Hello Share Bunnies. When I was a little boy in the middle of the last century (eek!), there were a lot of classmates with bright yellow knees and elbows. The school nurse used iodine as a healing lotion. Iodine is still an important chemical today and with some analysts predicting a return to a bull market in 2023, a company which might jump the gun and see a share rise specialises in iodine, it’s called Iofina (IOF).
Iofina (IOF) has announced third quarter production from its five IOsorb production facilities in Oklahoma, USA, of 143 metric tonnes of crystalline iodine and that it has now completed all agreements with a new brine supply partner to construct a latest plant in Western Oklahoma.
Iodine and specialty chemical products producer Iofina (IOF) has announced results for the first half of 2022 and that market demand for raw iodine and its speciality products remains strong.
Yesterday I flagged up that Arron Banks, the self styled Brexit bad boy – was tweeting about Iofina (IOF) where he had a disclosable stake. Bankski teased “ I’ve Got plans for Iofina.” The shares ticked higher. Today a TR1.
Having previously attempted regime change at Iofina (IOF), the self style Brexit bad boy Arron Banks cannot be considered a passive shareholder. And hence this tweet from him yesterday has seen Iofina shares nudge higher. Arron you are such a tease. But doesn't flagging up that you are up to something make you a bit of an AIM bad boy?
Iofina (IOF) has announced first quarter production of 103.8 metric tonnes of crystalline iodine from its five operating IOsorb plants in Oklahoma, USA, in line with its budgeted projections and that “iodine spot prices have reached $60/kg and above, up 20% since the beginning of the year”. This sounds encouraging.
The on off long term love affair between self-styled “Brexit bad boy” Arron Banks and perennial AIM dog Iofina (IOF) is back on, for reasons he explained to me in a tweet today as his stakebuilding emerged.
I comment not on the Iofina (IOF) share price which has, pro tem, arrested a year-long decline, bouncing 21% today to 14.5p but on note 16 of its accounts out two days ago showing the shocking corporate governance at this company, something shareholder Brexit "bad boy" Arron Banks used to care about.
Get your beer and popcorn ready this is going to be fun. Iofina (IOF) has today issued an RNS via its morally bankrupt PR mothers at Yellow Jersey commenting on social media and press reports that the self-confessed bad boy of Brexit, Arron Banks, is calling a GM to oust useless chairman Lance Baller. Iofina says it has received no request and as such “ the Board believes that posting this type of information on social media, instead of by proper and legally permitted channels, to be wholly inappropriate and in potential violation of applicable law and regulation. Furthermore, the Board believes this action to be detrimental to shareholders of the Company as a whole.” Pompous knobheads.
