It could do, but if that's the case, why hasn't it already happened? Best case scenario: the lenders want to see what happens with covid/april 12th reopening and won't oblige card to raise much/any cash as long as things look good for that on the 31st of march.

Worst case: The lenders - for their own comfort - oblige card to raise cash by issuing lots more shares at what would obviously be a very low price. That would reduce debt but dilute existing shareholders and substantially neutering the shares from achieving the very significant returns which I believe would otherwise occur.

Why couldn’t ‘refinanceR17;, simply mean negotiating new terms with lenders, such as an increase in interest rate.
To me, that is the simplest meaning of the word.

but it says "all stakeholders" so that would include shareholders

"the Board is confident the business is well placed to deliver for the benefit of all stakeholders."

yup.

Stakeholders means BANKS are in the box seat.


I've done enough of these deals in my past to know a debt for equity RNS when I see one

Agree re "stakeholders", and if they've been talking to major shareholders about the rescue rights, taking them "over the wall" might be why it's spiked higher recently. ie they're not allowed to sell.

Wonder if there's a press rumour for this weekend, hence the late Friday RNS today. Monday morning RI announcement?

And is that the first time they've used "stakeholders"?

The last line is code for banks win, shareholders will be allowed to keep a sliver in a very deeply discounted rights issue after a debt for equity swap with warrants.

The smart seller ran for the hills at 30p for a reason. 50p bid up this week. Madness!

A CardFactory app comes up for me also, rated 4.9* out of 5 but only 10k downloads to date. My point is that with CardFactory valued at peanuts compared to MoonPig at £1b+ CardFactory has huge online growth potential, especially as their cards are less than half the price of MoonPig's (those which I've looked at). The MoonPig app has only 4.7* out of 5 but 1m+ downloads. Based on price and ratings "Should have gone to CardFactory!" ☺️

the problem is that moonpig is more technically advanced. I'm located in Malta and have an android phone. When i make a search for cardfactory in the apps there is no cardfactory app - at least for me, maybe its not available internationally. You know what comes up on a cardfactory search? - The moonpig app!!! Do Moonpig ship internationally? I doubt Cardfactory caters for international users.

Could you guys confirm that the cardfactory app comes up if you make a search for it on Android and you're located in the UK?

Has anyone else compared the price of cards at CardFactory.co.uk with those at MoonPig ?

CardFactory online cards are hugely cheaper, no wonder it's grown by 137% LFL!

Moonpig is valued at £1b+ for online only, CardFactory have online sales rapidly growing (+137% LFL), retail outlets due to reopen before long and concessions, with a market cap of just £170m for the lot. I'd rather buy these now than participate in a MoonPig £1b+ floatation.

Read it several times, plenty of positives, online, debt reduction, and now we know when shops are due to reopen. Moonpig valued at £1b+ for online only, we have online rapidly growing (+137% LFL), retail and concessions and market cap just £170m for the lot. They seem to be in control of finances given prospects when the economy reopens. I'd go to a CardFactory shop (or CardFactory online now I know about it) anyday rather than MoonPig or Whsmiths etc. Also SHOE looks interesting, imho.

If you read the latest trading statement you can see that even with the stores closed for most of the year the company made a positive EBITDA and it has managed to improve it's on-line offering. Bank debt actually fell year on year.

There may well be a rights issue coming but I think this will be very strongly supported and there is plenty more upside.

Just my thoughts

We've bought loads of cards from Moonpig, should have gone to CardFactory online and paid less than half the price!

I think market is realising that card will be a survivor. With a rising stock price it becomes easier to raise money if they need to.

"Assuming the current national lockdown for non-essential retailers does not extend beyond 30 April 2021, existing bank facilities of GBP200m would be sufficient to meet the current requirements."

They should be able to stretch that until the now scheduled reopening date for non-essential retail. IMHO NAI DYOR
