Re: Liberum note - Research Tree I sold out on the previous profit warning, but, if they get the fund raising for 50 million away at a sensible sp, then I suspect I'll be sorely tempted to buy back in.Unless I've missed something, there's a very good business here, which has over-reached itself recently, but has a very good chance of recoveringI may be a bit emotionally attached to Sepura though
Re: Trading Update I was considering buying in at 118 at start of April, then 98p.Thank God for my indecisevness.Not sure what to make of the share now, down to 50pRevenue for the full year is up and decent order backlog.The current financial situation must be severe according to share price.The share could be a bargain but I've bought into plunging shares before and they have ended up being suspended, then delisted
Trading Update Well, that's not what I was hoping for.A short term profit warning and increased debt wasn't great news
Re: Asia-Pacific investment Sounds positive.Hopefully "Sepura was last week named Business Weeklys Business of the Year." isn't the kiss of death or the commentator's curse !The sp has done nicely since the placing and it's nearly the year-end so there'll probably be a trading update in two or three weeks time which should give us an indication of how H2 has gone.

Re: Great visual report on Sepura I think I hope they're more accurate in the future than the past!Still happy to hold.

Re: Open offer It all seems to have settled down now.As you say, because of the anticipated rise in profits post acquistion, the company's worth more than it was pre-acquisition so the dilutiion, in some ways, was a bit of a red herring.I was half expecting some selling pressure caused by people taking profits on their 130p shares, but that hasn't happened. All in all, a pretty nice situation to be inWith results due out in early July we should soon find out what the outlook beyond last years figures isI'm still happy to hold these and will reassess, one way or the other, once the results come out
Re: Open offer I'm wondering about the potential dilutive effect of the new shares. The announcement says shareholders who take up their rights will see 20% dilution and those who don't 25%. But presumably if the market was worried about this then the sp would already have dropped in anticipation of the new shares being issued. If I read it correctly (paragraph 10) the directors are forecasting 25% increase in eps for 2016 after taking dilution into account, presumably because any negative dilutive effect of issuing new shares is balanced by expected increase in profits from the takeover.I see that IC reiterated buy recommendation on 6/5 at 150. Can any subscribers post the gist of the article?
Re: Open offer It seems like a no brainer so I'll be taking it up.There's a chance that the sp could rop below the Open Offer price, but it seems pretty unlikely in the short term.
Open offer Can holders see any reason not to take up the open offer at 130, i.e. at 10% discount of current price?
Teltronic Deal I can't say I've ever heard of them, but earning enhancing and getting the cash raised at almost zero discount all sounds decent enough.I think this is an Open Offer I'll be taking up
Trading Update All looking good, with revenues increasing and a good order book.The sp has basically done diddly squat over the last 18 months so, in retrospect, I should have taken some profits in the mid 150's 12 months or so ago, but I still think we're cheap so added a few more this morning. Whether the market will ever agree with me or not is debatable.
