Like you and others, I to have read some of the posts and concerns of a 'low ball' offer. Here is a thought that I have had which to some extent provides me with some comfort. When a certain Mr. Blevins was publicly announced as being on the TRAB it without much doubt signalled some sort of a relationship or significant interest from and with a rosy red company.
Could it also be that this involvement, as secretive as it may be, represents somewhat of a guardian angel against such a 'low ball' offer.? After all, who has deeper pockets? And which company if any would be willing to even make that attempt knowing that they're gonna lose particularly if a certain rosy red company makes it abundantly clear that they were there first?
I hear what everyone says about the 'low ball' offer, I don't think it will happen (my opinion). There may be an attempt at a buyout, but I believe the end number would be representative of a fair value at that point in time.........but who really knows what that is...... but I'm sure it is somewhere in between a ridiculously large range.
