Interesting Goldstandard.
That might explain why there has been little promotion of the company.
Keeping things quiet would make things much easier for QVT to make an low offer.
As For MB. Historically He has sold off his own company that he built, so it is well within his realm of operation to consider a sale.
Of course share holders would be informed. The law would need to be observed.
After long enough with little happening many might be happy to get out with something...

Obviously a bankruptcy sale was not in QVTs interest, and so they allowed further capital raising. Now the company is viable , it would be a smart move to have a low ball buy out while the development in its infancy and then after the dust has settled list on a tech friendly exchange. The return from that could be expected to be more favorable.

I would prefer for this stock to at least reach some of its potential with the stock holders benefitting rather than having the new owners share all the returns.
