I'm not worried about Clear Media, as they are minority investor with some high quality partners like JCDecaux:   https://www.jcdecaux.com/press-releases/jcdecaux-completes-take-private ...more

Thanks for the pointer to Urbana.  I didn't know they were invested in Kognitiv, and also wasn't aware that they published such frequent updates on their holdings. Kognitiv has an ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

Kognitiv I value at $0 because I still do not understand what they do (I am not a smart man) and they seem to be in constant need of cash.  Granted, the same could have been said of many venture ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

I fully agree that they should've focused on US/Can investments.   And if they couldn't find any, then return cash to shareholders.  Like they said they would.  Looking ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

I think Aimia should have focused on deals in Canada and the U.S., like they promised they would over and over again, until they sprung deals in India and Italy upon us, like "surprise! fooled ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

Bozzetto looks okay and may prove to be a very good purchase if they can build the Americas business and really utilize NOLs etc.   It does seem that Curreri is a force to be reckoned with.  ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

I think Bozzetto has proven itself a winner under current CEO Roberto Curreri since 2015, who has led it to double sales and triple EBITDA during the past 8 years.  So I think Bozzetto is ...more

RE:RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

I'm sure you're right that if the options had value then the $ would be found.  However Tufropes is a mess and the Bozzetto economics are okay but don't seem super compelling.  ...more

RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

I think if either deal is compelling, and either option is in the money, they could find the money rather than waste that in-the-money value, and I think Jefferies would either provide from their ...more

RE:RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

Sooooo....there is a higher liklihood of my crossing paths with a unicorn at the petting zoo this weekend than there is of Paladin writing a check.

RE:RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

Phil left the door open a crack at the Dec CMT hearing, saying Paladin *could* still exercise but they hadn't managed to raise a fund.  At the time I wondered if it was just a gambit to ...more

RE:potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

Didn't Aimia already state that Paladin decided not to exercise that option? They used that as justification for their "dire" cash needs to faciliate the private placement, no?

potential catalyst tomorrow - May 9th

May 9th is the date that Paladin's options to buy up to 20% of Tufropes and Bozzetto expire.  Although Aimia could grant an extension, they would only do so if Paladin requested it and seemed ...more

I agree.  I don't at all see Mithaq as a "white knight".  Rather it seems they've stumbled into a couple pretty big messes. I'm not too concerned about the AGM ...more
