Re: payout We need to wait for the Scheme Document but payout of 55p is likely to be sometime around Q1 2018, assuming the Scheme becomes effective in early 2018 as set out in the shareholder letter.

Next week...or maybe the week after Looks like we may have to wait a few more days but if the £9bn figure (£4.50 a share) is accurate I'll happily wait a bit longer. Sadly it should probably read $9bn. [link]

Re: Offer could be around 500p Worldpay should be predator, not preyDamn. Royal Bank of Scotland – the 72% state-owned bank – sold Worldpay for £2bn to a private equity crew in 2010. Now the card processor, a member of the FTSE 100 index these days, is worth £8bn as US bidders loom.Actually, the tale isn’t quite so simple. RBS was under orders to sell Worldpay as a condition of the 2008 taxpayer-funded bailout. The bank held an auction and got the best price at the time. Besides, one suspects the business would have been starved of investment if it had remained within RBS. The idea that £6bn has been “lost” to RBS is about three-quarters illusion.Can Worldpay itself resist £8bn-plus offers, assuming Vantiv and JP Morgan convert their approaches into real bids? Well, it shouldn’t surrender its independence without a fight. Card processing, we’re told, is a business that is going global and, in that context, Worldpay has strategic value. It has 40% of the UK market and can operate in 126 currencies in 140 countries. rights, it ought to be predator rather than prey.In the real world, investors whose Worldpay shares were worth 320p on Monday will want to look at any bid above 400p. But the directors should push hard. Card processing enjoys fat profit margins – the fees are tiny in percentage terms but add up to a big figure – and the growth of ecommerce makes the long-term outlook stable.Chairman Sir Mike Rake should not feel compelled to enter negotiations unless he thinks he can get at least 450p a share. RBS was a forced seller. Worldpay is not.

Re: Offer could be around 500p Competing bids and Worldpay has always been a target. Even as the IPO was underway there were attempts to buy Worldpay. It's a jewel that other companies want to own. It's offers great growth potential for any buyer. A third buyer may trump the current two.

Results An impressive set of results plus the fact that the Chief Executive has bought 550,000 shares shows this company has potential. Time to top up.
