It's extremely obvious, once the judge had authorised the transfer people will have been in the know but in the meantime there is still paperwork and money transfer, different time zones as well...if you want to prevent potential insider trading ,and most of us do, then why complain about TH's that's why they exist...clear.png

I may be missing something obvious here, but can any one help clarify the following:
Galaxy will now receive
US$271.6 million(after US$8.4 million in withholding taxes was paid in November 2018) as follows:
• US$257 million consideration held in escrow plus interest accrued will be released by the Escrow Agent to Galaxy by Tuesday26 February 2019; and
• US$14.6 million will be paid by POSCO directly to Galaxy by Friday 1 March 2019, now that registration of the usufruct transfershas also been completed.
- US$280m should be sitting in escrow with HSBC. Galaxy paid the US$8.4m tax last quarter, which is why the cash balance dropped more than expected. So if the tax has already been paid, why are we receiving US$271.6m? Shouldn't this simply be the full US$280m?
