zurdo,
Your theory that they are short 1.1 million shares and just want a sure cover is shared by others on yhoo and RB. Also, I remember this co did the same offer for KLOC back during the srch ipo, however I dont know what became of that since I was not in kloc. Still holding some shares long and at this point just hoping for (another) a pop. I got lucky in my IRA had 1000 shares I bought at 15 back in Feb and set a GTC order to sell at 15 3/16 last week, it hit on monday morning ;-) Some say pricing tomorrow and trading Thursday. I just have a suspicion the mm will have something left up their sleeve for the shorts on this one ;-)) Are you in this one still?

More dilution. Ordinary NAVR-o-holics pay with their hard earned monies. Yes, feed the animal.

Question: How many outstanding shares does Nawarr have? Navarr getting real expensive in terms of Market Cap.

Interesting thought from NAVR msg board on AOL

Several questions occur to me. Why would Growth Capital tender a public offer for 1,100,000 shares at $10.25? Why not just purchase from the public float? Maybe the answer is as simple as they don't want to drive the price up. But the timing of the offer, , ,
If it's not the simple answer, why make it public? To support share price? Is NAVR is behind it? If so, important question: Why would a company want to support share price? Acquisition/merger negotiations?
Back to timing. Why would the offer expire on Tuesday the 19th of October? What happens on the 19th? What may happen to drive up share price on the 20th? Beat the street significantly? Analyst upgrades? Acquisition/merger deal announced?
Folks, we were only down $1. Moderate volume in the midst of an IPO. Maybe it will come, maybe it will be postponed. But these prices may reverse quickly with pricing. This tender may support share price, as they often act like merger or acquisition offers. Ire99 made one of the gutsiest choices on the board. I wish him much luck.
