This is a good reminder. In addition, I would provide a TFN. There is a chance that withholding tax may be deducted otherwise. Vote is tomorrow. As I've said before, I can only see a yes vote. @Fishinnick , this was never about you and I, and other shareholders. Imv, it was about the bruised egos at Oracle, who just could not handle an upstart Aussie company outperforming them so comprehensively in the global construction industry space.
It was also, as you so rightly said, about the Australian obsession with dividends and P/E over growth. It's as if someone offered you a Ferrari or a Hilux, and you went the Hilux because you couldn't put your 2 dogs and your eski in the Ferrari. Nothing against Toyota or Hiluxs, but....
Aconex was definitely a Ferrari of the tech world, and was set to accelerate in both growth and earnings. Ah well.
Will it be the last we see of Leigh and Rob? Don't expect so, they are far too ambitious and creative to stay at middle management in Oracle for too long. We will see them re-emerge again down the track, I'm sure. But that's at least a year or so away.
