We are pleased to announce the signing of a new Franchise agreement in Saudi Arabia, with Abdullah Al Othaim Fashion. Having grown a successful chain of QUIZ stores in the country since first launching over 10 years ago, this new partnership will help accelerate our growth plans through a programme of refurbishment of existing sites plus a rollout of new outlets over the coming years. Al Othaim Fashion is part of Abdullah Al Othaim Investment Co., one of the largest shopping mall operators in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with a diversified range of mall, entertainment, retail, food & beverage, and cinema businesses. With a pipeline of some of the most impressive large scale retail and hospitality construction projects in the region, we look forward to supporting their ambitious growth plans with the rollout of new QUIZ stores across their developments.

My understanding was they were investing in their existing distribution centre in anticipation of future expansion. Better to do this when things are quiet rather than when the warehouse is already rammed.
Historic profits were made from a bigger retail base. Central costs spread over more stores.
Quiz needs to batten down the hatches and hope they emerge the other side strong enough to take advantage of the upturn when it comes.

For the last couple of months there have been several 250k buy orders on L2 going down in steps. Since the results those buy orders have been taken out.
Now the Buy Order side on L2 is very thin 95k @ 5p, 30k @4p and 60k @3.88p.
It will be interesting to see if the buyer appears again at a lower level.
I was able to sell QUIZ at a loss without much trouble. It may be more difficult now to sell in volume.
If anybody here is still holding it would be interesting to see how many you can sell on a test sale.
I only have a tiny amount left in QUIZ, so that I can keep an eye on the price movements.

Judging by the charts for both Boohoo and QUIZ, they are both barking dogs that should be avoided.

In an online world Quiz will struggle. The competition was ASOS and Boo Hoo, with Shein joining the party (not good news for ASC and BOO). This is either a scale or a niche business and Quiz is neither.

Hindsight is 20/20. Management were too blinkered and didn't realise that progress last year did not mean they had a strong brand, just a post covid surge. Furthermore, they didn't think inflation would cause big cut backs in their area of fashion.So Quiz is back to where it was pre-covid. A struggling, dying brand. They did nothing in the 3 years to transform the business.

Margin will be lower in pure online retailers like ASOS and Boohoo.
Adding wholesale will cut margins (SOS) so you need to start with higher direct online margins.
SDRY and DOC have much higher margins in order to sell wholesale and high street.
I see Quiz somewhere in the middle, which is either a niche or no-man's-land.

I think the mix of online and stores will become fashionable with investors at some point soon when Next and M&S show what is possible with omnichannel. Will the tech be to expensive for a company of Quiz size? I think the tech will filter down through to smaller businesses at a reasonable cost in time.

QUIZ Update from small caps -

Quiz Clothing (QUIZ.L) - Final Results
These are really good results. EPS is given as 1.64p vs 1.65p last year. In the full annual report for last year, they said there were no exceptionals for 2022, after losses from putting their property-lease-holding subsidiary in administration in 2021 in order to renegotiate leases. Stockopedia agrees with the company supplied adjusted EPS for previous years on this occasion. Therefore, assuming no more exceptionals (and 2021 was as exceptional as it gets), the outurn of 1.64p EPS compares with forecasts of 1.3p.

On the outlook, they said in their April update:

Group revenues in the final three months of FY23 were broadly consistent with those generated in the comparable period in FY2019, that being the last period unaffected by coronavirus related factors.

And this is this week’s:

Revenues in the first three months of the current financial year have been broadly consistent on a like-for-like basis with those generated in the comparable period in FY 2019, that being the last period unaffected by coronavirus-related factors.

So we have six months of continuous trading slightly below 2019. Our best bet must be that this will continue. But this is on a like-for-like basis. Today they report 68 stores GB+Ireland plus 67 concessions. In the 2019 annual report, they claimed 78 GB+Ireland stores plus 188 concessions, including 50 in Debenhams. So we understand revenues to be materially lower than in 2019. But, the cost side has been transformed due to the "renegotiated" leases.

The market didn’t like this update. Presumably, this did the damage:

The Group generated revenue of £23.2 million in the three months to 30 June 2023, representing a 15% decrease on the prior year in part reflecting the strong prior year comparatives in the first half as well as the impact of the macroeconomic uncertainty and inflationary pressures on consumer demand.

We had expected the good weather to have helped them more during this period. But then H1 last year was indeed very strong, with EPS of 1.19p.

The other thing that may be worrying investors is the post-period cash movement:

Total liquidity headroom at 4 July 2023 of £7.1 million, being a cash balance of £3.7 million and £3.7 million of undrawn banking facilities less £0.3 million of bank loans

On that, they say:

The cash utilisation since 31 March partially reflects investment in three new stores and the commencement of works to expand our distribution centre.

Note, however, "partially". We must suspect most of the rest has gone into working capital rather than to losses, given the unchanged headroom in the downside scenario in the going-concern statement.

This was confirmed in the IMC presentation, where they said there was £1.5-1.6 capex in the last three months, including £1.3m investment in the distribution centre, but also some build-up of working capital.

The other key learning from the presentation was that, despite the weaker Q1, they expect to match, if not beat, last year's number. With brokers forecasting 1.7p EPS for this year and 2.5p next, this simply looks too cheap, anywhere near the current price, and the market appears to have been wrong to react negatively to these results.

I think investors was hoping for a dividend.

"be conducted and processes are in place to allow for clear visibility across the Group's supply chain. The Board remains resolutely committed to ensuring the Group's systems, processes and culture are fit for purpose to assure compliance in this area.

Dividends

The Board does not recommend the payment of a final dividend (2022: GBPNil).

The business will remain focused on delivering a sustainable profitable performance, subject to which the Board would anticipate reinstating dividend payments."
