Nice one Stuy1, you very much sense this is a business that got ahead of itself and lost their way, both operationally and commercially, but Peter Presland’s more recent activity is clearly more structured and you can start to understand why Align have stepped away from the EGM requisition, rather than creating unnecessary distractions at a key stage,
Alternative funding has to be the key priority now and in light of recent news and the material reduction of £400k of overhead, this will alter the amount of funds needed, if we also see the Smarcellls deal deliverying meaningful contribution in the short term, I am sure funding options will open up, for all we know they may have already done so?and the recent measures could potentially be conditions applied to that new funding,
Once (and if) the recent equity swap and bond/clon arrangements are cancelled and based on the tone of the GM RNS, hopefully a lot of work is going on in the background to unravel the company from that finance deal, we could finally see the business a lot of people believe is there and with their IP being so exceptional and unlike anyone else in this space, big reward could be within their grasp, but big risk is also very apt, Cheers S.
Btw - I note you are on Twitter, is there a discussion group for WDC?
