Update on offer

Further to this morning's announcements that Cinch Holdco UK Limited ("Cinch") intends to vote against the Acquisition and that Lookers was re-engaging with other shareholders to understand whether the resolutions required to effect the Scheme of Arrangement in order to implement the Acquisition (the "Resolutions") are capable of being passed, the Lookers Directors now believe that shareholders representing in excess of 25% of the voting rights of the Company intend to vote against the Resolutions and therefore that the Resolutions are not capable of being passed.

Brixton - Based on the figures you provided (£975.00) in winnings to date (Apr - to Jul) this equates to a 1.95% (tax free) return (so far!). Yes you could get a higher return elsewhere but the chance of winning a major prize is still a draw for many - me included. Continued good fortune with your bonds and also with your LLoy shares. May your gains always exceed your losses. Good fortune to one and all. Regards, S

Things can only get better for PB's

From the August 2023 prize draw, the prize fund rate will increase to 4.00% from 3.70%, its highest level since 2007. The odds will improve to 22,000 to 1 from 24,000 to 1, meaning that each £1 Bond will have its best chance of winning a prize in almost 15 years.

NS&I estimates that the changes will see an extra £30 million added to the prize fund from August, with an estimated 460,000 extra prizes up for grabs.

Looking at the large number of buys continuing to go through individuals may well be anticipating a further offer. As I said previously i still think this offer slightly undervalues Lookers so may well see some other company come in with an increased bid. The current offer only values the company at just over 5 years profits. Either way this is still good for all fellow shareholders. Continued good fortune to one and all. Rgds S

Andsoforth - Thanks for taking the time to post that link. Much appreciated. I think the price they are talking about (120p) still undervalues the company slightly. I think we should be looking at around 135 -145pps. Still happy with the news. Thanks again. Rgds S

Still continuing to buy both TW and VTY. Both decent contributors to the dividend fund!!!!

Well following yesterdays announcement of the "Special Dividend" all fellow shareholders will be pleased to hear that as a result of yesterdays share buy back of 1,011492 shares the company has saved having to pay out £121,379.04p from the Special Dividend. Now with all that money saved, and more based on future buy backs, surely that means there is more to give out to all of us!!!!! Well it was just a thought and as I put in the title it is Friday Lite Humour. Continued good fortune to all GFRD shareholders, those considering buying and to those just watching. Per Ardua Ad Astra. Regards S

Excellent news!!! GFRD announces the payment of a special dividend as a result of funds received. 12pps, Xd 5 Oct 23, Pd 27 Oct 23. Rgds, S

Dividend of 1.575pps. Xd 15 Jun 23. Pd 7 Jul 23. Rgds, S

In ii already - automatic re-investment will take place on Wed. Rgds, S

Well here we are once again with yet another "Dividend Day". Money in the account and yet another welcome contribution to the coffers. A decent share, a decent return and a decent way to build up the contributions within an ISA. Continued good fortune to all AIRE investors, those considering investing in AIRE and to those just watching. Regards, S

Monies in accounts here also. Also going for automatic dividend re-investment @ £0.99 per account. Rgds S

Rock - Thank them when you the shares make you some money lol. Was fortunate to serve on same units as 48 & 26 Sqn during my time.

Per Ardua ad astra

Dividend day once again. Monies in accounts already and to top it all it's Friday. What's not to like!!! Rgds S

Ii reinvest dividends (if you elect for re-investment) within two working days and for the pricely sum of £0.99p. To date all my dividends have been paid in to my accounts by 9am on day due.

Correction "losses" not "loses" OCD kicked in and could not leave it!!!!

Hi Truro, Like you I have been in here for a long time. Just had a look back on my contract notes and 13 Mar 2006 (15.45pps) was my maiden purchase!!!! Looks like we have shared the same path. I hope the call that we both made back in the days proves to be the right call and I would like to see that sooner rather than later though considering how long we both have been in here............. I still continue to have faith in this company but as you say we could have a game changer. Keep the faith and may your gains always exceed your loses. Rgds S

Whilst the latest news on this partnership is well received what I actually would like to see is monies actually coming through the accounts and ultimately a reflective increase in the share price. It seems like we have waited a lifetime for approvals and contracts to be processed but when we actually start to see a well deserved rise in the share price that for me will be when this company has started to turn things around. Looking forward to the next set of results and to actually get an update on how much is going to start flowing in to the coffers!! Continued good fortune to all HDD investors, those considering investing in here and those just watching. Rgds S

Well here we are once again on yet another dividend day. Monies in all accounts already and gratefully received as always. When it comes to generating a decent dividend return, and not to mention 4 times a year, what is not to like. As always continued good fortune to all RLE investors, potential investors or those just watching this share. May your gains always exceed your losses. Rgds S

Share has gone xd today so that covers the drop.
