Does the revised offer not extend the date into April?

Not in the view of my holdings via Hargreaves Lansdown, Mary

So I will stick it out until then.

Ageas has until 5 PM on 27 March to either make a firm offer or walk away.

On a separate note is there anyone else that will consolidate a loss on their shares at their current unit value? Mine is £3.63

Quite right alex.

I will be waiting for the end of year results and the following:-

Ageas has until 5 PM on 27 March to either make a firm offer or walk away.

Has anyone considered what would EU insurance company shares would be like if Russia decides to take on an EU country such as Poland. Personally I would prefer to keep my money in this country under our Nuclear umbrella.

I think you mean to say a stocks and share ISA Poole.

Plus its good for tax free dividends.

A SIPP is good for CGT but its drawdown income can be taxed after you use up your tax free allowance.

That's alright Mr T.

I always made my own luck having built and owned 3 companies for over 45 years.

But it's always good to get other people's opinions.

Excellent find Mary. It's even better at 3.25 euro a share dividend for 2023

You make a fair point Mr T but I could only accept £2.11 cash for each share plus the 360 Ageas shares that my holding would attract.

Or a straight 990 Ageas shares with no cash offer as a straight swop for my holding.

After all it is they that want to buy out my shares not the other way around.

Thanks Shabz. That sounds more realistic.

So about £2.57 at todays exchange rate.

Mary B you seem to have an eye for detail. Do you know what sort of dividends Ageas payout. HL gives them as 300 Euros. Surely that cannot be right?

Or the third option Mr Trot. Leave holding as it is and hopefully continue some form of dividend return which has given me back an income so far of £8,750 since 2018.

Yes their value has dropped but my holding is still the same. Why would I consolidate a loss.?

I hold shares in over 200 companies as part of my HL drawdown pension funds. They go up and down in value but overall they still give me an income. These shares form part of my Halifax ISA account along with others so the dividends are tax free.

As a long term dividend reliant holder at 364p a share.

I will not be looking to accept their offer unless I get my break even price which could include some Augeas shares to maintain future incomes in some degree.

Pat,

Is there any money to be made in making curtains. My Nan thought so.

C909 said

Login Developments Limited have a number of charges including one from the Clydesdale Bank;

Clydesdale Bank PLC

That is incorrect as no outstanding Clydesdale Bank loans.

So its not nitpicking its a straight forward lie.

And needs correcting.

After all C909 calls the BOD liars and criminals

Now he has just done the same.

C909

Try looking at the right company accounts its Logik not Logic.

For someone so informed about the so called Liars and criminals I would have thought that you could at least get the company facts right.

Cureboy, They even got a can to kick yet. It's on backorder.

That's a good point Tep1

Thanks

On paper Tep1 I expect not.

However they would if they were given to the BOD as share bonuses later on or alternatively used to buy out a renewable energy company in the future.

What I haven't seen is a substantial change in the share value directly as a result of these buybacks. The increase in value so far has been due to an increase in high profits from energy sales. Plus every other shareholding that I have has cancelled their buyback shares straight away. Warren Buffets view is that you own a higher percentage of the company without forking out more money. But is that the case here.

Thank you Shab

Not bad for a child born in a slum tenement building with no bathroom who left school at 15 and took an electrical apprenticeship. Instead of the expected 5 O levels, 2 A" and a good chance of uni degree. I found hard graft more to my liking.

An 140 year old six bedroom detached Victorian Mansion-ete with solid walls that cost a fortune to keep warm unfortunately. Even after insulating the loft that is big enough for another 3 bedrooms and bathroom plus uprating the boiler to a more efficient one I would need £40K to cover the walls outside with insulation. And no I do not want to downsize. I worked hard to reach this level of home for the kids to all have a bedroom and ensuite facilities when they come to visit. Plus they get to inherit it tax free. And I would miss my home cinema.

Pat,The lack of a completely built thermal combustion chamber is stopping it.
