Good post, but I disagree with the notion that Johan is doing this to recoup his money. He had the right to take the plane or the asset back. Why didn't he do that? It's currently being used by the government, and Johan could continue to collect payments from the gov until the contract is up. After that he could recoup his money if not make a profit by selling it on the open market. Johan saw an opportunity to make a ton of money by investing in TMPS and watching it increase in value. It doesn't matter how Johan obtained his shares because shares are shares. He now has the opportunity to make hundreds of millions. Do you think he cares about $6MM? I mean honestly? Do you think Johan wants to invest his time and money, appoint a CFO that specializes in M&A just to recoup a minimal amount (in billionaire terms) when he could have just sent a pilot to fly the plane To a destination of his liking? Makes no sense when you're talking about a billionaire businessman. Not only that, he can choose to convert a portion of his shares, he doesn't have to dilute.
There's a reason he's a billionaire, and it's because he can see what lies underneath and not just what's on the surface.
