Seraphine – recommended offer by the robber barons of Mayfair Equity Partners, another London Stock Exchange covid-era disgrace

An announcement from maternity and nursing wear group Seraphine (BUMP) that its “independent directors are pleased to announce that they have reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash offer to be made by… a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of funds managed by Mayfair Equity Partners LLP”.
