Diese News betr. eine Aktien-Swap welcher bereits im Juni 2013 durchgezogen wurde. Es wurde auch ein Deal mit Rok-Global angekündigt. Bei keinem dieser Deal ist Geld geflossen sondern ein reiner Aktien-Austausch.
Auf der Webseite bei Alpha Prospects PLC ist RKS als Aktionär aufgeführt - erstaunlich ist nur, dass RKG nicht mehr erscheint. Könnte also sein, dass nach dem RKG Flog man einfach das Ganze über RKS gemacht hat.
Tja - sieht so aus, als RKS den gleichen Weg geht wie RKG - Richtung wertlos.
