Absolutely no chance in the world this is getting sold in the £2's, zero chance. Full stop.

It was offered £4billion 4 years ago when revenue was £700m, this year it will hit £2.7billion. Sell for 1x revenue??? What world do people live in, when he didn't sell for 6x revenue back then. People are bonkers and haven't done any research, and now all of a sudden so called experts!

He is in a unique position with his golden share, he can refuse all ridiculous offer.

Even at a paltry 2x 2022 revenue, it's already £4 a share!!!

Is it 100% confirmed Matt is mates with Candy?

Probably been told, mate the few billion you were gona pile into Chelsea FC, use it to buy out THG, the rest of us will simply roll over in the private company! In 2-3 years your money will be multiples when we list it in the US! LOL

POSTI - Fully agree with you! Males total sense.

Matt and BOD have already decided exactly whats going to happen here, decision has been made private is the 'best environment' to operate in!

No chance in the world he is simply handing over THG to PE on the cheap! £4 billion was too less in 2018, £7 a share last year was too less hence separation plan!!

Going ahead with strategic plan, for Premium listing, he knows he has to drop the golden share, at that point he knows with the manipulators in the market, they can snatch THG for nothing. Hence staying on market has been scrapped altogether.

Private it is, absolutely dont blame him, for us PI's hope the price is right! Has to be towards IPO, otherwise alot of disgruntled people.

Softbank and Sofina paid £5.96 12 months ago, if they retain the % equity simply in a private arena, happy as larry. In 2 years when it lists in US for multiples, they will be more than happy!

@Eph - In good time, forget 170p, it will be SIGNIFICANTLY higher!

Look at homeserve. Offer confirmed and accepted at 1200p, yet share price is 1160p. Even on an agreed offer it will never reach its target! Hedge funds and institutions buy everything available, and PI's sell up, therefore they cream everything of the top! Easy peasy moneyin the bank for them!

@Goldy - anything is possible!!! £4 is very realistic.

Had peeps saying for weeks and months PE bid is never going to come aswel, oh well.

Always look up, not down!

They have put in a 'chancer' offer!
(Like we all do on ebay on hope and nothing else;))

Ultimate the current price is completely irrelevant, depends how much the actual business is worth!! And we all know nowhere down here!

MM holds all the cards, full stop!

HH - What is going on with Iain McDonald. Been a NED with THG for 12 years, how could he have the nerve to make such a derisory offer and hostile one at that.

Surely he knows MM has the golden share. And he must know MM is never ever going to consider selling anywhere near 170p. Why then indicate that offer? He must be in conversations with MM regularly, no!

Is this some sort of a bigger plan which will fall into place over coming days/weeks??

To me it just has taking it private all over it!!! MM is simply not going to hand over a company he has built for 20years at 1 -1.5 x revenue. If anyone got it at that, they laughing all the way to the bank!

Total Volume - 37.9 million
After Hours - 5.4million

????

That has to be the highest day volume ever.

And did say plenty of games still going on. Algos flatlined it to hold the price at this level for the big boys to trade!

Licker - don't get me started!!!

Manipulation manipulation manipulation!

Highest volume day ever, 35 million+, and it pretty much flatlined for 6 hours, can't make it up Lmao

Let's just wait for the big boy after hour trades, guessing we will have some sizeable ones!

After hours RNS anyone? or 7am monday after a further Private Equity Groups put their hat in the ring?

Aftre hour trades will be interesting, let's see how many have escaped again!

Listen to webinar 1 hr 18mins

'What is the best environment for THG to thrive in'

Hint was there, whichever way, PE or Management Buyout, its going private!

After 8 months of silence, no doubt MM must know what the end game is.

He holds all the cards.

It's upto everyone else to show there's now!

He will have played all the strategic moves, this move has been coming.

Absolute minimum value = 170 + Significantly Undervalued (billion dollar question!)

And Homeserve sold yesterday for £4 Billion.

Private Equity are awash with cash, all finding a home. With the pound/dollar, UK companies look even cheaper than before (If US Buying ofcourse)

If you know anything about THG, you will never see a more manipulated share price, why we are where we are today!!

Yesterday 10.31 million shares were traded AFTER HOURS (1 trade alone 5.2 million!!). Big boys conduct all their activity after hours. Let's see todays shenanigans later!

Been going on for weeks, 1m/2m trades on a daily basis after hours for a few weeks.

Reminder to any newbies..

https://www.retailgazette.co.uk/blog/2018/09/hut-group-rejected-3-9bn-takeover-bids-continues-aggressive-growth/

Revenues was £700m, 2022 forecast £2.7 Billion

Current market cap is about 1/3 of what was offered back then!

THINK ABOUT IT!

Did warn everyone this morning, finest 'experts' will arrive in their droves, giving there advice. Ones who have never posted, but suddenly feel the urge to tell everyone they have sold and why. Cant make it up LMAO
