I can see why traders who lack real patience or
currently feel burnt would want a spike but that's a rather narrow minded stance IMO and it's short term.
I've been an LTH in other stocks that have taken years to mature but when they do, its well worth the wait and doesn't carry any of the short term risks that trying to trade a stock carries.
I want to see consistent, sustainable, profitable, scalable growth here so that in the next few years we see a transformation that not many other companies are capable of and I believe we are already well on that journey.
But I completely see why traders currently sitting at a loss would want a spike.

Itacon,
I wouldn't say we should expect it. If the BoD view all or part of Gfin the same way they viewed the Livescores part of Quanta then in my personal view its entirely possible we may at some point look to buy all or part of the business particularly if we can make it profitable where the current Gfin board can't.
Don't read this the wrong way, I don't expect it per say, I just wouldn't be surprised to see it. Gfin is a different beast compared to Quanta which has to be taken into consideration too.

As someone willing to hold for a number of years here, I'm personally delighted with the current situation. Yes the SP could be a little higher but business costs investment and we're still very much at that stage. I still thoroughly believe that we'll be laughing in the next few years.

I understand your frustration but a lot of the timings here are not within the control fo the BoD. I think they've just had to move with the flow as best they can and capitalise on opportunity that may present itself. There's no way they could have known that a few weeks after their first discussion regarding a partnership with Gfin that the Gfin SP would tumble and that it would present a buying opportunity and an opportunity to position MOS as a key stakeholder for future deals.
I don't think anyone has realised quite how valuable that could be. Look at livescores and what we did there. It wouldn't surprise me if we plan to do the same thing in the next few years here.

I'm seeing a lot of people getting edgy about the actions leading up to and after the placing, at the lack of news in the past few weeks, at what people think is a lack of clarity from the BoD etc.

Business takes time people. We were all ranting and raving when we were getting a new territory announced or a new deal every week or two. That sort of activity simply isn't normally on AIM. We've become used to expecting the company to deliver an RNS every week or two even if there isn't anything of substantial value to announce.

Gfin is just taking time to iron out details. Do i think the placing was rushed? Yes. Do I think the board did it for the right reasons and do I think they jad a very clear strategy in their heads? Absolutely. Do i think they have acted in our best interest? 100%. The placing may have appeared as rushed but opportunity doesnt hang about and I'd personally rather the deal we agree is capitalised upon. If this takes several weeks to iron out then I am 100% behind that.

I urge patience here. Any other AIM company would give their right hand for a news stream like we have had, any other AIM company would have an SP to reflect the positive news, revs and profitability that we are heading towards.

Take a step back and observe what we've been through, where we've come from, where we're going and compare what we've got and the news that been delivered to that of pretty much any other AIM company out there. Your faith in this company is not misplaced.

Whether or not the current SP is a reflection of the way the previous BoD was seen, I don't know but we're going to be getting revenue updates fairly soon and the numbers always talk. I'm fully expecting to see a significant trend upwards revenue and when it comes to this industry, scalability leads to profitability.

I'm holding long, not sold or traded a penny. Averaged down considerably given the buying opportunity available here and I wait patiently for next updates.

What's unacceptable about it?
They can't tell us what they aren't cleared to say by the NOMAD yet.
We've had news after news so they clearly want to tell us what they can, as soon as they can.
Look at any other business and JVs or large contracts can take months if not years to agree.
We're just too used to having the silver spoon of news here I think
Some more patience needed here I think.

I don't think you're getting what he's saying mate.

Also "People who own the shares of a company that performs well get rewarded, that has nothing to do with knowledge"
That is nonsensical... the first part is fair enough but it is precisely the knowledge that they have that allows people to make informed decisions on investments. Knowledge is the fundamental basis of decision-making that most investors follow. To say that being in a company has nothing to do with knowledge is completely untrue.

You talk some amount of Ballz Steve. Away back down your gutter you cretin. You spoil enough of these boards to last a life time
