Yes, Thunder, it's now a full two months since TTB announced that they were looking to make a bid: what can they and Playtech still be talking about?Resolution urgently needed!.

As I understand it, the company could delay publication of its results for six months beyond its year end without risking penalty. That would take it to 30/6/22. If takeover negotiations were ongoing, one might expect an RNS to that effect rather than "figures on Thursday". If on the other hand negotiations have been concluded, there will be even more news on (or before) Thursday and today's announcement makes good sense. Here's hoping!.

…just sold half my holding. Honestly.

I’ve just been told by Playtech’s PR people that the final results will not now be released next Wednesday but that the new date “will be confirmed soon”. If you are a “glass half full” person you may infer that there remains every prospect of a positive end to takeover negotiations, to be announced with the year end figures!

Surely a resolution will be reached by the time of full year results next month…..?

That the directors/officers of Playtech have posted their holdings implies constructive discussion, at the very least, nearly a fortnight after a further bid was intimidated on 2/3/22.

Does anyone have knowledge of whether the “28% group” has, or could raise, the funding to outbid Aristocrat and so take the company private?

The Jordan consortium has not walked away and the sp remains well above 680p. Odds of a rival bid next week surely favourable?

.. yet POLY falls. Answers, ladies and gentlemen, please!
