Sometimes it’s not worth replying to people who genuinely believe they’re more astute than everyone else in the market. Let them parade their own ignorance. People can see who the clown is.

Nothing is brewing until we get told otherwise. Uallmake did do you not thing the guys bought in for a trade? Turnip.

If there is a bidding war for AudioBoom on the AIM market, I’d be impressed at how well any activity has been kept under wraps, especially since the current share price is already around the level of the supposed “premium bid”, suggesting there have been no leaks.

However, if a bidding situation does exist, I would expect some form of announcement before it concludes—particularly if AudioBoom has not yet accepted any offer. This could include an extension of the current process or even a temporary suspension of trading to manage volatility.

Ultimately, if the process is extended, it may indicate that multiple parties are involved and that AudioBoom is engaging with different bidders to establish value expectations. That said, this is just speculation on my part, so we’ll have to see how it develops.

The second Rule 2.9 RNS isn’t a catalyst on its own but what it does confirm is that BOOM remains firmly in an active offer period and is likely moving closer to the end of its strategic review (target June 2026).

They already issued this in Dec 2025 when the process began. Reissuing now suggests:

• the process is still live (not dropped)

• bidders likely still engaged

• company tightening disclosures ahead of potential formal offers

Maybe why they re-issued RULE 2.9:

There’s a new phase in the offer process

Signals movement from early discussions into more advanced / final-stage engagement with bidders.

• Share capital reconfirmation

Ensures all bidders are working off accurate, up-to-date share count before submitting formal offers.

• Approaching formal offer stage

Typically happens as timelines tighten and the company prepares for binding bids ahead of the June 2026 deadline.

Any serious buyer still has to go through full due diligence — digging into the books, validating forecasts, checking liabilities, reviewing contracts etc etc. That process always takes time, even when headline figures are already public.

A buyout isn’t off the table just because it hasn’t landed quickly. These things often move in phases: initial interest, NDA, data‑room access, deeper financial and legal checks, then negotiation on valuation. If multiple parties are involved, it slows things even more.

That said, the board can’t leave shareholders in limbo indefinitely. I agree, at some point they do need to update the market with a clear RNS, even if it’s just to confirm where the process stands. Not long left.

For now, it’s simply a case of due diligence still needing to run its course — nothing more, nothing less.

Boom - you maybe correct in term of the language they can use. Really do hope I am wrong as like many holders I want a price more than 1000.

They’ve only said bids are at a premium to 540p (pre-offer price). That confirms there are real offers on the table, but it’s quite careful wording. Doesn’t mean a big premium to where we are now — just means bids are above where this started.

Note they didn’t say: “premium to the current share price”

They said: premium to 2 October 2025 (pre-offer period price)

That’s a very deliberate choice and this is why I believe we will need a bidding ‘war’ to get £10+. Hope I am wrong.

They maybe protecting flexibility by not committing to the premium of the current price. Impossible to know.

I’d have been more happy if they stated, “significant premium”, “premium to current market price”.

Comes down to how many serious bidders are left. If there are 2+ pushing each other, price can move up late in the game.

Of course if AB are taken privately, knowing what we know how other companies in AIM work, could mean an undervalued sell with the board shafting the PI’s. Hope that’s not the case.

The bottom line is the proper process underway and bids exist — but the final price depends on whether this turns into a real fight or not.

Yes, yes — it’s 2 months old, though I’m not sure if that even matters. I can still see users who haven’t messaged in months, or some who haven’t messaged at all, so…

Once again the pump is back for “results”. Seeing a few more fresh accounts popping up and pushing the same narrative. Honestly, nothing about this looks like a leak to me. Just more noise trying to stir things up.

Hope there is a surprise when results are given otherwise this will once again be sold into.

He’ll probably disappear from this board once he’s taken his 10% gains. It’s interesting—people tend to get attacked when they’re being balanced in their views, but if someone keeps ramping relentlessly, no one seems to mind. Funny how that works. Even as a holder, I’ve been told I’m “confused” just for trying to stay balanced. It feels like the long-term holders end up revealing who’s not thinking things through

Oh master you again. Trump can’t even finish a colouring book without claiming he invented the crayons. He’s a war mongering idiot - you on the other hand are just an idiot.

Gains - just remain quiet. It will be better for you.

AUDIOBOOM seems to have completely stalled in terms of momentum. It’s natural that some traders and long-term holders have sliced or fully sold some of their position, but the reality is that there hasn’t been any substantial news recently—no buyout updates, merger talks, or major developments—which explains the share price being down from its highs around 800p.

Perhaps the board is remaining silent while something is brewing behind the scenes, such as a potential business deal or merger. Who knows? What we really need is some meaningful news to reignite momentum—maybe the Q1 results could provide that spark.

I’m a long-term holder myself, so these fluctuations aren’t materially concerning, but it’s still frustrating to see the share price drop by 50%.

Don’t be so upset about it going down — you seem very emotional. Bless. Prices usually go up when there are more buyers than sellers… which, as you might have noticed, isn’t exactly the case right now. Just a little extra analysis for you.

It may have a little to do with the war and the selling that followed. Some investors were also waiting—like you—for the price to regain traction after dipping to around 550. However, that didn’t happen, so traders started selling to avoid the risk of a further plunge in the share price.

At the moment, I can see the share price stabilising and hovering around this level until there’s further news. From there, we might see some momentum build again. Hopefully the broader geopolitical situation improves too—leaders like Trump and Bibi need to stop behaving like tyrants and causing further chaos. 📉📊🌍

Let me explain what I meant by my “more than excellent” comment. The SP isn’t going to move much with an increase of a few million in revenue. I know you prefer a one-way street of pumping, but that’s not going to happen here—so sit down

Gains we do not know that. Stop spreading false information. If there is a recovery, then it will be when Q1 results are released next month . They have to be more than excellent for a quick turnaround. I am realist.

Gains you should really close your mouth. You probably have given this the kiss of death for now. Stop making a fool out of yourself.

I don’t think we’ll see much traction in the share price until the Q1 results, given everything that’s happening globally. Personally, I believe the advertising and podcasting space is becoming increasingly important for Western governments as a way to influence public opinion.

Q1 is typically the slowest period, but I can still see the company delivering solid revenue. If that happens, it should demonstrate that AB is still on the right track.

Yes gains. Takeover announcement - yes maybe of a takeover not happening. Mergers maybe.

Thick skinned and desperate - I’ll give you that. Just let it flow up, just like it’s doing.
