Absent of further news is a fair statement i would say SA.
The new MT production target suggests something else has went on in the background, to me it's a fairly big giveaway in that respect tbh.
But with nothing concrete, you can only speculate on what you can and are allowed to see, that new production target being a several fold increase to the last one and dropped into the RNS before the sale RNS.
We'll just have to wait and see exactly how it plays out, but with fairly direct statements in RNS, placing yourself in their shoes and asking yourself 'what would i do?', then in my eyes it's fairly straight forward -
Christian Schaffalitzky, Executive Chairman of Eurasia, commented: "The Board remains focused on maximising shareholder value, and, after receiving approaches from multiple parties interested in acquiring the Company's assets, has decided that launching a formal sale process under the Takeover Code is in the best interests of shareholders, which could result in a sale of assets or the Company. The Company will work with UBS and its other advisers to execute the process."
Great post by the way.
