Do you know much much the directors currently hold? Sounds like you might not. I haven't checked up on it for a while and it keeps changing because they continually add new shares and get diluted, but it was pretty substantial last time I checked. I don't think it would matter if they owned 90% of the company. Look at how they have spent all these years (not just with AEB) making their money. That's what they're good at. If they were going to own much more than they already do, especially keeping in mind it's largely a family owned business, and they were sure the company was actually going to be profitable, they might as well just run a private company rather than a publicly listed one. If they did own, say, 80-90% of the company, and continued the capital raising games as per usual, they would quickly dilute themselves anyway.
