shocker of a deal, page-13

Must question the antics of the early release of DD's 60 million turnover but not mentioning the losses incurred at that point. I was, like many hopefuls under the impression that DD was at least slightly profitable. Deal doesn't seem to do much for existing shareholders but no deal would have meant a winding up of the company so at least it is still functioning. There is always hope that the business can be turned around and brought into profit into the future. SP might see more volatility in the meantime I guess. Hopefully the bottom is in for existing holders. Hard one to call so will just watch from the sidelines.
