Deal board · 2026-09-09 07:17

BETA — every field on this board is machine-extracted and MUST be human-checked before it is acted on. Stages, prices, dates and bidder identities are all derived, and this session alone found shareholder votes that had been missed entirely and deals filed under the wrong side. Treat it as a place to look, never as a source of fact.

78 deals · prices live as at 2026-09-09 07:17 · columns run left to right from most open to finished. In DOCUMENT POSTED only, a red edge marks a GREEN edge means still gatecrashable, RED means not — elsewhere the column already says so.
