Little left at Intellect
There may not be much value in the three investments that are the only assets of Intellect Holdings, the former payment terminals player that is under the control of the Sydney investor Duncan Saville.A notice of special meeting that proposes to convert the debt of secured lenders (mainly from Saville's companies) into more than a 90 per cent equity stake in Intellect provides some financial data on its investments. There are three investments: the controlling stake in Intellect INV in Belgium, a 26 per cent stake in Tafmo and some intellectual property in a third entity.Stantons International Securities, in a report to shareholders, wrote that Intellect INV had accumulated losses of $9 million.
