The usual format is for the incoming CEO to lay out all the bad news at the beginning so he can claim credit for all of the improvement thereafter. However I am not sure there is any really bad news, just the failure to get the LFL moving upwards. Jegen's track record might imply he will give BME a creative shakeup and makeover. If he gets it right there is tremendous upside here as the share price is almost at fire sale levels. His £500k investment is a bold statement that he expects to succeed.

there was a long tailed candle back in feb. this would indicate strong buying support in the tail region of the share price the volume has picked up since the share price got into the tail section again. we are very close to that bottom price point again.

personally i wouldn't get in until it is clear that level is holding. my risk/reward threshold hasn't been hit yet

Rmorris94, I agree with your comments. Last year the profit per share was about 32p. At 280p that's an 11% return. If I could be sure they would do that every year I would be happy to put some savings money (as opposed to risk money) into it. The question of course is WHAT IS the risk here. Is it more likely BME can improve its game, will it simply plod along level, or will it start (may already have started) to fold ? I don't think it is in the last category yet. The market BME is in is highly competitive. BME is surviving rather than thriving. But it does seem to be tightly run, and it has expanded its base, so it has POTENTIAL. Could the new CEO be the man to unlock it? If he can then BME could easily double or triple. One issue though: how quickly can he change things ? My understanding is that BME buys its stock a year in advance so the next 12 months is already locked in.On balance I believe the upside potential is far greater than the downside risk. And at current share price of 280 a lot of the downside has already been taken out. So I'm looking to get back in when I next sell one of my existing investments.There is a possibility that the share price could yet test the 250 lows but if I'm looking for 500-600p in a year or less then trying to save a few pence is not worth it.

While looking at overall fundamentals, BME is now clearly way way too Oversold/Undervalued at the moment, and now upside potential by far exceeds any downside risks here IMO, major catalyst will come with new CEO arrival this very month (current interim CEO/CFO reporting to him), and in the meantime, nice dividends with share price also going ex-dividend again this very month, markets are for the brave, DYOR!

glad i sold into the bounce a month or 2 back
this is a tough retail space, poundland exiting the uk is a good example of that
medium term that is probably a plus for bme
it has expamded in the uk at the same time as aldi and lidl, i remember going into one of bme's first shops on leigh market after i went in one of aldi's first stores in nearby tyldesley. life is cheap in that part of the world!
i would be more worried about sainsburys
most people who go to bme like bargains, because they don't have much cash. they should do more with their app, to give people some discount incentives to go there more often
i don't particularly like the heron foods stores i have been in and i don't like the branding. b&m local might be more appealing. european expansion seems likely, poundland were clearly making far more money there and one would hope bme would benefit from that.
wouldn't surprise me to see more weakness back down past 300p, possibly re-testing this year's low in the 250-260p range. it can be an excellent income stock bought at opportune times, the specials have been a massive contributor to returns over the years

Key Issues Affecting the Share Price
1. Profit Decline
• Statutory profit before tax fell 24% YoY (£169m vs. £222m).
• Statutory operating profit dropped 14.6% (£235m vs. £275m).
• Statutory diluted EPS declined 24.9% (12.3p vs. 16.3p).
• Margins are shrinking despite revenue growth.
2. Cash Flow Weakness
• Post-tax free cash flow dropped by 49.2% (£73m vs. £143m).
• Cash generated from operations fell 14.1% (£303m vs. £352m).
• This could raise concerns about B&M’s ability to fund expansion and return capital to shareholders.
3. Weaker Operating Margins
• Group adjusted EBITDA margin dipped slightly (10.4% vs. 10.5%).
• Group statutory operating profit margin declined 190 basis points (8.9% vs. 10.8%).
• Suggests higher costs or pricing pressures.
4. Rising Net Debt
• Net debt increased to £788m (vs. £700m in H1 FY24).
• Debt including leases also worsened (2.5x EBITDA vs. 2.4x).
5. Macroeconomic Concerns
• The company mentioned “uncertain consumer environment”, meaning customers may be spending cautiously.
• Exchange rate volatility could impact stock valuation and creditor balances.
6. Executive Transition
• CEO Alex Russo’s retirement announcement in February may have raised concerns about leadership stability.
7. Market Expectations vs. Guidance
• While FY25 EBITDA guidance was slightly raised (£620m–£660m vs. FY24’s £616m–£629m), it may not have met analyst expectations.
• The share price may have dropped due to profit-taking if investors expected stronger numbers.

Crazy.

This just keeps getting cheaper and cheaper.

Like people have said, a £200K share purchase in the last 3 days should have stopped a reducing share price in my opinion.

Still, I'm sure the share price will righten over time - same as PIER.!!

Can't believe we are at 267p - crazy...

The RNS didn't state the exercise price of the options. So it's impossible to tell how much of a bonus each of them is really getting. If they are nil-cost AND nil-exercise then they are getting a lot, as in effect they are FREE shares. If the exercise price is the current share price then they are only getting the difference between the current share price and whatever the share price is on exercise, with no risk of loss if the share price goes down.

Oh dear ! For 30 mins yesterday the plan was going so well. Having spent the last 6 months watching BME and failing to fathom it's daily, even weekly, moves I thought maybe I thought I'd found a point where the trend should be clear. I should have known better.No disaster, and at least I got Tuesday very right. But on a daily basis the track of the BME share price remains an enigma to me.But with a price target of 690 I very happy to let my new core holding run, and let my additional day trade turn into a multi day trade in the hope that we will hit 500 in short order.Happy hunting guys.

Saw the RNS this morning. It looked OK. Sp down another 10.Didn't make sense, so bought a few. Listened to the call-in. Sounded positive. Sp up a bit. Tempted to add a few, but let's see where we go first.I still don't understand the BME share price movement. From when I first started tracking BME at beginning of the year it has steadily gone up 50p then reversed and steadily gone down 50p.Maybe it's not about understanding the share, but about following the pattern.
