Very interesting WOODIE. Very interesting indeed. So there's at least one individual out there (besides you & I of course) who sees the potential in TGP.

WOODIE - 11 Oct 2006 06:27 - 207 of 223

the disappointing thing is the s/price as since the start of the year it has been poor with other institutions you would have thought it would have held the s/price up

queen1 - 11 Oct 2006 20:06 - 208 of 223

Agreed. Still it's at least stable at present, hopefully forming a floor for a push up with news.

NMT alarm as Gyllenhammar snaps up stock
DOUGLAS FRIEDLI

A BATTLE between activist investors is looming after Peter Gyllenhammar, the Swedish financier, bought a stake in NMT, the safety syringe developer chaired by Lord Kalms, the former Dixons boss.

Gyllenhammar snapped up 50,000 of NMT stock through his Union Discount vehicle, taking his previously undisclosed stake in NMT up to 2%.

The Swede has a history of challenging management and forcing changes at dozens of companies where he has been an investor, including AorTech, the heart valve developer, and Murray Financial, the former carpetbagging firm.

NMT's board was recently taken over by another group of investor activists. Lord Kalms was installed in September alongside director Jonathan Lander and Nicholas Lander by Volvere, a company in which all three are involved.

The trio got rid of the previous management team, headed by chief executive Tony Fletcher, after accusing them of making money while the company failed. They have yet to announce any deals or reveal their strategy for the company.

Private shareholders fear the Landers and Kalms are simply after NMT's 6m cash pile. One last week suggested that private investors should band together and demand an extraordinary general meeting at which the new directors would have to reveal their plans.

But Lander told Scotland on Sunday last week: "We feel quite strongly it is important to say things only when there are things to say."

NMT, which has no factory and almost no staff at its Livingston headquarters, has attracted interest from senior business figures which is out of proportion to its size.

Sir Chris Evans, the biotechnology tycoon, launched a takeover bid through his Zi Medical vehicle which was rebuffed by the Landers last week after five months of negotiations. Zi's chief executive, Callum McKinlay, previously said he was interested in using NMT's cash pile to commercialise its safety needle technology.

Lex Gold, the Scottish Premier League chairman and former CBI Scotland chief executive, joined the company as a non-executive director in October.

Like many activist investors, Gyllenhammar often makes money by buying companies when the shares are cheap and then forcing changes which raise the share price. But he has occasionally had his fingers burned - two companies in which he invested, Carbo and Gaskell, collapsed last year.

Three years ago he was reported to have suggested that AorTech, in which he had a 10% stake, could increase its 5m cash pile by investing in two property companies of which he was a director.

He also called for Murray Financial, then run by Ken Murray, to be wound up and for cash to be returned to shareholders while he was building up a stake of almost 30% in the business in 2003. Gyllenhammar also invested in IndigoVision, the video technology company.

NMT was regarded as one of the great hopes for the Scottish biomedical sector with a factory in Livingston employing 200 scientists, engineers and production line workers. It won a contract with Roche, the pharmaceutical giant, and was expected to benefit from legislation in the United States and elsewhere which would make safety needles compulsory in hospitals.

But the factory closed two years ago due to a lack of orders and the company was reduced to a shell looking for a customer for its intellectual property.
