The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Bless him. Let him enjoy it MrH, I'm pretty sure this is his first investment.
"and always having to try too hard to be funny"
Lol, the irony.
Agreed. There's no way he's leaving this gravy train voluntarily.
"Untrue, invented, of doubtful authenticity"
As ever, notably light on any tangible examples to the contrary. Groundhog Day.
"from what I see, all the boats have been missed by this share"
Yeah this is the crux of it. They've blown pretty much every opportunity presented to them since back in the EVRH days and now the latest 'jam tomorrow' we're all pinning our hopes on is this magic app. Given that Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, Qobuz and countless other streaming services already exist, the USP is going to have to be something special.
"especially when Directors are furnishing themselves with stock at recent lows"
I'd have been more excited if it didn't say 'per the terms of his employment contract' earlier in the RNS. He literally didn't have a choice. Would be nice to see some more Directors buying shares, instead of just taking a load of cash out of the company.
Croydon, maybe wind it in a bit mate. If you want to convince people of the bull case for this share then fine, but I don't think this barely literate spam-ramping is having quite the effect you think it is.
Bless him, Croydon has seen a Bloomberg terminal for the first time and has got a bit overexcited. You have to smile.
"but with Napster’s library heading there things could be changing"
Without any tangible numbers, the word 'could' is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. It 'could' end up like all of Matchett's other 'big commercial deals' - sounds great to begin with, but ultimately delivers naff all in meaningful revenue.
People don't believe the hype any more, as our share price demonstrates. He needs to prove that he can see a deal through to consistent cash generation.
Oh dear. Seems like Benjamin might have had a 'long lunch' as well...
If a load of tinfoil hat nonsense about 'paid derampers' and 'market manipulation' via barely-visited amateur investor bulletin boards is what gets you to sleep at night then who am I to judge?
'Life Lesson'!! You have to laugh.
How about 'don't have too much to drink at lunchtime and post a load of pompous guff like that on LSE'? That seems like a lesson worth heeding.
Enjoy the weekend all.
Yes it's good to see the price finally moving in the right direction, but to categorise the recent fall as 'mostly panic and misinformation' just isn't true at all. The price has been trashed by an appalling finance deal, agreed to by our consistently underperforming BOD. Not to mention their genius decision to keep the MelodyVR name and app going, whilst adding absolutely none of the (supposedly, allegedly) 'extensive recorded library' to it. If anyone is going to the AGM, I'd love to see the CEO asked for some firm numbers on the nature of the library.
They've promised the Earth and delivered none of it to date. It makes sense that investors would be wary about trusting this team again yet. The new additions to the Board need to start cracking some heads together, ASAP.
Yeah you will. You'll keep up this rampy bluster for a little while, then you'll get bored and/or sick of losing money and move on to the next disaster.
"Where are all the Bears gone today?"
Lol, what do you think you're achieving with idiocy like this? The share price is currently 1.35p. Maybe you're satisfied that, because you've been here for 5 minutes and are looking for a quick trade. Plenty aren't.
Of all the Damascene conversions I've ever seen on these ridiculous boards Mel, I think yours is probably the biggest. Quite the turnaround from when you were pledging to plow your entire annual ISA allowance into this, just a few months ago.
"I think I proved i knew what was coming"
Think again.
"Blast off week coming folks strap in or strap one on, whichever is your preference, things are about to get hot and steamy!"
Down 17% today with no sign of it stopping. Lol, take a bow 'kingofkeighley', another barnstorming prediction!
You have to laugh...
Same Cunir. The daily drops of 10% - 15% are basically meaningless now. This is now very much a write-off for me and I assume it'll be going to zero at some point.
Agree with your comments horse.mouth - it's clear that the CEO is badly out of his depth here and has been for some time. His leadership of this business has been defined by plenty of talk and very little tangible delivery. There must be some 'spokesman' type NED non-job they could shuffle him into and find someone with a track record of actually running a successful media business.
