Says who?

Are we talking at cross purposes?

There was an RNS 24th Nov announcing the appointment of a bottling company in the US. Wasn’t there? Don’t think I imagined it.

Hope you are right m007j

Would be great to get back above 3p and stay there.

If we need to achieve £3.1m in revenue for 2022 having managed £2.8m the previous year then judging by what Tony Burt said in his recent interview we should be ok. He suggested quite clearly that revenues have grown.

RNS 24th Nov.

Playing devils advocate… I hope they get on with any deals quickly and before China invade Taiwan or else we’ll be in the midst of sanction city, just like so many investments in Russia went belly up.

RNS dated 15th Nov stated six to eight weeks. Bit pedantic perhaps but eight weeks was up two days ago. Is there a problem?? Hoping for big Meaty things here.

Let's hope the 150kgs have already arrived and are being sifted through as I type.... If those are good then the 100kgs will be shipped over and then hopefully it's bingo time! Easy innit.

And what might be a reasonable buyout price??

According to Google ARBK is up 25% pre open.

Not many admittedly DaveTK but... there are a few. For the sake of balance it's also worth saying there are few that have done as badly as EISB since Sept 2021 when the sp was at 20p. We're down 85% since then and there's the undercurrent of TP shenanigans which no one can be comfortable with, least of all Tony Burt.

Sam4224 - one thing in your post to correct ,if I may, but they have now sorted the bottling issue such that they won't need to ship empty bottles over from NZ to the USA. One small thing from which to take a crumb of comfort.

Personally I'm hoping they put the results out on Monday morning as that would demonstrate a degree of confidence. Put them out tomorrow, even worse, tomorrow afternoon, and I think we know where the sp will be heading.

Tony Burt needs to deliver some financial reward for existing share holders after two years of delivering a loss of two thirds of share value - yes, that's down 66%! - and also some promise of a decent return if he wants to attract new investors. The mcap is already dangerously low and suggests to anyone outside the company who Burt may need to ask for funding from that the company is in slightly dire straits. Not good terms on which to enter any negotiations.

Starres - how did you find those two reductions? If there's another one today then it does imply now could be the time to start loading up! I'm tempted I must say but I'm already in here with a horribly high average. Stick or twist...

Not sure what the obsession with intraday RNSs is about but, other than PMEs we’ve not actually had one since last March!

Anyway, hoping GSA closing will begin a steady increase in the sp over the next few weeks.

GSA being caught out by the recent Covid surge might explain why they are only now exiting rather than when the sp was 9p but no matter the reason it’s a good sign they’re getting out now imho

wow pdub. How amazing! All those positives. Just in the last two years.

Take a look at the Google chart for BMN from exactly two years ago to today. Clearly the market sees things very, very differently to you. Down 80%!!!

Still you can feel good about how much more comfortably well off FM is in those two years. Not quite the same for anyone investing in his company all that time. But no, we should feel good about the way things are according to you. We should feel confidence in our CEO being on a massive salary and taking extra for renting office space to the company and we should feel perfectly comfortable in having to pay his tax bills as well!

You're either a complete berk or FM himself or one of his cronies. I don't see how anyone in their right minds can be positive in how this company has REGRESSED - not progressed - in the last tow years. Many have lost significant amounts of money but I'm sure you're right. We should all feel good about it and happy for FM who has clearly done brilliant things for BMn and its share holders. If we just touch 5.5p again in the next year I'm out even if it means taking a loss. There's no way this is ever going to reward share holders with FM at the helm. It's not what he's interested in doing and the wider market absolutely doesn't trust him an inch. if you can't see that now after the last two years then more fool you.

well, if the trading update shows good figures having got the new bottling agreement set up in the US and a new distribution agreement in Vietnam AND we DON'T rise at all then I'll likely bail out too and do likewise. Disappointing that Burt has got himself and the company into this position with iis but we are where we are.

At the moment we are seeing about £5k sales every single day. I'm personally hoping those huge trades recently are TP unloading and that they continue as that could mean they're out in a couple of months and we could cope with continued selling at that rate of £5k a day without it damaging the sp too badly.

These results need to be good and investors will need to see some impact on the sp to show signs of hope. Crucial.

Well it certainly aint a good old short squeeze in the way I like them. GDR going nowhere and I really thought we'd be creeping north by now.

stockpickfree - TP may indeed have felt back in 2021 that policies weren't delivering value fast enough but having just delved into the statements that were released at the time of the rebuttal by the EISB BODs - on behalf of both parties - it is obvious the EISB Directors smelled a rat and were convinced TP together with some significant individual share holders were trying to take over the company by getting seats on the Board and doing an inside job without rewarding all the other existing share holders. Ever since then EISB has struggled to get its sp up and has in fact been on a pretty much steady decline and we are where we are.

What happens from here on in? Either TP have just decided they've had enough and will continue to steadily reduce its holding without trashing the share or they've still got some designs on the company and are attempting to weaken the current BODs and the CEO's position by deliberately damaging any potential rise the sp might otherwise enjoy on delivery of good news.

If it's the former then we'll just have to sit it out and be patient as it looks like TP still have about 50m shares (unless the recent trades for c17m shares was them unloading) and that could take a while for them to shift at this current price (approx £900k?).

If it's the latter then one way or another the CEO will continue to bash his head against a brick wall and we'll have to wait years for the company to start delivering value. This trading update is a make or break for me now I know more of what's gone on before hand.

I watched the most recent interview with the CEO and either he's fairly undynamic in his persona or he knows he's got one long uphill struggle on his hands because he doesn't convey any real excitement about what lies in the near future. Certainly not in his voice or body language. All fascinating but frustrating that we as pis don't really have a clue as to what's going on and why the company hasn't delivered any true value to ordinary share holders - by that I mean a simple increase in the value of the share price. Things might all look good on paper and be going in the right direction but we could be here for years waiting for some financial rewards.

So much for GSA Capital reducing their short position. If they are then they're being incredibly clever about it and managing to lower the price as they go. mms favours again?

If they are unloading then we should have had a TR1 if not two or three recently.

No one seems to know. Immensely frustrating share this and if the CEO can't sort it out and doesn't care about the sp then he's just not going to attract any investors at all! Trading update due tomorrow or Friday I think so maybe we'll get TR1s tomorrow alongside the update just to frustrate any potential rise? No idea what's going on and it makes me pretty uncomfortable holding.

Not sure we can already be in talks if the CEO has just bought shares. Wouldn’t that constitute insider trading?

So fly the 150kgs over first and get those tested and then ship over the bulk sample for testing? Makes sense to me bwtfdik

Talking a month maybe?
