Networks (AEN) denied today press reports claiming that Alexei
Schneider, the owner of Midland Group, an offshore British-registered
company, that owns the AEN, wants to sell his shares in it at $100
million.
Schneider acquired his shares at $15 million committing also to
pay $25 million of AEN’s accrued debts.

not going to sell his shares in the company and “therefore, there is
no point in talking about the networks’ price.”
