yesterdays announcement by Byrne's is a stunner. copy below.
are they suggesting that Nido will remain listed.???? ie: going concern.
in the announcement dated 4/8 the board "unanimously says take up the offer".
look at the announcement below, this is telling another story.
Mr Byrne's gets pay out over $3MM, he is acting like nothing has happened, suggesting review will be good for shareholders.
I'm feeling like I was tricked into selling my shares.
who knows next thing we might see incentive shares offered to the remaining board members.
some thing is not right with yesterdays announcement.
do BCPE really want 100%.????
lastly Phil should be gone, he got his severance pay out $3MM.
would I have sold my shares the day before this announcement.???? probably NOT, still waiting for elephant oilfield.
