It's been said time and time again.

Let's keep it real. MB has proven he cannot be trusted.

The market has lost confidence in Matad and rightly so.

It's time for Buck to deliver to expectations, no more hypes and talks, we want actions and results!

No good saying things will SOON happen, instead, how about just DELIVERING them.

What's holding them back?

10 years not enough time for them to sort themselves out?

£190 million isn't enough to get one well onto production on a satisfactory level?

H1 went from 821bopd to being choked back to 200bopd. Turns out it was 160bopd and latest report was 150bopd. MB once again wasn't transparent with shareholders.

What happened to the H1 & H2 well modification and production ramp up?

This company operates on new hopes and raises, but nothing ever materializes like the JV and farm in talks that has been ongoing for 10 years. The plan (or should I say hype) to become a sufficiently self-funded company seems like it can only exist in fantasy.

Cash won't last in the Matad bank, they will require heavy funding and Borzon alone will require a whopping £14.9miion over 8 years.

The long term holders have all lost money here. Gone are the days people invest based on empty promises and trust, time to show some results.

If MB is that incompetent, then perhaps he should find a job at the local corner shop selling chewing gums instead.

All in my opinion and DYOR

There's definitely a bad smell here.

It looks like Haywood is settling himself up nicely for rewarding Christmas...

Perhaps a festive bonus or another 16% interest loan....who knows...

Loved to be proven wrong but I doubt it...

The SP has dropped from 15p high and have never recovered....

Don't think this Christmas would change anything either...

MB is the master manipulation.

Today's news has nothing of substance, it's just merely an update to say a proposal has been received, the dangling carrot continues....

I won't be surprised if there are no deal reached, or that it ends up being a very bad one for Matad...

But, today's news serves the purpose for more speculation, often it's these vague and lack of context news that would open up a lot of room for the hypes...

I would caution people to think twice before investing their hard earns

Remember, these guys blew near £200millions and the SP went from £2 to sub1p

DYOR

Matad could be giving away 80% of the block xx acreage for a £20million farm in deal.

Let's get real here, I don't think MB is a good negotiator.

The SP sinks lower with each passing year...

Remember this was £2 at some point.

Who would have thought the SP would go below 1 p.

Another breaking record with each Christmas, the company must have raised close to £200 millions of accumulated funds overall.

Money thrown into the black holes are getting higher while the SP sinks lower.

Begs the question if Matad would make it to Christmas 2026 with so many hurdles unresolved.

They probably will but the SP by then would probably be 0.020.

Another year of hope for PIs to reclaim back their original investment.

It's a proposal....in black and white.

It means nothing is set and nor do we know the terms.

The deal could be sheeet for MATD.

Looking forward to official news...

Meanwhile, the SP sinks lower with each passing year...

Remember the year 2019 when the share price was much higher. Many PIs were looking forward to a rewarding Christmas with some fat turkey.

It's nearly 2026 and that Christmas PIs had hoped for never came.

I wonder how many people regretted not listening to the infamous Mike who cautioned everyone, while Ajames who have completely disappeared in shame after numerous ramps since the 15p days.

It's another Christmas to look forward to but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Did anyone mention project Atlantic Bastion....and Whitespace and Defence Technogys main players taking lunch with our good sea lord recently.........

Perhaps they were having bullish brownies topped up with breakout breads...

Forkin muppet Matt telling us Palantir and Bae are good buys when both stocks have already matured.

Our journey has just begun and have massive upside potential. It's easy to compare businesses in the same sector and all, but he totally missed the point about people investing here for the potential x number of bags.

Let's get real, who doesn't know big blue chip companies have already found success. It's for that reason their share price is where they are at.

One thing for sure big blue chip companies are unlikely to multi-bag.

Just for the record though:

Palintir share price is 181.49 USD.

Bae share price is 1,707.50p

Meanwhile, our share price is 1.5p

Thank you for comparing DH/Whitespace with their competitors.

Massive upside potential right there.

To cut short:

When the SP goes down, the TW story kicks in.

When the SP goes up, this is the stock of the century.

You just gotta larffff at how fake these bulletin boards are.

