Make sense PIM we have RTD launched Sept last year. 1 Year latter have it listed

CO-OP; TESCO and MORRISONS.

Spot on indeed Berny - I'm even hopeful I might break even soon. No really, it's looking very good. And FWIW, I'm predicting more new product before Christmas. Have a good weekend all.

JK,

Distil share price 03/01/20 0.70
FTSE 100 03/01/20 7,622.40

Distil share price 04/09/20 1.40
FTSE 100 04/09/20 5,819.44

That is 100% gain for the year on the penny dreadful and minus 23.65% for the FTSE

I am quite liking this penny dreadful stuff

We need buyers something lacking history has always played a part in share price activety
History the scourge of penny dreadfuls

CFEP 1.30-1.60
PEEL 1.30-1.60
WINS 1.25-1.55
JBER 1.00-1.50
SCAP 1.20-1.50

WINS was our changer yesterday dropping their bid and ask from 1.3-1.60 to 1.25-1.55

Suggests that there is stock around which is good as the market needs some liquidity to progress.

Good luck all

Z x 3p next week eh 😄

Really suitable for investment .Our core brands and new products performed well in a highly competitive market. Our operating profit grew year on year and we remain in a strong cash position, debt free.

That’s a lie as you would have had to read our posts to comment on them illegitimate

I've ignored two fools.

Yes that was me and I bought at that time however my average is still giving me a 38% deficit
However at one time I was 70% down
I like you have had lows and highs but I grumble and criticise the company as others do simply out of frustration at the lack of progress from a company that’s very sound is making
Companies in the Aim cesspit with market cap of £7/8 Million are prone to stagnation
As it’s a very volatile place
I do believe we will make money over the next few years but we need more buyers
Who spot the potential
and that’s the biggest asset it’s potential with a great range of products

>Jane - was it you who told that chump chimers last year that to buy then would inevitably lead to profit?

Whoever it was, they were right - As of today, I make that a 100% gain

[janekane] 03/9/2020 11:51

I was hoping for trades today to be similar to yesterday’s and a rise accordingly
However it looks like another lacklustre day Trading wise

>Jane: 18 April 2018 - Budweiser owner AB Inbev purchased UK-based whisky blender and online retailer Atom Group owner of Master of Malt, for an undisclosed sum.''

The reason I put this snippet up is that since the take over AB Inbev has instructed MoM not to export any spirits products (therefore including our RedLeg) into the United States where they have their own huge grip on the US booze market. I haven't tried to find any up to date stats but I do know that in 2014 AB Inbev owned a massive 45% of the US beer market and can more or less impose any of their own rules on any booze supplier.

Whitmore and white stock red leg and cola
Master of malt another big outlet stock red leg

[janekane] 03/9/2020 10:22

Good posts both of you
With all this production to satisfy demand ime very Surprised we haven’t attracted more interest
Still we are debt free and productivity is considerably higher every month

Be interesting to try.

I have not come across the pineapple version of the Franklin and Sons yet.

Good to know that the original RTD has listing

COOP
Morrisons
Tesco

The margins on sales of these will be greater than straight bottles as Distil would not have the costs associated with bottling, transportation and marketing.

Getting greater distribution is key and it looks like the company is doing that well.

[petersinthemarket] 03/9/2020 10:15

Tesco's as well? - Well spotted Berny.
I've seen Franklins cans in Tesco, but not the RedLeg cans.

[berny3] 03/9/2020 10:10

Sorry update Pete it is available in Tesco

[berny3] 03/9/2020 10:06

Pete - COOP as I recall was for Christmas period 19 in COOP now it is Morrisons. For a newly established brand to have two supermarket listings within the first year. Is very good. It would not be surprising to see Tesco take a listing. I keep an eye out on the website for that.

Note: Franklin and Sons is available in Hilton. Not sure whether the Redleg cans are getting in there too but all this is increasing the potential distribution network.

[petersinthemarket] 03/9/2020 09:32

Berny - Tks for pointing out Franklins in Morrisons too
I'd missed that
