The 2.5mill trade was well sold at above the bid assuming it was a sale from which a contrarian view could be translated as a strong sp ~usually such a sale against a weak sp would knock it somewhat.
I have no idea why someone wanted to sell before pending news ~There have been a number of small 100,000 + purchases recently made in a fashion to suggest it was the same buyer who knows.Maybe they sold out.
It is not of the slightest concern if anything it may have bought the sp back down to buying territory in my opinion.
The next RNS is what will be off interest to all investors especially those of us who have through our own resources gathered interesting information about the possible outcomes for the figures work.
Ongood additions to existing info., I have little doubt the sp will hold its position if not rise.
The US business base should include the Spanish speaking areas ~Mexico etc.,
We have South Africa, Australia,India and elsewhere.
I will request more RNS information on just how wide the business base now is.
What has C'tag which has no income no orders and constant dilution got to do with AB ~nothing.
Whereas AB has continuously increasing business to business with rising income flow on a world wide basis.
Poor comparison to say the least.
Found this analytical comment ~The key question now is whether it can avoid a dilutive emergency equity issue~
I suppose it depends on any broken banking covenants, the delayed revised account results should reveal all ~
If there is it will hit the sp although so far so good as it were.
News should be out soon.
Always question ~information sometimes found can be revealing
.
Whilst I was checking back for more info., I remembered last Febs., 7 ? point mini bulletins by RP explaining how AB works~ worth hearing again.
OK boss he is one of us at least I was polite~ Don't be sorry Keith.
The picture for Sonar is up to date.
Part of the possible CF injection would be used to bring it into AB group.
One of the things that is always ongoing is the R&D expenditure to keep up with the fast evolving technology as far as I can see they are up to date and on top of the constantly changing demand parameters which is why they set up and are involved with SONAR.
So what is suspect about RP having a decent holding of 26% in a company AB will probably take out?
If you think it suspect tell us why so we can factor this new risk in ~obviously you know how his holding came about?,why AB wants the company?why it was set up separately and who set it up and you know who financed it.?,
Apart from that what do you know about the company as you are certainly not up to date.
On that basis probably not invested if you are and If you think suspect then best sell out now and go away before you lose any more money.
Digital audio spend due to double in US in next 2 to 5 months~listener growth exceeding that~£5.4 million pencilled in for 2017~business expected to be + 40/50% up this year H2 to H1.,means more money.
Hint of takeover prospects.
So if we are exceeding current KPIs what can be expected for 2017results?
I know peak has me worried, maybe we should suggest he sees the doc before the guys in white coats turn up.
i don't know which card to send~ Condolences or Get well soon !
Meanwhile it seems those of us who keep well informed are in general agreement the fiscal KPIs are being exceeded.
Could be the beginning of the rise towards expectations so PIs getting involved to be in time for any bounce on good news.
I am thinking between 3.5 and 4.5p~ if the news suggests KPI expectations being exceeded all the time then the sp may just roll on.
Just spread the word and the herd will do the rest ~ not just yet as I have not finished buying in.
