To Institutional Investors...31 Jul 2023 18:51
I know that Novum are typically a bucket shop that sell to PI's with deep pockets that flip shares . The requirements to take part in such things are not that onerous - half a million in assets may be enough to get yourself on a list.
This RNS, however, states that they are targeting "institutional investors". My understanding is that this is a term with a real and meaningful definition that does not simply refer to more than regular retail investors. That seems to me to be the first serious look in we have had at formally attracting institutional investors, and that would surely be a very significant milestone.
I also note that this is a very short window for a raise. That ties in with interest from real, sizeable institutional investors. The usual buck shop placees would need longer than overnight to call around and gather £7m from would they not? This exudes confidence - is an 11p start for the chance to entice this level of interest a price worth paying?
