Ok, so reading through all of the messages since the three RNS's were released we have opening prices tomorrow ranging from 25p to 225p, I'm going to hedge my bets and say somewhere in between although i hope and pray for the latter 🙏

Market makers are taking the absolute Mickey is what's happening here, completely discouraging any buying or selling 🤷

For the life of me I can't think who would be selling now or why? Surely it can only be churn tying to maintain a low price for closing? One thing for sure, if the shorts manage to close down here they have played can absolute blinder.

The Fools latest piece on THG. These people get paid for this tripe? You just have to laugh.

Quite right 101, one of the few things can be said that's factual is judging by the SP the majority of the market won't believe anything until it happens as far as Moulding is concerned, his hollow words are discounted entirely. The wait continues.

Changes that have been called for to release value are underway, it's not the way Moulding wanted it to happen but his back is against the wall this time.

A mother of all rerates is to come and I don't think we'll need to wait too long.

Interim results for the half-year ended 30 June 2024

Progressing options to demerge Ingenuity, resulting in a highly cash generative group.

"When you think about it, what a ludicrously low target to reach anyway. Even your corner shop is cash flow positive. Does raise basic question of how is it that after 20 years and god knows how much investor cash pumped in is this still not happening."

Your average corner shop isn't investing profits in the way of Capex to build a much larger entity you Muppet. If I wanted to invest in a corner shop making small change on its sales I would but that's not the kind of profits I'm hoping for.

You're obviously aware of just how many huge companies operated at a loss before growing to their current market dominating position?

Idiot.

404, it's actually very easy to understand if you look at Ingenuity Capex, that's the whole purpose of the recently suggested demerger which has been called for by stakeholders for a long while.

Have you just arrived or woken from a long sleep?

And the long running conflict between MM and the city is widely known and discussed so I wouldn't be so quick to rule it out, the thumb screws are being turned in my opinion.

@APH01

I think you'll find that several financial analysts and institutions currently value THG a lot higher than what it is.

In light of recent announcements to go down the route of demerging Ingenuity and releasing SOTP value to appease investors I find it increasing difficult to comprehend who would at this time be selling. Surely it can't be LTH's? Not likely traders either as there can't be many with many with a lower entry point than where we are. I can only conclude that it's someone with the power and ability to depress the price with relentless sells, I honestly think it's something personal against Moulding and it won't stop until he's gone. MM's recent wobble is most likely as he's eventually realising he has no chance of winning this game.

Something has to give.

My AI when coupled with the SP performance since the latest update suggests no-one will believe a single word that comes out of Mouldings mouth until it actually happens, and he only has himself to blame for that.

So following in the footsteps of the CFO now a Senior Independent Director throws in the towel.

I'll leave further comment to those able to perhaps put a positive spin on this turn of events.

"I can see what's wrong with the SP the decimal point is in the wrong place. 🤔 so 570p is about right then?"

But meanwhile, in the real world, we can't even hold 56p 🤷

And yet with all of these positive developments here we are struggling to regain 60p 🤷

Apologies for the gibberish, small phone, fat thumbs and no glasses on 🤷

For what it's worth I invested in THG mainly for the future capabilities of Ingenuity with understanding that it was taking a huge volume of Capex to get it to where it to a position where it's unique and possibly hugely successful. I found it a little difficult to grasp just how many investors here appeared to invest in THG and then have a problem with this. By all accounts its possible to see where this Capex has been going but the SP has never reacted accordingly. It is unfortunate that it has taken a suggestion of a demerger to see all three divisions in a more positive light but having been here for what seems like a long time I'll certainly welcome any rerate that comes on the back of it.

Safe to say that news had a mixed reception, think most investors in the company would have been happier to never hear that man's name again. Money is money bits it's another complication they could have done without. All about the next set of numbers now....if they arrive on time.

Despite my earlier excitement at VRS picking up it's last contract it is displaying all the actions of s company going to the wall, i don't see it being around for much longer, I sense life support is about to be turned off.

I hope they can produce something soon to inspire some confidence and offer the SP some support, it's fallen a long way and giving no signs it will stop at 25p
