Posted at 06/11/2006 20:12 by factsonly Actually, imho, the entire board should be given a vote of no confidence given their poor performance and letting this pay increase go through.Maybe I should start a proxy club where investors give their proxy votes to me or another to vote against such terrible management. |
Posted at 06/11/2006 08:23 by factsonly I'm not a CC. investor but the chairman is taking the p1ss... he should be taking a paycut not payrise. I believe it will probably be important for all to vote against his re-election / renumeration. |
Posted at 05/11/2006 11:40 by holgerl Cards infuriates investors CLINTON CARDS, the embattled retailer, has infuriated investors by awarding its chairman, Don Lewin, a pay rise of more than 30% despite announcing that profits had collapsed by two-thirds two weeks ago,writes Louise Armitstead. Lewin was awarded a basic salary of £1.6m last year, according to the company's annual report. Since this covers a period of 18 months, it amounts to an annualised sum of £1.04m compared with £777,000 the previous year. The Association of British Insurers issued a rare "red-top" alert to investors, indicating its highest level of concern ahead of the company's annual meeting on November 30. |
Posted at 20/4/2006 15:06 by verynervy Not the first broker to do that - but what do they know?Results are definitely going to be bad as already stated by the company! The small investor is fickle and absolutely anything could happen - but I would also bet on it going lower. |

Posted at 13/12/2004 21:05 by jack green Yes, nice to see it going up so strongly, but would be nice to know why. Housebroker Investec put out a lengthy and pretty bullish note on Dec 3 - that was a nice positive, but can't ascribe the strong price action of late to that occurence 10 days ago!I think you're right scripophilist - it's an overdue re-rating. cc has been cheap for a long time, presumably because some would-be investors were ccautious on where future growth would come from. The Birthdays answers that question as ot obviously represents a very good opportunity for some strong multi-year growth (as discussed in the Investec note). |
Posted at 18/11/2004 22:34 by chris001 Hi BigboyoHope you well, I've been doing very well got into mining and energy stocks myself, anyway I seen this on growth company investor and thought of you. Greeting cards retailer Clinton Cards announced it intends to purchase rival Birthdays Group for £46.4m. The cost will be covered by a new banking facility for £110m. The group argues the cash generative nature of its business will enable the debt to be steadily reduced. At the interim stage to August, Clinton's increased turnover by 9% to £183.2m and pre-tax profits were up 26% to £1.92m. Like-for-like sales for the seven weeks to mid-September were up 2.6%. Operating almost 800 stores, the company intends to run Birthdays as a separate brand, but it expects to make cost savings by consolidating the head office functions, improving the supply chain management of the enlarged group and rationalising the store portfolio. For the nine months to March, Birthdays made a pre-tax loss of £1.97m, but this was a huge reduction compared to the £14.2m loss it incurred for the year to June 2003, predominantly from a stock write-off, and pension and redundancy costs. Birthdays operates 500 stores across the UK. Clinton expects the acquisition to be earnings-enhancing by the second year of ownership. Analysts had forecast Clinton to make a £31.25m pre-tax and goodwill amortisation profit of £31.25m in 2005, but this will be adjusted. By applying its own operating methods to the acquisition, the much enlarged group looks like a very interesting proposition. Considering its prospective p/e is a mere 8.9, buy now. Trade well Regards Chris |
Posted at 01/4/2004 10:11 by bigboyo norfolkdumplingusual pattern with cc. -- after results price drifts then ups then downs --- quite a trading stock before the split -- the spread is huge now for a 200million pound company the mm's are ripping off investors -- however serious concerns remain : each time a store relocates there is a loss on disposal of fixed assets --- that means the assets are OVERVALUED --- or that cc. is being ripped off by their shopfitters ( maybe they need to look at how contracts are awarded --are they paying too much for the shopfits ? ) secondly, the stock increase needs to be explained --- are any writedowns expected because that would effect pre-tax profits poor communication and big spreads (unless you happen to be named clinton ! ) will see the share price DESERVEDLY drift its down to the directors nows |
