Those poor BPRG holders, devastating .. I think Seo might be down in sympathy?

BPRG holders should salvage what they still have and re-invest in seo and imo will recover their loses in the very near future

Can they afford the SEO court case ?

Lol Barry I was going to mention they do that on the BPRG thread but was conscious I would get shot down! It's a welcome suggestion here

My post above (2758) is not not intended to offend any holder of BPRG. I really do have respect for all share holders. (expect shorters- who I believe borrow our shares))We are all in the same game trying to make a few bob. SEO is possible one way to stem those loses

Perhaps it's worth SEO casting its eye over the value of BPRG's IP assets and making an all share offer for them.
There is obvious synergy both in the operational interest and cancelling in a novel way the court case, so all those provisions can be written back to P&L on both sides.
It would give BPRG shareholders fair value based on good future prospects.
It keeps BPRG in business, although inevitably some overhead cost savings and redundancies (especially failed top management) would be required.
Their bio-degradable medicine capsule seems a good product if it can be properly marketed and rolled out (SEO would be good at this I am sure).
Then there are all the other IP goodies in BPRG's bag.
It would be a grand gesture with a keen eye to future expansion of profits for SEO.
The potential dilution on SEO's SP should not be too great to bear.
Anyone know Ian Balkin well enough to propose this to him?

stockdog, do not think you should stable a good stud (seo) and a donkey (bprg)together. The result will only be a "also run"

what are the chances that we are both going to be the same price at the end of the day? i dont mean to sound gloaty and i do have genuine sympathy for SOME bprg holders but it wasnt that long ago this bb was filled with vile bastards wanting to crucify the seo board and put seo out of business. truth be told, this could happen to any blue sky company. even seo.

I think there is a salutory lesson to be learnt from BPRG - it certainly made me stop and reasses my risk and exposure to SEO.
I am still comfortable with my risk and holding - but it did make me stop, think and reappraise my position.

I also think it is the end of the CC. Any new mgmnt wouldstop wasting further money on it and reach a painless mutual-use and cheap agreement with SEO. I said months ago that SEO and BPRG sp was converging!
Shows what can happen though - they just had their results a month ago - and then they come out with this. This stockmarket place can be VERY treacherous - Lord help us!!!

Adie H. Where are you?????????
Are you still in SEO? I know you were hedging your bets on both BPRG and SEO and bought at 1.30. I hope you sold BPRG weeks ago and stuck the funds in SEO.

Bos, share your views on thos BPRG holders who took a swipe at us when we were 4p and they were 130p haeding to 300p!! Oh dear!! But at the end of the day there are many decent BPRG holders who are in deep shit right now and it might have been us in that boat but for the excellent job done by Balchin and the team. I've offered them some advice on how to retrieve their losses.
I think we will be more likely to see 300p within 3 years than BPRG who going cheap might be worth a few bob on a possible takeover????
