I have had a lengthy conversation with TH.and have to say that I was most encouraged by what he had to say..Firstly ,he the board and Institutional SH,s are in total unity on the direction and the value of the new acquisition,their sentiment stands in clear contrast to ours.(given they have more information too ).I made it clear that I felt more should have been done to support the SP, but I can see that there were a number of factors which prevented TH making statements ,and taking the actions that i wanted from him ,one being ICAAN approval process,which could have been made more complex without the stance taken.,.think back to how long .Boston took to be approved.. ,another limiting factor was the closed period .I made the point that VIP should have been active and he correctly pointed out that the prime renewal season is the worst time to do this.( I'm still of the opinion that there should have been some kind of tld sales action),..I know he regrets the loss of sentiment amoung PIs.but also assured that there will be increased news flow ,updates on VIP renewals ,shopping plus additional news flows throughout H2 on certain innovations as per RNS."The news wire is going to be active.""The acquisition will quickly reveal it's strength to us and to the market." ..In addition the integration of our new acquisition is straight forward and provides no difficuties.I questioned TH at length ,argued even .I think im pretty good at detecting spin and a lack of direction, there was only strongly argued detail and a strong sense of direction.Although I can't agree with TH on every point,hence a little heated debate at times,I do have absolute confidence that the man who saved this company is also securing it's long term future.He has my support.
