"Fair enough, Warthog. I'll ensure there's a former gameshow host's sparkly jacket waiting for Tim at reception."

Now that WOULD grab a bit of attention-great idea Hotblack!

"..cut the dude some slack on the oration front, no one's perfect."

Couldn't agree more but do you really think the quality of what he is going to present will be upheld by ...s poor presentation? I have never seen such a bunch of guys who totally lack enthusiasm, chutzpah and personality. At the 2023 AGM they all looked as though they were bored out of their skulls.

IF as they keep telling us we are on a winner then FFS show a bit of pzazz and let's get the pharma world on our side. We are at a very crucial stage and if TM can't grasp that fact and present us in a totally positive light he will propagate the view that Sareum is a joke, a fact evidenced by the present SP,-25p as opposed to £1.40 exactly 2 years ago despite a raft of "good news" in the interim

Yep. Disappointing drop today but the whole FTSE is down and we don't even feature in the Top 20 Fallers

"Dear" Rachel seems not have the first inkling as to how this appalling rise in employers' NIC coupled with a sharp rise in the minimum wage will impact companies. A Treasury spokesman last evening burbled that the latter was "an investment in our workforce" or similar. Jeez!

They just do not have a clue about real life outside the closeted and cotton wool insulated public sector do they.

Go home and count your pension pot Rachel

Hotblack.

Guarantee comment-agreed-none of us expect it of course but Sareum just ain't buttering the parsnips at present. Plenty of

parsnip but no tasty butter lubricate the SP

"might" "could" "expect" "hope" and Parker's favourite the other day " that's something for the future" (3 times) are just part and parcel of the endless litany of froth and fancy surrounding this company's chequered history.

Nice progress spurt then back to square one again.

Yawn

PS SiPPs part of IHT tot up from 2027. So, we have the Public Sector looking forward to 100% safe inflation proofed pensions courtesy of the very taxpayers they are shafting.

High time for a complete overhaul of this iniquitous differential but because of the vested interests in government it won't happen

Hotblack.

Will do!!

Haven't listened the session yet but from the comments below it seems SP has been trotting out his usual soothing noises as per previous years

It always does but nobody is taking any notice!

.... to basics just for a moment.

"Administration Expenses" up 13.5% on last year.

No note to the Accounts so we have no idea where it is all going. Convenient, but some can be

accounted for under:-

Note 3. "Employees and Directors"

i)Directors' Remuneration £558k

ii)Staff Costs £617k ("Office and Management 4: Research 1")

Are we to assume that i) is included in ii)'cos if not the 5 "employees" making up Staff Costs are taking home a bundle!

"Have we been progressing so slowly, we have in effect been left behind by competition...."

Nail on head I think

Perhaps AI will be able to tell us why, after over a decade of technobabble and bull...t from the BoD we are still sodding well waiting for some really positive news that will produce the "shareholder value" also bandied around by them ad infinitum.

You can bet your arras that Tweety Parker is already preparing for his annual soothing noises performance which has had us all fooled at every AGM since he was appointed.

He and his Mates on the BoD are costing us half a million bucks a year, a ......g high price to pay for soothing noises.

.....EVERYTHING IN THE GARDEN IS SO F.....G ROSEY WHY IS THE SP STILL GOING DOWNHILL AND EXACTLY WHERE IT WAS ON 8TH MARCH 2016?????

Grrrrrr!

PCS-point taken!

"....we will get an updated pathway in the annual statement...." .

Do you reckon? The only pathway on this share to date has always been tomorrow which as we all know never comes.

Sorry, my faith in our BoD is a bit strained at present especially as they are favouring the big boys and keeping us LTH's out in the cold.

....sidelined again while the HNWI's are given preferential treatment. We down 9% today while they still sitting on a NLE.

Same old story-all City Boys Together and to hell with the punters.

Disgraceful.

You were saying?? Down again this morning.

".....including taxpayer-funded subsidies to help pay City analysts to cover smaller stocks......"

Taxpayers subsidising the City?????? I thought it was 15th October today not 1st April

"Also, our new investors would surely have been made aware of the reason, potential risk and potential reward in becoming involved - why would an institution become involved if there was a “fault line” in the process?"

Made aware by whom?

Such information could have been obtained only by them DTOR because most certainly our BoD would not have attempted to influence them.

At a cost of £60k!

NLE.
