Fevertree Drinks Share Discussion Threads

Strangely repetitive daily trading pattern. Up first thing, then sellers bring it down to sub-£16.50.
Profit-taking ahead of results?

[wetdream] 08/5/2017 15:38

May have to wait for the AGM before the share price clears and holds £16.50.

New highs as the drinks sell well, and brand strengthening, in the French celebrations.

Is that Chrome v2.may ?

[melton john] 06/5/2017 18:16

I'm looking for "strong and stable" bamboo2 lol. I've heard that before somewhere.

[bamboo2] 05/5/2017 22:26

fwiw, If you want to use JAVA applications on advfn, IE seems to be the only choice for now. Otherwise I have found Chrome to be reliable and stable.

[melton john] 05/5/2017 20:46

Yeah, almost as good as Firefox and doesn't have issues with other progs like Java and plugins like Firefox. Crashes very occasionally but restarts ok.

[panic investor] 05/5/2017 20:39

I.E. still exists ?

[melton john] 05/5/2017 20:37

Staverly, re cut and paste prob. Are you using Microsoft Edge browser? It won't let you. I bought a new laptop with Edge and gave up, use IE 11 instead.

[panic investor] 05/5/2017 18:40

WD it is the norm in the south east - Schweppes and britvic don't exist

[staverly] 05/5/2017 17:48

Wetdream ...may i refer you to c1 p12, last sentence of penultimate paragraph, current AR. Tried to cut and paste it, no joy.

I guess the 'trick' for Fever Tree is to make their (premium) brand become the norm when ordering a G&T etc.
As long as people's disposable income allows, then they won't notice/care they're paying a premium price.

speaking to a client today who has just flown in from NY - never heard of Fever but gin bars over there have taken off. He's headed back out there on Monday and will let me know when he see's FEVR on the shelves.

Fever-Tree: Creating an iconic brand

Apart from a Madagascan Cola to cool me down when I see the relentless climb in share price I also remind myself that a take-out would involve, at least, a 30% price premium.
This usually jolts me into inaction and I return to my reveries. ;-)

[apad] 03/5/2017 12:38

ps
FEVR now 21% of portfolio. I used to have a 5% limit on a holding - what a prat!

Keep thinking of top-slicing, but a G&T makes the feeling go away.

[Putting on my Jesters hat] Okay then, perhaps for starters, next time Warren buffett visits the UK [Bloomberg/CNBC studios] lets get Warren Buffet drinking Fever-Tree Madagascan Cola instead of his daily Coca-Cola and have a photo shared on social media outlets!



[Substitute Fever-Tree in above photo!!]

[apad] 03/5/2017 12:11

I'd prefer a social media gentle roll out, MW ?

This bad baby pays a divi and employs a handfull of people.

My cash flow numbers for the last two results are stellar:

Investing Cash Flow (£m) (0.8) (0.4)
Free Cash Flow (£m) 19.8 10.0

I'm glad you don't have your nasty sticky fingers on their budget :-)

Fever-Tree should get Tim Warrillow and/or Charles Rolls on CNBC again, but this time in the States in the NYSE on Squawk Box or Squawk on the Street.

Give Jim Cramer, et al at CNBC some Fever-Tree, some freebies to put on the desk. Get 'em drinking Fever-Tree Madagascan Cola instead of their regular.

Consider a US listing, get Jim Cramer talking Fever-Tree, then get him talk about it on Mad Money.

That may help work wonders!

Get a US listing, and get bought out by Monster Beverage [NYSE: MNST], The Coca-Cola Company [NYSE: KO] etc.

;)

I think there is an issue in the numbers about not emulating as speedy a UK performance rise in Europe, a.

Jury out on the US.

What do you think about this?

great performance on the sector, I should know. Dis doing well if you followed that one.

Stock Spirits looking cheap now by comparison. Worth a look.

Seen the article myself now.

What LJ doesn't touch on is the following point made in the Prelim Results:

"it is notable that gin only accounts for 6% of the global premium spirits category. The dark spirits category, on the other hand, accounts for 60% of global premium spirits, ten times the size. ...... New Fever-Tree products will be launched in 2017 to complement our existing dark spirit mixing range, reintroducing quality and choice to the trade and consumers of dark spirits. We believe that an exciting opportunity exists to work alongside the premium spirits brands to reinvigorate the dark spirits category, in much the same way we approached the gin category over ten years ago."
