1. GJB was firing all kinds of stuff - mostly irrelevant -on Twitter, now he is gone;
2. Current BoD may be following a different approach, i.e. announce facts - ignore rumours (especially malicious ones);
3. Should the new BoD waste time in dispelling every rumour/consp. theory on the internet? Maybe made by people who do not have the Co's interests at heart? Or, better to focus on making money?
4. Co raised cash recently, plus announced that 2mln will be saved annually through downsizing/streamlining etc; does anyone think that such actions preclude firing some people? Especially, given the rapid growth in staff, expenses and overtrading? Isn't this why GJB that got sacked for i.e. losing control of expenditure? So why are people now complaining for cost savings?
5. Co is aware that, and big contracts won there recently, North America is a huge and vital market; why shut down its USA operations (streamlining yes, is possible);
Let's consider who has an interest in spreading various rumours and why the BoD may not even - reasonably - bother to dispel such rumours.
The main risk I see - IMO - is successfully collecting the 7mln+ of Trade Receivables it had on its books as per last update. that's the priority for the BoD.
DYOR - GL to genuine holders.
