jojo - 'the other (non alcoholic) stuff they do could be spun off immediately'.
What non-alcohlic stuff ? They don't make any non-alcoholic stuff ?

jojo,

I agree but current buyout price probably no more than 1.50

This is now a serious takeover possibility by a major UK brewer looking to become the market leader in Cider overnight. It can now be snapped up on the cheap, at a price between E1.50 - E2.00. Mark my words someone will do it!
They do not have to rely on (currently abysmal) pub sales, and sell very well in supermarkets and 'offies'. They also distribute Bulmers in Ireland. The other (non alcoholic) stuff they do could be spun off immediately to recoup some of the acquisition costs.

I'm a buyer at this price (and up to E1.00) on the basis that someone will soon come in for them before the good weather kicks in.

They can't go down much more!
At least they seem to be adopting a slightly more sensible pricing policy in the supermarkets. Nobody was ever going to stump up £2 for a bottle. Like everybody else , I prefer Magners , but if I can get 4 cans of Bulmers for £3 it's no contest.

Yes,Shazzieb,this thread is 'live',but not very lively.(Most of the posters on here spend their days looking at computer screens whilst imbibing too much of the company's products: Magners in the UK and Bulmers in the Irish Republic).Regarding whether you should invest in these,well you really should research the co.There were huge hopes that it would crack the UK LAD market but S and N's product ( also,confusingly called Bulmers in the UK) undercut them.Weather didn't help either.We've now got new management (the guys in S and N who did all the damage.)I predict : The shares will go up......or down...or ...stay where they are!

C&C Sales Fall Further as Britons Drink Less Cider (Update1)

By Louisa Nesbitt

July 11 (Bloomberg) -- C&C Group Plc, the Irish beverage maker whose shares plunged 70 percent in 2007, said sales have dropped further in its current fiscal year after Britons drank less Magners cider.

C&C slid as much as 8.5 percent in Dublin trading, extending yesterday's 9.4 percent drop. Sales from continuing operations declined 8 percent before one-time items in the four months through June, the Dublin-based company said today in a statement. The outlook is ``uncertain'' because of slowing economies and rainy weather, C&C said.

Magners sales fell 11 percent by volume in the financial year because of record rainfall and competition from larger rival Scottish & Newcastle Plc. C&C has hired a Molson Coors Brewing Co. executive to direct U.K. sales of Magners, introduced draft and lower-calorie versions of the beverage and simplified its cider unit's structure to stoke sales.

``The second half could prove particularly challenging,'' John O'Reilly, an analyst at Davy Stockbrokers in Dublin, said in a research report. ``There has to be concern that current weather, fierce pressure on trade and disimproving economic conditions will slow momentum compared to what might previously have been expected.''

Margin Improvement

While first-half sales probably will fall from a year earlier, the cider maker expects improved margins stemming from cost cuts to at least offset the effect of the decline on operating profit, according to the statement. The four-month sales drop was about the same as the decline for the financial year that ended in February.

C&C fell 23 cents to 2.49 euros, the day's lowest price, at 8:34 a.m. local time. The company now has a market value of 779 million euros ($1.2 billion), about a fifth of its worth when the stock peaked at 14.03 euros in January 2007.

Cider sales declined in both Britain and Ireland during the four months. Sales of the beverage met forecasts ``broadly'' in Britain, and draft sales of Magners are ``progressing well'' after a slow start due to initial equipment supply problems.

The drop in Irish cider sales reflects a ``weak'' local market, particularly in pubs and restaurants, the statement shows.

Weather Forecast

Cider consumption usually increases as temperatures rise, a tendency that worked against the beverage maker last year: the months of May, June and July were the wettest in England and Wales since records began in 1766, according to the government weather agency. It has forecast a ``typical'' summer this year, with ``very low'' risk of storms as severe as in 2007.

Rainfall was above normal in most of Ireland in June, with around twice the usual amount in the south and southeast, weather agency Met Eireann's Web site shows.

C&C uses the Magners brand outside Ireland and sells cider at home under the Bulmers name, now owned in the U.K. by Heineken NV after it bought Scottish & Newcastle with Carlsberg A/S in April. Magners, which sponsors rugby union club London Wasps to keep its brand in the public eye, also competes with the likes of Blackthorn cider, made by U.S. vintner Constellation Brands Inc.

Four-month sales rose 3 percent at C&C's spirits and liqueurs unit, the statement shows. That compares with a 5.4 percent drop during the fiscal year linked to higher spending to advertise Tullamore Dew whiskey and other beverages.

I think c and c have 0 value on the U.K. business priced into the stock. It was around this time last year that the two profit warnings came. I bet the market is worried about the same happening again. I think I'll be buying after the next announcement from the co. I think they got downgraded by some small non holder in the U.K. in the last day or two. Someone told me that but I didn't see it.

I keep an eye here. I use to hold last year. I remember the speculation about a buyout when they traded at 12 euro . I know it's a different co now and they may have a prob. with over expansion of their manufacturing fasilities. Still if anyone wanted a product to add to their portfolio this would be a cheap entry point.

The sun in out today and it is still falling...I must say I find all this nonsense about weather abject. It's not an ice cream van. The weather is warmer people go for a lighter brew. Perhaps rather than blaming extraneous events and hosing money on advertising campaigns aimed at a premium market management should look at reducing the price per bottle. Or may be that's too sensible.
