Quality company but everything seems to be getting pulled down.

[rickyvader] 27/7/2015 18:15

The colour offends me too sir

[hydrus] 20/7/2015 22:01

It's about 0.07% of the company More significant is the hideous colour of the text on this thread

[rickyvader] 20/7/2015 21:48

£1.25 million sell at close of play. That's significant

Wirralowl they do have ballygowan which is Ireland's no 1 mineral water so could look to focus on rolling that out. However a 'cool' water brand would be interesting. Fiji and smart water etc must be absolute cash cows as they are expensive and cost next to nothing to make.

[wirralowl] 17/3/2015 09:23

Hi Hydrus, also a long term hold for me too, with a great brand name and nice growing dividend. I'd like to see them make an acquisition into the growing mineral/spring water market to compliment their range of squashes.

[hydrus] 16/3/2015 19:06

Getting closer to breaking new ground. This is one of my very long term holds (I.e 10 years plus). People will be drinking squash in ten years and their USA push on other products brings lots of potential.

Fairly impressed with the results. One question - their annual report never includes any images of what I believe to be one of their best brands, J20. Anyone know why not as this has terrific potential in my view?

It's interesting that Pepsi haven't decided to pounce on Britvic, although I guess this could still happen one day.

FruitShoot and Robinson's are strong brands as well. The company has much potential in my view.

Debt is relatively high, but at less than 2 times EBITDA is not a problem. It will probably edge down to 1.5 times in the next year or two.

United biscuits purchased today, owner of Jaffa cakes, further underscoring the appetite for British food brands.

[hydrus] 31/10/2014 17:57

I've been buying since 620p. Not many companies with fantastic brands left on the stock market IMO, especially a a fair price. Would expect a bid might be likely at some point following what's happened with weetabix, cadburys and others in recent times. I'll hold for as long as is necessary

BVIC BRITVIC after a good trading update look to have plenty of momentum behind them.
I fully expect broker updates perhaps upgrades over the next few days.



Britvic FY to be slightly ahead of guidance

StockMarketWire.com

Soft drinks group Britvic's full year revenues increased by 2.4%, with both volume and price growth.

And it says the strategic cost initiatives were successfully implemented with a slightly higher in-year benefit than anticipated.

As a result the group now expects that EBIT for the year to 28 September will be marginally ahead of the top end of its previous guidance range of £148m to £156m and well ahead of last year.

Chief executive Simon Litherland said: "We have delivered a strong performance despite the poorer summer weather and the continued challenging trading environment. We now expect operating profit marginally ahead of the top end of the guidance range we outlined at the start of the year.

"Full year revenue grew 2.4% and the accelerated delivery of our strategic cost initiatives pulled the in-year savings ahead of our original plan. I am especially pleased that we have delivered a strong set of results, with profits well ahead of last year, at the same time as undertaking a significant internal change programme. We are now set up to take advantage of the growth opportunities ahead of us.

"We anticipate that the prevailing challenging market conditions will continue for some time. Nevertheless, we look forward with confidence to further earnings growth in 2015, as we realise the full year benefit of the cost initiatives and execute our extensive innovation and marketing plans for the year. We will share more details of this in our preliminary results in November."
