Member Info for Kooba

Ngr..I was not involved was out and about and you dragged me in for not condemning something when you hadn’t read it in context.

Some folks post things over the line to get a reaction ..sometimes they get it.

Brackets mean I read it differently ..that refers to Terry as far as I read it…maybe troublesome can clarify as I think you might have taken undue offence.

“Yes I’ve told you that twice Kooba.

Nope you have told me that you consider Terry was inappropriate mentioning pre pubescent school boys shagging but troublesome was outrageous in reacting to them bringing that kind of subject on the board and what that could appear to a reasonable reader. I also do not see where troublesome said he thought you were a pervert…perhaps reread that bit. In fact if you had read the whole thing first rather than flying off the handle once again you might have realised who is disruptive and causing all the issues.

He who you cannot name it seems.

Ngr

I still feel what he said had crossed the line.

I am asking whether you think Terry crossed the line bringing such subjects to the board or troublesome for their reaction to them doing so…or both just trying to assess where your outrage starts and finishes

SmithyB and there is circa £2m on the Fab ..£500k kit rest in set up costs.

Ngr

I still feel what he said had crossed the line.

Who?

SmithyB

“And we can see 52m gbp plus the 3m gbp share buyback, plus payment of the 5m gbp loan ( i hope),”

Yes correct on the £5m loan that has now be repaid ( on top of the £7m odd bonus they got in the litigation costs) the £52m is £30m tender £20m cash in hand and taking £2m. Because that is approx what has been spent to end of this month in the buyback with only £1m of the buyback outstanding now .

Which leaves bonuses and incentives .

( they bought shares into incentive scheme and bought shares to satisfy executive options exercised)

But we did have a cash balance pre settlement which was to take us to cash flow breakeven as well mostly raise in 2022 funding…so that should be added back in….several M.

And cash burn on increased fixed cost base ..up to £400k per month which should be offset by the accrued interest .

My point is not that there is anything necessarily wrong but that the remaining cash allowing for the capital return is a pittance compared to the net numbers being bandied about.

But what do you think of introducing the subject of pre pubescent schoolboys and shagging ..all good with you then ??

Sorry £20m left and £32m returned so £52m accounted for.

Really is becoming a double act of faux outrage while at the same time being outrageous themselves.

He won £150 million from Samsing which wasn't on the cards when he took over and this saved the company giving it more cash than it had ever earned.

Can’t even get the cash amount correct or tge name of the infringer …and that wasn’t a win , most of it was an asset sale and most of is now missing as we are £52m left.

They certainly know how to get through shareholder cash in a short space of time.

Now we will have BT severance package to cough as well as keeping him on payroll as a consultant for who knows how long? Edelman was on the books till April last year.

The only folks that get anything out of this company are the executives in spades.

STMicro cuts full-year outlook for second time, shares tumble

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stmicroelectronics-cuts-full-outlook-second-051119594.html

The settlement ..or the settlement you say?

Let’s settle on an outcome worth multiples.

Haven’t got time to dig the presentation detail out again but listened to it many times.

Try a presentation around the fundraise ..

Ngr

“…that you know the individual’s identity so that makes the whole thing a bit skewed in your favour.”

I haven’t got a clue who they are save that others used their previous id NigWit to guess their name and it stuck..the fact they then try to get accounts banned who use that name sort of confirms it. Every other detail that they give out voluntarily i treat as highly bogus as explained.

If their surname starts with Wit it would not be surprising though i guess. Very cryptic.

If they expect me to divulge personal details on an anonymous bulletin board they are more stupid than even i give them credit for. As expressed previously those that brag behind an ID are normally not worth a bean.

Btw at the time of the fundraise we were being told multiples of market cap.

I also posted some net net figures of what we got for all the past and future licence of our core technology ..there was $60m attributed to what we were going to court for …and the costs were over $60m all told. So all we got was from the IP sales. We have returned about £32m and have £20m left in the bank..which equates to about $63m from that $90m accounted for…so what shareholders really ended up with was very diluted from the headline $150m and far far from transformational or any multiple of the prevailing market cap when that guidance was given 2 years ago when raising funds from shareholders at 37p……BT put £5000 in..so really committed !

there you see ngr…what do i do put up with this **** or retaliate against someone you think is being bullied…i can only presume troublesome is right and they get some gratification out of getting their **** kicked.

The perversity is to retain confidence in an executive that fail to deliver and were out of their depth and who treated the majority of their share register with distain.

I have been advocating a change of executive management and seeking a more appropriate and experienced CEO…the company is now changing the CEO..certainly nothing to do with me but it appears the powers that be have agreed. All rather overdue but we might finally get some clarity and confidence as to whether the company can actually grow organically rather than just talk about it.

Thats progress.

I agree NGR..this is not particularly relevant ..a great example of using quantum technology in sensors is MRI scanners developed in the 1970’s. The word quantum overlaps but the science and basis of the quantum technology programme does not so much.

I was always very interested in the use of QD’s and more importantly CFQD’s in medicinal diagnosis and monitoring functions and i still note the company has this in its description often cited

“ Nanoco develops materials used in the manufacture of monitors and TV screens and technologies for medical imaging and the early diagnosis of cancer.”

From yesterday https://www.thebusinessdesk.com/northwest/news/2137060-nanoco-seeks-new-ceo-as-brian-tenner-tells-board-hes-leaving

But it does not appear there is much going on anymore in the medical field? Maybe wrong.

ngr you have lost the plot. you completely ignore all the vile posts by terry and the mental health issues he was first to raise and throw around like confetti based on nothing when others turn the tables on him because his behaviour was a complete mirror of what he was throwing at others you start stomping your feet as though you are the arbiter of what is acceptable and fair..who the hell are you to judge anything anyway.

i could point out that your behaviour to troublesome is akin to bullying quite easily . ..an odd situation since you have then perpetually on block but respond to their every post.

are you a bully ..are you? i will answer that for you yes!!

you recognise that style?

luckily troublesome is a plucky fellow and doesn’t need me to stand up for them.

you on the other hand are a hypocrite with no self control..let’s not be personal ..thats all you do. don’t be nasty to another poster ..who is absolutely vile and starts just about every spat by being abusive or bringing mental health on a personal level into play.

your reaction ..poor them. ******* joke and makes me consider exactly why you think you need to defend the little ****.

step back look and be amazed at your nonsense.

But you must think the same ..or do you just accept anything anyone else says . As someone who apparently thinks for themselves where do your concerns that they have mental health issues spring from that prompts your intervention ?

They attack numerous posters and invariably start things as you know…gloves of and all. You don’t suppose making personal attacks on a group of posters is going to get that group responding.

However you frame it you are telling me what I am wrong and what I should be doing ..but can’t bring yourself to direct anything at Terry when they post things that make you cringe and know are designed to upset others.

What makes you think terry needs you to protect him anyway…do you think he is vulnerable individual ?

I posted my thoughts on the events of today and how I interpret them ..point of the board . What happens then is Terry turns personal and abusive .

He is a disruptor who clearly has a personal agenda…and craves attention. ..and adds absolutely nothing.

Meanwhile the ongoing defence of BT by certain parties when he is exiting stage left , likely because he no longer has the boards support or unlikely is deserting a mess he has made ..is also bizarre. Either way he has failed shareholders .
