I vote for a resumption of the annual divi ahead of buybacks (and deffo no acquisitions). We know what the UK investor likes, this is not Wall Street! The thing with buybacks and acquisitions is they involve judgements on valuations of the business or its potential targets....... and I've lost faith in management's ability or clarity. Please, give us an annual cash payment and ensure it's sustainable, nothing will do more for the sp.

Bit of a tug of war going on with the share price today. Someone's dumping but it keeps getting bought into...

Interesting, both TRLS and sister biotech VRCI taking a hit this morning. Shareholder in common bailing?

In a word, encouraging.

The sp has risen 15% in the last 48hrs and I'm just asking if there's a company specific reason. Don't find oddness in everything cureboy.

Can't find anything company specific, anyone care to enlighten me?

Thank you for keeping the light burning on this chatboard, tickhilltim. I'm also disappointed with progress having bought in nearly a year ago and seen the share price go nowhere. The fee situation is unfair but when did fairness matter in the investment industry? Rates remain high, property investments are still mostly suffering, so it could be a while before they report meaningful sales.

Hey, thanks MR.Spacetomato, nice post and I hope yr right with your great feeling about the company.

The stock would need to 10-bag for me to get my money back and I will say it's a mathematical certainty that if you took a punt down here you'd stand a better chance of coming good than my buys at 31p, 18p and 7p!! Anyway, I can only blame myself but I'm learning and it's all good. I'm keeping a small amount because I'm curious and want to leave the stock up on my screen. However, to buy any more would be to get emotionally involved again, as it were, and i really don't want to do that.

What I've now learnt with POLX and the other pre-profitable ones is they almost always have a really good story and generally have an excellent salesman as CEO who knows how to tell the story, and I for one found it bloody difficult to distinguish which were valid and feasible and which (most) were duds. The other thing I've learnt, now blindingly obvious but the penny didn't drop at the time, is that the macro environment is a massive, massive factor - in the days of zero rates, funding was easy and the pre-profitable ones thrived. Now, not so much.

To be clear, we're told that they've received "a preliminary possible conditional cash offer"... I would imagine that to be the 'lowest quality' of cash offer, meaningless and certainly not actionable in itself, but it may lead somewhere. Other "preliminary" offers have now been received, so a Formal Sale Process was started and is set to end on 31/3/25.

Personally I don't think they should let the company go for less than £2, but the way the BOD is reacting to these possible offers tells me it'll go for 125p-150p, assuming an offer firms up.

Shpunken, because I'm a long-suffering shareholder but don't want to suffer in peace.

MR.Spacetomato, not stressed at all and that's because I sold half my holding (at a loss) for 5p way back when. As for the balance, a small amount, I'm hanging in for the fun times ;)

I often find the stress is to be found amongst the 'extreme bulls' - you, know, the ones that countenance no opposing view - on the chatboards of jam tomorrow stocks.

Smooth salesman-in-chief, von Jako tells us all about POLX's "exciting plans" on Vox. Not falling for any of it any more.

Gone non-tradeable. Capitulation stage. I'm not selling now. Be interesting to see what the Amati Strategic Metals boys say about it in the next monthly factsheet.

Even 'rock solid' BVXP succumbs...

Tough times, when will it end?

Marginally disappointing really. There always seems to be weakness in one or other of their end markets. Yet more patience required.

Make that an average descent rate of 30% per week, lol. Almost enjoying the pain...

The AGM Statement duly arrived. I'd describe it as short, not terribly sweet, but by no means dreadful. However, the market has lost faith for now.

I've held the share for 11 months and am down a third. Not my best. To top-up or not to top-up? I think not. I'm trying v hard to be super-selective in additions to my existing shares and I'm not sure this one is a 'no-brainer' as one or two of my others have been. Equally, I've seen nothing from a company perspective that makes me want to bail down here.

Still getting over the covid boom it seems...

I really hope your right Stealthj89. My average is also around 16-17p, with no averaging down so perhaps not a large amount staked.

It's a rate of a 20% per week descent on top of that big drop which followed news of the Aqua Comms sale. At some point, even if DGI9 is doomed, this rate of descent can't continue and there'll be some sort of rally. I'm not saying it isn't painful now, but I'm in for the 'long haul' and the fun of what happens next.

I agree. I know I should be patient but I just wish the share price rise on promising results would stick. Happening to a lot of my shares atm. "Stale bulls" getting off the shareholder register, I hope.

I suspect it's the old "generative AI disrupting RWS's business model" chestnut once again. This time around, given more credence from the Chinese DeepSeek revelations. It's tricky. I'm really not qualified to say if the market's right to be worried. However, if the market is wrong and RWS can maintain current trading and cash generating qualities, the share price is cheap, underpinned by a stonking divi. Time will only tell. For now I'm hanging in but it's uncomfortable.

And the slide continues. Punters throwing in the towel?
