Dividend unlikely to be 5.7p as the final dividend took into account that it had not been possible to declare an interim dividend because of borrowing covenants. So a yield based on a normalised dividend of 4.5p seems more likely |
2 months to go |
Last year was 7.9 p second half ?So my guess is 10p eps ? With 5.75 p div that's 7.18 percent yield at 80p Has this fallen too far ??Guess we will find out in January trading update ? |
Eps 3.1p , second half 6.2p min = 9.3p Cost measure and price increases to cover in second half ? So may be up side to 6.2p ? |
I thought we were told to expect news of who the US partner is before long. |
It's only a couple of months. Don't forget to buy your Xmas cards at CF in the meantime :) |
Wait till January? Might get them for 70p then ! |
Greetings retail giant Cardfactory is making good on promises in its latest results and forging ahead with the continuing store opening programme as eight have been added to the portfolio over the past six weeks or so.
Pushing it past the 1,060-store mark, Cardfactory can now be found in Aylesford, Bolton, Leeds, Lincoln, Manchester, Paisley and Prestwick as well as expanding in Ireland with the latest shop in Killarney. |
Bought a card on Sunday in the Kidderminster store 15p. How do they pay their overhead? |
Additional Aldi & Matalan sales could help H2, among other factors such as the US and seasonal sales. We may need to wait until early January for the next significant news however (seasonal update)? |
Still lots of scepticism around CF after the horrendous drop in share price Think most are keeping their powder dry before they commit again and need to hear from the horses mouth what their plan is going forward. Even then many will sell into any rise to mitigate their recent considerable paper losses. And if no news materialise then this will simply drift even lower. |
Yes ADF.PLC |
It's poor ADF came out with what people suspected today and got hammered. Card need to follow their own time lines. I am not worried about employers NI. If you are the cheapest then everyone else's costs will go up the same or more than yours. You maintain your competitive edge. News Darcey and Matthias is overdue. Hopefully we continue to expect the same outcomes we did just 7 weeks ago. Sadly most are not convinced. |
Still no news……about anything or nothing. |
I see MW slightly reduced their short position last week. |
Yes but it’s still nice to have a good relationship with your investors, who own the company, and keep them abreast of developments within the company. |
The PR machine is not there to keep shareholders happy and the share price up ^^^ unless of course there is a rights issue approaching.
PR - If applicable is to boost the sales of cards. |
Are we ever going to get any positive news from this company. Their PR machine is woefully inadequate!!! |
There’s not a lot of positive news that Card Factory can release really as the most lucrative period of the year has yet to occur. Good news from USA/AUS would be welcomed but this adventure is in its infancy really so doubt there’ll be much news coming out about that. Hoping for something positive to reignite this share but not holding my breath. |
It better do, after my last few weeks. Or Xmas is cancelled in the Beeks household, indefinitely! |
Good to see this heading up today, hopefully a recovery has commenced. |
It has been time to buy for a couple of years! |
Price up today is it time to buy? |
