Odd-lot tender into a C$800m Dutch auction issuer bid, C$29.00–33.00

Entry
99 shares at C$28.03 · 10 Sep 2026
Exit
99 shares at C$27.80 · 11 Sep 2026
Result
−C$24.95 · −0.9%

Sold before the offer closed. The circular put paid-up capital near C$10.60, so withholding on a non-resident account came to about three times the spread. Worked through in Issue #2 · Offer terms, 17 Aug 2026

Tender for 20% of each holding at NAV less 5% · these shares settled after the record date and could not be tendered

Entry
260 shares at 574p · 14 Sep 2026
Exit
260 shares at 588p · 22 Sep 2026
Result
+£22.67 · +1.5%

Bought for a tender these shares were never eligible for: the offer counts shares held on the record date, and settlement landed two days after it. Sold once that was clear. The shares were quoted at 562–572p on 23 September, below the exit, with the offer open until 9 October. The record date, worked through in Issue #3

Arbutus Biopharma · ABUS · Nasdaq

Entry
99 shares at US$5.05 · 1 Sep 2026
Exit
99 shares at US$5.00 · tendered · paid on or about 5 Oct 2026
Result
−US$4.96 · −1.0% · computed; broker statement pending

The auction cleared at the US$5.00 floor. Odd lots were not prorated, so all 99 shares were bought; other tenders were taken up at about 55.6%. The clause worked as described and the entry price, above the floor, was the mistake. Worked through in Issue #5 · Final results, 1 Oct 2026
