Online insurance provider netwindfall has bought Pathfinder, a non-trading company with £100,000 of cash, for £401,000 in shares.

Two directors have recently departed, with Alan Page arriving with Pathfinder. Chairman Nigel Turnbull is excited by the prospect of Page reshaping the company. It certainly looks as if it needs reshaping, as it has lost over £4m in the past 18 months. The shares picked up 15% in heavy trading. Speculative.
Market cap: £1.9m
