Upgraded FY outlook for RTN.

Read the runes.

TAST is on the road to recovery.

Less than two weeks until the interims show steady progress on the path to recovery.

Well that flurry of activity looked like an organised pump and dump.

I don't use LSE or III. Was it on one of those boards?

It is my understanding that the company knows no more about the reason for today's spike in price than I do i.e. nothing. So there is no point shareholders contacting the company to ask for their explanation as you likely won't get much more than 'more buyers than sellers'.

Encoraging to note the continued ,omentum in the RTN trading update.

Almost certainly this will have been replicated by TAST on its path to positive cashflows and profitability.

Strong buy at these levels.

It's casual dining business with all the trials and tribulations that go with that.

Up until 2016 they were on a roll, probably expaned too quickly with suboptimal sites, but 2017 saw significant industry wise head winds(RTNs trading updates from that time mirrir those of TAST).

Then of course they and others then of course they were blown completely of course by covid and the impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Time will tell but I'm backing them as a recovery.

I'm a bit bored tonight so I took another look at the results. I still think these are headed for insolvency. The net cash figure looks impressive and gives the illusion of a margin of safety but they actually have net current liabilities. I know these sort of businesses have the advantage that they get credit from their suppliers whilst their customers pay on the spot but what if their suppliers get nervous and demand different payment terms?

The staff costs have skyrocketed presumably due to the big increase in the minimum wage, whether they can increase their prices enough to recover this extra cost without losing business remains to be seen.

I did see an article somewhere recently (can't remember where) stating that much of the casual dining sector was unprofitable and that the whole sector was facing a bit of an existential crisis.

Looking at the P&L this looks like it has always been a fairly poor business and given the particular difficulties facing them at the moment I don't see any reason to believe things are going to get any better for them this year.

All quiet here although recent buys have seen L2 strengthen with all MMs on the bid and only one on the offer.

Yes that was my view at one time but for the reasons I outline above I am no longer of that view.

Thank you for your your input though and bringing the thread to the top.

Every little helps.

TAST is much smaller and more nimble than RTN.

TAST has cash that is greater than its market cap while RTN has debt that is 450% greater than its equity.


TAST offers a much greater opportunity for capital appreciation as the market for dining continues to improve into April(as per RTN TU)

The Restaurant Group issued a trading update on May 2nd which reiterated what TASTs BoD has said:

TIDMRTN

RNS Number : 9836X

Restaurant Group PLC

02 May 2023

The Restaurant Group plc

The Restaurant Group plc ("Group" or "TRG")

Encouraging trading momentum through the first four months of the year

TRG today provides a trading update for the first four months of the financial year :

-- Current trading continues to be very encouraging
-- Good progress on cost saving initiatives delivering c.GBP5m of incremental cost savings on an annualised basis

-- The combination of current trading and incremental cost savings achieved provides confidence that TRG is tracking ahead of management expectations on its medium-term margin accretion and deleveraging plans

Very encouraging trading momentum continues into the second quarter

In sis of the seven locations Prezzo and Wildwoods are very close together. Whilst there are other players in the localaities it should drive trade to Wildwoods(as well as the others)

Seven of the Prezzo restaurants that are closing were competing against Wildwoods.

I am only familiar with one location but in that location which is a tourist destination I would expect a significant increase in the Wildwood footfall.

I will resaerch the other six and ascertain releative locations to each other.

I certainly expect these closures to be revenue accretive for Wildwood.

The headline loss is £6.4m which was greater than the market cap so I agree that doesn't look good.

Howeer the accounts are stuffed full of noncash adjustments and IFRS nonsense so being old fashionned I prefer to focus on cash.

Net cash reduced from £9.8m to £7.0 after the repayment of a £1.25m bank loan.

So an accounting loss of £6.4m translates in to a reduction in cash after loan repayment of £1.55m leaving significant headroom for the company to recover.

The BoD have always run a prudent balance sheet impairing assets where applicable.

So I am confident that this will multibag over my 12/24 month horizon.

"the full year results were not as bad as the figures indicate"

Err.., so how bad were they then?

I long thought this would go under or be taken private by management but as Asagi says above the full year results were not as bad as the figures indicate.

Since the results I have purchased a few and see this five or ten bagging over a two year timeline.

Head winds are receding and profitability will return.
