Doesn't make much difference wrt pay (though it does mean that financiers believe in the viability of the company which should be a good thing for the workforce) - what it does mean is that the recent £30M dividend has done its job by making the company look good, thus increasing the share value.
All good signs to any potential buyer...
Also, this is just a value put on by the 'experts' and not derived through shareholder activity (buying and selling) as the company has not had a full flotation, it isn't quite the same as other shares.
