98.35% - That's a hell of turnout!

Couple of years ago, WPP said ingenuity was worthless and then proposed a rival.

How can you have a growth company that's contracting?

At what point did you invest? 🤣

I’d laugh if the charities went back to Matt and said, “look if you’re thinking of giving to us again, no offence, but could we have cash instead please?”🤣

Looks like Arm / SoftBank made the correct decision in not listing in the UK!

Maybe but that would probably be the same for all of them. I guess they didn't like the Cap ex they're proposing? Shame, it was gaining some nice momentum and if there is going to be a takeover, they would be next imo.

Cutting costs, share buyback and paying dividend. Not sure what the market didn't like about this apart from them saying they're concentrating on food sales - maybe they wanted them to concentrate on non food sales?

Nope

MM would have also made loads at IPO. The other shares he was awarded after IPO are now considerably underwater, but he was given them for nothing anyway!

Cruddas owns too many shares for a bid (unless he wants out). Criminal the way this was dropped from £3! Very frustrating

I'm not leveraged but the way the MM's move things around, takes advantage of stop losses and people who can't afford to tuck the shares away. One way or another they're forced to sell and move on. If you were benefitting from this racquet why would you want to change it?

Wow, that is comprehensive, long and shocking!

Do the MM’s devalue uk stock just to help out the hedge funds who want to short? Is this not the same in the US or is it because there’s more volume over there?

Being locked into ingenuity is one thing, it makes no difference that MM owns the buildings. If it wasn't MM, then some other landlord would own these buildings and they will have been let on commercial / arms length terms.

In terms of value, if MM didn't do the initial deal and kept the ownership of the properties within the company, then THG's balance sheet would be a lot healthier. But that's a different argument.

Used to get an automatic response from IR if they couldn't respond straight away!
