Is there a "Letter of Representation" we can get?

Anyone done something similar before

Question if someone could answer.

Whole headcount can't be changed should retail be also filing the proxy forms as well as voting via broker?

Can this be done and does it help the SoA address that 1 vote from HL is actually 200 retail investors.

Short answer: yeah, usually profitsniffer is being sarcastic — and people find it funny for that reason.

Here’s why their stuff tends to land as humor:

Ultra-dry delivery

They’ll drop something blunt or oddly phrased with zero explanation. That deadpan tone is doing the comedic work.

Mocking finance seriousness

In LSE chats where people overanalyze markets, a username like profitsniffer posting minimalist or slightly off comments feels intentionally ironic.

“I’m above this” energy

It often reads like: I see your 20-paragraph analysis and raise you one stupidly simple observation. That contrast is the joke.

Absurd confidence

Saying something vague or obvious as if it’s profound = classic sarcasm.

That said — the humor is very niche:

If you’re tuned into finance-bro irony, it’s funny.

If you take comments literally, it can just sound dumb or annoying.

It’s not “haha” funny — more smirk, eyebrow-raise funny.

So verdict: 👉 Yes, profitsniffer is almost certainly being sarcastic. 👉 Funny if you get the bit; confusing if you don’t.

If you want, paste one exact profitsniffer line and I’ll decode exactly what flavor of sarcasm it is 😏

All No votes from me, good luck All holders.

Vote this crap down, 28p.is not fair price for our assets.

We can't make another buyer appear but it's soon time stand up and be counted.

Switch of from the gloom merchants.

Would you sit on plane next to someone who talked constantly about the dangers of flying?

That's right Chase, let's do what we can and get the votes in when needed.

I have contacted my broker today to find out when they will be sending out voting links.

I shall post once I have details.

In the meantime we have the small chance that another bidder enters the game.

Chase, ignore profitsniffer as he has tourettes.

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. It typically begins in childhood, often between the ages of 5 and 7, and is estimated to affect about 1% of school-aged children globally. While it is a lifelong condition, symptoms frequently peak in the early teens and significantly improve as individuals transition into adulthood.

Vote it down

Board out Maxit out.

Dee Valley Group (2017) — scheme defeated

Small-cap utility takeover

Institutions supported the deal

Retail voted it down on headcount

Court refused to sanction after the vote failed

Lesson:

Retail can and has killed schemes when sufficiently mobilised.

🟧 Case 2: Electra Private Equity / Unbound (2021) — near miss

Very unpopular valuation with long-term holders

Retail turnout surged

Scheme passed, but by a thin headcount margin

🔑 Lesson:

Angry, value-focused retail materially increases execution risk — even if they don’t quite win.

🟧 Case 3: Hurricane Energy (2021) — different structure, same energy

Retail argued asset value was ignored

Heavy mobilisation

Ultimately lost, but forced restructuring changes and delays

🔑 Lesson:

When retail believes assets are being sold too cheaply, they show up.

🟨 Case 4: Multiple mining-sector schemes

Across UK mining deals:

Schemes usually pass when:

premium is obvious

asset is mature or declining

Schemes struggle when:

asset is long-life / tier-one

valuation is narrative-driven

recent third-party validation exists (👋 Franco-Nevada)

Do jcc still have the clock ticking on the Franco royalty?

Needs to be done and dusted with enough time to buyback the royalty which in think is November?
