Don't forget Mo's options Ricky

Bit confused - why are Octopus laughing all the way to the bank? They have lost a small economy on this so far!

🙄

I agree Bazzaman. I suspect that CF thought this was a good deal for shareholders and wasn't expecting the price to head south so rapidly (if at all if he could sell the long term benefits of the deal). Now he has to do a "spin job" to do to try and salvage his credibility. I suspect he spoke to the other larger shareholders before moving ahead with this and provided them with all sorts of assurances. He has also lost out personally big time.

Cathal under orders not to go off piste 😊

So in your opinion 'there are challenges in closing contracts' means ‘we’ve barely signed any contracts’?

CF sold his entire holding over 10 months ago. Move on.

You’re just Stt1 in disguise.

How do you know there have been barely any contracts signed?

So just to clarify stt1, you don’t think it’s a good investment?

Don’t let them win. Filter!

They are most certainly buys and I assume its Octopus averaging down. I am a little perplexed about their intentions overall. Its a massive exposure for an 'II', particularly where there are no other holders (I believe) anywhere near their holding. Octopus have a fairly diverse range of businesses within their group - "renewable energy, venture, health and care real estate and commercial real estate debt" (extract from their Group website). Anyone else think this is more than seeking to provide medium term returns for their investors?

They have stated that they don’t intend to RNS contract wins as they did previously.

Thanks for clarifying.

So its a buy?

Forgive me if I’m a little slow on the uptake here, but having read your posting history on HVO, are you saying that you don’t really rate the company?

Cheers

TI.

Lots of buyers coming it.

I was saying the same earlier. Even if profits are not as expected (which I don't believe to be the case), the cash pile could prop up the business for a goods few years. Its not like we are an exploration company that rely on ridiculous odds and pubic placings to keep going.

Brilliant - I had Pacific Media, Magic Moments and Birchin International.

There was a chap called 'Shed' on a bulletin board who attacked anyone who said anything bad about Pacific Media and who had a huge following. He probably has a whole wardrobe full of their certificates which is now a fire hazard!

Hi Strictly

Love your enthusiasm. I remember people saying during the dot com meltdown in the 90's:

'Put those share certificates in the bottom drawer, they'll be worth a fortune when the markets come back'.

I have odd socks worth far more than those certificates in the same drawer now.

That said, I topped up today with another 20k of shares.

Good luck everyone.

What a great buying op.

I would be very surprised if there is not an RNS on Monday; if only to state that the company is not aware of any information that should have a negative affect the share price.

Please don’t put unqualified things in the title bar that just get reposted. ‘Profits Warning’ is massively unhelpful.
