Concordia Healthcare Corp. > Buy out rumour

Buy out rumour

With newly appointed role for Edward Borkowski... Is this the start of possible buy out rumour?
"In this newly created role, Mr. Borkowski will oversee corporate administration and strategy of the organization".
"Ed" is very familiar with M&A as well as strategic buy out...

Not wise to hold an overnight short position here as a retail investor, I think. Risk relatively high for a buy-out offer at this level.A modest offer of $100 CAD puts you down $63/sh. Ouch!

Realisticaly, the buy out offer RIGHT NOW would be $60CAN. The biggest offer I have seen was Rona at double the price. With our price at $37.50, a company would pay 60 and not more. If they offered $100 CAN, their CEO would be fired.

A buyout is not in the best interests of the shareholder at this time. Needs a good foundation (earnings report of consolidated operations) before it can be truly evaluated by the market or potential suitors. Friendly takeover is not in the works. This is all about building a world-reaching growth business.

Yeah, obviously we are not interested in selling this if we see huge long-term potential sunshine, but we cannot stop others having a real interest at these prices. Just saying it is a huge risk to be short overnight as retail investor even if very unlikely. Some US and possibly foreign companies have large cash positions. I think CXR is getting calls regularly from these companies.

??? confusion ...............lol
Comment by adamchess on Feb 16, 2016 2:50pm
Very funny fdfd:  CXR is bargain at $60 USD - That would only be starting point for discussion. Real price would be higher in the $70s to $80s USD. Does Rona still exist? LOL Current price is just crazy. Thats why I say shorts are taking big risk here. Up side is huge if anyone is interested in buying. Not saying anyone is interested in selling under $100 USD. But there might be ways to force ...more
