would happen early Friday morning before the spike! It also happens on AIM all the time. So if you want to have a rant .. fine. However don't blame MOS. Blame the AIM market in general and the fact that too many of you try to make an quick killing by piling in on a RNS and sometimes you get caught!

Clearly it was a "reason or no reason for share price movement" RNS due to 109% rise. The mistake was not making this clear.

Sains - perhaps you can clearly explain the benefits of a CVA for those of us not involved in property? If landlords have long leases agreed with Debenhams and the rents are fixed and are not able to be reduced due to various loan LTA requirements - then why would a landlord(s) concede ground under a CVA? Will they suddenly agree to cut the term of a loan or the rent level just because a company enters a CVA?
Why do you think Debenhams have not entered into a CVA already? My answer is that perhaps because they remain profit making (on an underlying basis) and are seeing their turnaround plans bearing fruit - that they have a plan to close 30-50 stores over five years and believe they can speak to each landlord on an one on one basis over a reasonable period to try to get agreement? They are not in a rush.... of course Debenhams might also be saying to the landlords "agree a compromise or we go down the CVA route".. but again - i think many of us on here are not clear what the actually benefit of a CVA is? It will hurt the company reputation - cause distrust between the retailer and landlords - and may impact their own loan LTA terms and credit rating. MA might be getting what he wants but he must be burning a lot of bridges with might come back to bite him at a later date. Enjoy the weekend all

Interesting - six separate resolutions to allot securities (more shares). Why not just have the amount increased and put it under the one resolution? Overall the AGM had the usual standard resolutions but RAP does appear to be expanding fast - which will require more funding - perhaps from Whetstone (did they ever subscribe to the warrants last month)??

It's a shame there is not an exit fee to pay for breaking off the takeover talks - the company will probably feel it has wasted quite a bit of time on this... at least we have a ball park figure of what a predator will pay so imo there is upside here unless the property environment deteriorates further..

Thanks for the update RKB and I am having a great day elsewhere and expect fireworks here either late today or early next week - as you say - several RNS news are pending. My only comment would be that we all know as LTHs that the share price NEVER reacts here like we expect. We might expect 1.5p on x event or 2p on y event BUT whether we will actually see this share price depends on not attracting too many day traders who will sell out on a 20% profit - we have seen it here too many times before - HOWEVER if everything happens as expected - the share price will surely be higher!!?

Maybe but MOS is not (yet) desperate to have a placing - they have enough cash until well into the new year - it will happen (unless they go down the loan note route) but I think the plan is to issue wave after wave of positive news - which is the case - and to see the share price back above 2p or beyond - and at the moment it is working..

Sorry to disappoint, but I had an email recently from investor relations stating that the next update will be in early January re Christmas period trading - so don't expect any update until then (unless material) gl
