Several things have happened here over the past 6 months affecting the share price.
1) Killik and Kave have dumped around 19 million shares between them since January 19th. That is a huge amount in 3 weeks. These have had to be absorbed by PI before the share price could stay still nevermind rise.
2) Appledore sold their 9m shares almost as soon as they received them as part payment for the yard in November. Again these had to be absorbed by PIs, and whilst that was a lot easier at 6p it was still 9m extra shares that could have been bought from existing stock prior to their dump and meant we only made it to 10p on rumour of us winning FSS.
3) There was a seller during the summer and autumn of 2022 that meant regardless of news the share price kept dropping. Was this Lombard? They apparently disappeared from the large holders list without a single TR-1. This selling resulted in the all time low in October, which meant any rise starts from a lower base.
4) The professional trader crew that ramp shares on Telegram and Twitter latched on to the preferred bidder announcement knowing that news on winning the contract was guaranteed early this year. JW then telling us to expect news within two weeks made that the easiest trade a lot of them will see this year. They bought shares and sold them into the volume on the morning of February 1st confirmation. These people are now silent. Again this is further shares that have had to be absorbed by PIs. However it is likely their shares originally belonged to Killik and Kave.
5) Opportunistic shareholders looked at the TR-1s and thought a drop after news is likely as Killik continue to sell and have sold their shares on the February 1st news waiting to get back in lower. Given that Kave is on fumes and Killik have likely stopped these ones should be back soon.
This is why we are down here. Without these entities dumping it is likely that we'd be in the 30s now.
Some like to say Killik especially are exiting because they know something we don't but they started dumping at 6p.
There was an article a while back suggesting this is worth 30p even without the FSS contract. Nothing is priced in currently. We've been absorbing large holder sells for months which is suppressing the share price. This is coming to an end.
I don't expect a rocket up to 30p. A lot of people interested in HARL have absorbed the Appledore, Killik and Kave shares. So it will take further news, contract wins and PR to get more people interested in the company. It should in the least have a technical bounce back to around 20p.
More news is due. JW said in November...
"some key and large contracts that we have been negotiating over the last 18 months, due to come to fruition in the next couple of quarters."
Note the plural. We've had one. I look forward to whatever he has coming up for us. This isn't a one trick pony where we have to wait until 2025 to see value because it's all about FSS. We're operating in f
