I agree and think it will become a bid target. Massive headwinds when these energy prices hit people tiger

Not sure but the last update said high end of estimate so 60m pre tax. They are doing better than pre Covid 2019.

gaffer didn't profit fall from 70 to 21m in first half. some serious cost pressures in 2nd part of this calendar year and next with price cap re fuel. its cheap for a reason.

[gaffer73] 10/8/2022 08:12

60m profit, mcap of 350m? Looks very cheap.

6% drop suddenly....

Generally when CFO leaves it puts doubt?...maybe the good times are behind...

Went unnoticed still, or the market is ignoring any good news

In amongst the CFO leaving RNS:- https://www.investegate.co.uk/dfs-furniture-plc--dfs-/rns/directorate-change/202207050700062819R/ ...is this little nugget:- Further to recent our Trading update and the successful completion of expected deliveries to our customers prior to year-end we now expect profitability to be in the upper half of the range for underlying profit before tax and brand amortisation previously indicated.* Ian Durant, Chair of DFS, commented: "I would like to thank Mike for his leadership as CFO. He has helped to navigate DFS through a period of significant challenge, including the impact of COVID-19, and leaves a resilient business well placed to grow in the UK.

Times Tempus-Hold-Inflationary risks are accounted for in the depressed share price

This business made 34.5p a share last year. Can they repeat it next year? If so, the p/er could reach 10 at least. A doubling of the share price would be on the cards. An opportunistic bid can't be ruled out either?

[gaffer73] 09/6/2022 10:10

On the bright side, at least I'll get more shares when HL eventually get around to reinvesting my dividend.

[hooley] 09/6/2022 09:26

After £21m pretax profit in the first half, today's statement indicates about £40m in the second half. The special div. paid recently doesn't fit with a worried board. With more buyers than sellers today, why the big mark-down in the sp? A price to earnings ratio of about 8 is modest.

Has the never ending sale ended?..

[gaffer73] 09/6/2022 07:20

Ok trading statement but revenue expected to be lower than the 1.4b figure from Q1. Profit before tax higher than pre Covid though so this should be 200p+

[castleford tiger] 31/5/2022 13:43

The Chinese will have these at 300p minimum tiger

Average on stock exchange life 220 keep going brokers

[gaffer73] 24/5/2022 07:59

I've never seen that before either. Shows that this is undervalued imo.

[linton5] 24/5/2022 07:10

Never seen that type of rns before shares are tightly held and price is to low company can’t get there hands on shares. Will watch carefully

[castleford tiger] 18/5/2022 13:41

[gaffer73] 03/4/2022 18:51

And that's being moved out to 2024.

Short term debt is 73m at 31st Dec.

[yf23_1] 03/4/2022 16:58

Why are they returning capital (divis and buybacks) when their short-term debt is over £200m ? Total debt is high although £400m is leases. You don't want this amount of debt in a downturn.
