delist, distribute net proceeds, is this what I think it is?

Maybe Helena Marston & Alison Platt can team up and offer MP services - with the tagline 'We guarantee to turn your listed company into a car crash in record time'.
Separate to this, though tough at the time at least Michael & Kenny when they were forced out and had to cash in, they had did so when the share price was not 0.5p - so maybe they are still the biggest winners. As now a large flank of investors will end up with shirt buttons.
