This bllx was hidden in notes. It’s a narrative that RM is likely up against….
“ "As a shareholder in Shanta, we remain supportive of management and their strategy. However, we believe that Shanta's share price may inhibit Shanta's ability to deliver on its strategy and potential to maximise future shareholder returns. Furthermore, the lack of trading liquidity prevents ourselves and other institutional shareholders from being able to exit without risk of causing a detrimental impact on the share price. We believe that it would be beneficial for Shanta, its employees, and its other stakeholders to continue its growth and development as a private company. As part of ETC Holdings, Shanta will benefit from the experience and connections of ETC Holdings and ETG in East Africa and as a result, have additional support during the currently heightened levels of macro-instability.
Anticipating that current pressures on Shanta's operating market are to persist for the near-term and given the significant technical, financial, regulatory and geopolitical risks, our objective is also to provide liquidity to shareholders to realise their investment for cash at an appropriate premium to the current market value."