UK and NATO Nations Ramp up Response to Putin’s Aggression in Ukraine and Incursions into Europe:

6. Whitespace, Google and Defence Holdings PLC Partner to Operationalise the UK’s Information Advantage

7. Whitespace Appoints Technology Veteran Dan Braden-Astbury as Chief Operating Officer to Spearhead Growth in Secure AI

9. Defence Holdings PLC Names Hyperscale Provider for Project Ixian

Why are the TW supporters so quiet?

They had been rather persistent in spreading false information in the past, but now suddenly all disappeared after TW got into trouble.

I doubt any of TW's lackeys would dare to post in support of his actions now that he is in trouble.

Where did all the [b]ankers go? You know, the ones that help posting TW's links to spread fear?

It's been a coordinated operation all along, now that TW are under investigation, the digital forensic team would gather evidence.

The intentional posting of misleading information to in attempt to manipulate the share price is an act of financial fraud.

I should also add that if WhiteSpace/Defence Holdings gets awarded a contract/or contracts, then that achievement alone will provide credibility for the team.

It would extinguish the doubters especially the noise coming from TW.

It would be a huge step towards establishing trust with MoD/NATO. It would be the beginning towards building a relation with the key players.

The utmost importance, it confirms WhiteSpace/Defence Holdings as a recognised business to gain acknowledgement from MoD/NATO.

December or January, I'm not too fussed about it. Though if things happen in December, it would give further credibility to the team for meeting goalposts.

I'm more interested on the scale of the contract(s) and the details. Things I will be looking forward to will be:

- How much participation will WhiteSpace/Defence Holdings get from collaboration with Google/Oracle

- How much Revenue stream is projected and the size of the market

- The nature of the project for us to estimate it's further potential into the future.

- All in all, should the contract relate to MoD (and it should be), then how much demand are we looking at from the UK MoD. Eg: let's say if the MoD needed 10,000 units as opposed to 100 units, then there is a massive difference in supply.

- Of course, let's not forget there should be a second product also with collaboration with a major tech company.

DYOR

The bullet points highlighted all points towards favourable outcomes for Whitespace/Defence holdings to be awarded a contract/or multiple contracts.

Thought it says it's not guaranteed for balance, the action plan is evident that WhiteSpace/Defence Holdings are heading that way. They are definitely in bed with key players, NATO, MoD, Google, and Oracle.

🚀 For fun, I have asked ChatGPT :

Question) What are the chances of WhiteSpace being award a contract from NATO?

Answer) That’s a really good and timely question. Short answer: there’s a credible chance that Whitespace could win some sort of NATO-contract, but it's not guaranteed.

Why Whitespace Has a Reasonable Shot:

1) Strong Strategic Positioning:

Whitespace has a strategic partnership with Defence Holdings PLC (LSE: ALRT) to deliver sovereign AI infrastructure.

Their “CollectiveOS” is designed for regulated, secure environments (e.g. air-gapped systems, defence) which aligns very well with what NATO might want for sensitive AI applications.

In fact, their first AI application (built on CollectiveOS) is already in development for the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD).

They’re aiming for allied adoption, not just the UK: their platform “has long-term deployment potential … to support our NATO allies.”

They’re working with Google, which gives a path to “NATO-aligned adoption via Google’s sovereign cloud” according to Whitespace itself.

On top of that, they’ve formed a more structured “delivery vehicle” called Defence Technologies, specifically for sovereign AI deployment.

They already have credibility: CollectiveOS has been used in classified defence environments, including on a UK naval platform.

Recent collaboration announced with Oracle to deploy via Oracle Cloud.

They’ve also demonstrated to the House of Lords’ Select Committee on Defence and International Relations, which speaks to visibility and legitimacy.

2) Favourable Procurement Environment

NATO recently agreed a new procurement policy (in July 2025) that “empowers agile procurement … particularly in evolving technology and service.”

This new policy could be much more favourable to “software-first / AI-first” companies like Whitespace, compared to legacy hardware defense contractors.

3) Eligibility & Process

NATO contracting processes are open to companies from NATO member states.

There are rigorous checks (pre-award surveys) for financial stability, capability, etc.

NATO procurement is based on both technical merit and cost-effectiveness.

There’s no inherent bias against smaller/agile firms if they can demonstrate capability. According to NATO’s contracting rules, size doesn’t necessarily give unfair advantage: “it seeks the best and most cost-effective solution … regardless of the size of the firm.”
