Said, maybe, at the end of the year after the all four of the spin-outs were done.

In that case I think I might register Opan Orphen or Ballbag Pharma, just for the craic. :)
Do a line of personalised T-sharts with slogans like, "watch this space", "Buy-in for the Spin-out", "Keep calm and ignore the tree shake" or my personal fave, " It's strange that you never saw Warren Buffett and Longinvestor in the same room".

So, assword, is that your plan? Buy a load today, get your freebies, then sell for less on Monday. After your "tumble".
Sounds like a great idea. lol
;)

Had visions of flying into Dublin on the back of a large eagle and seeing the two towers.
Sounds all very LotR, Bronx. :)

Regardless of whether it suits me or suits you, sir. It's always been the case from the outset, as was outlined in the circular.
So not sure why this is a surprise now, tbh.
It has been said to expect a news rich period following this and the EOY results, so it will be good to finaly get this done and out of the way .
GLA, Si. :)

Now

Gift horse's mouths comes to mind when I read these kind of posts.
Maybe hold off ordering the Porches just yet guys. lol
I'll happy knowing that my holdings value maybe somewhere North of here if I keep holding. :)

Just having a quick look at the days trades. Can see AR's buy at 14:55. But JW's is split between 14:31 and 14:48. Cannae Scot that he is was probably waiting for a better price. lol Not that getting one of the cheapest prices in years ain't bad.
Good timing lads. :) Maybe the 40k is from the chairman. Sorry, can't recal his name. Oops!
Is this one of those times when some wag says, "chuncky buys coming in, somebody knows something".
No?

Evening Jabido. Not long in and just checking in. Saw the red dot and wondered if I'ld missed something important as I was half tempted to have a quick punt this morning. Decided not to in the end and went to work.
Yes, it's a bit pathetic if it was meant as a good guesture.
Could be assumed that if they are "buying" lol, then they are not in a closed period? And as such, no earth shattering news due at the mo.

At least you understood enough to give an answer, WG. lol
Don't know about numerate. I'ld focus on articulate. :)

Yes, the assets, as a whole, look very impressive on a website. But, they were cheap for a reason and he's got to stop buying more. They just need to get the ones they have busy with actual pysical contracts. Not waiting on pipedream, projected pipeline stuff.
I think JW sees himself as a one man saviour of shipyards and seems to love the limelight. Loves a bit of hobknobbing with the likes of the PM and royalty. Just needs a cape for his red boilersuit.

" And now the BOD admits they need a new Chairman and NED"
I was surprised to read we had one, let alone need a new one.
Not seen this anywhere, Nobby.
Not in the usual places, that is.
Care to expand?

Agree. LTH's won't be disproportionately bothered, I would imagine.
Obviously others may exaggerate any negatives, whilst some may overemphasise the positives. Depending on their trading stance at the time. That's to be expected. imo
The bottom line for me is, "is my money doing okay here?"
Well, after a five fold increase last year and a further 40% increase, so far, this year.
I guess it's not bad, I spose. Mustn't grumble. :)
And that's before things really start to kick in.

True. But was thinking more of them holding results back to then be followed by news.
As a set of lacklustre results could be offset by better news.
If not, why not get them out of the way ages ago.

Last years results finished six months ago at the completion of what was a very good year. IMO
We started the year at 5p and finished at 25.80p. That to me is a sign that we did something right.

Regardless of what CF has said or intermated at, they will be what they are, a look back at the previous year. And TBH, most will just cast a cursory eye over them before looking for the next thing to focus on. Probably the interims for this year. lol

I think that they have probably been finalised for some time but they have delayed the signing off process before publishing them at a time to coincided with other news. I say that as they were supposedly going to be published a while back and I can't see any other reason to delay them. Weather that is to use other news to soften the blow or get it out of the way first before one almighty "blow the doors off" RNS for spin-out news.

It could be said that second guessing the details or speculating at the allocation of contracts is somewhat irrelevant. But it is an interesting discussion, nonetheless. Until the actual details are known, that is.

Can't buy any more , ATM, and not seeling any. So what will be....

Don't think there is any "has to" about it, to be fair, Stokey. It either will or it won't.
But, I guess a lot can happen in two months. But then, historically speaking, so can bugger all.

Here's what is left to finalise the deal.

Tranche 2 on the first anniversary of Completion of £1.50million:
A total of £1.50million consisting of cash of £1.20million and Ordinary Shares in the Company equivalent to £300,000
Tranche 3 on the second anniversary of Completion:
A total of £2million consisting of cash of £1.60million and Ordinary Shares in the Company equivalent to £400,000
Tranche 4 on the 30th month anniversary of Completion:
A total of £2million consisting of cash of £1.60million and Ordinary Shares in the Company equivalent to £400,000

So after the next payment is done there will be a further 18 months to find £3.2m in cash. Which with a few decent actual paying contracts is doable. I would hope.
And the equivalent of £800k in shares. Jeeze, thats less than a cheeky bonus to some. :)

Indeed. And a big change in size of trades over the last half hour. It maybe that some have realised that this is as far as it was going to fall and waiting for the low 30's maybe not be on the cards. No good keeping your powder dry for the sake of a few fractions of a penny. This will only build from here as the timeline gets eaten away. IMO

Last year the results were posted on the 24th, so maybe you can knock off a week.

Ah, you posted it whilst I was looking. :)

Thanks. Eventually tracked it down to be OP HOLDCO 2021 LIMITED. :)
