'JD Wetherspoon: Pubs chain puts mis-steak behind it with new meat supply deal'

....The update came as calls were made for the Food Standards Agency to release more details about its concerns over Russell Hume, which also supplies some goods to Marston’s, Green King and clubs chain Tiger Tiger. The FSA said this week that there is no indication that people have become ill from eating meat supplied by the company.

Pretty good performance today.

"...Greene King has industry-leading brands, a strong and flexible balance sheet, and a sustainable dividend, leaving us well placed given the challenging market conditions."

Usual piffle from the board but there should be upside from here. We are unlikely to have snow disruption as we move through the year and in some parts of the business the company is actually outperforming the market. It says the dividend is sustainable and I can see a steady rise from here of about 10% possible in relief as much as anything else that the results weren't worse.

A very poorly performing management with a pub menu style list of excuses but selling now in what is probably the low point of the share price would only leave you crying in your beer.

[philanderer] 25/1/2018 08:41

Yep, looks like it was all priced in.

Morning wf :-)

[waspfactory] 25/1/2018 08:40

Keep them coming phil :)

Well, the share price hasn't been hammered so the results are in line with the city boys expectations. Good dividend and steady share price rise from here imo.

Either side of the two Christmas weeks sales were slower, reflecting the tough underlying trading environment and additional snow impact.

Pub Company LFL sales for the first 37 weeks of the year were -1.4%. Drink and room LFL sales were ahead of last year while food LFL sales remained behind last year.




Looks rubbish

I'm relying on your unswerving optimism for a surprisingly positive update phil.

[philanderer] 24/1/2018 14:15

Toss of a coin for tomorrow's update .

Like MARS explanation of cold weather / snow maybe ??

[philanderer] 24/1/2018 09:50

Coming of a tad now , maybe down to...

"We face significant costs in the second half in areas which include labour, business rates and the sugar tax. There will also be some uncertainty as to the effects on our business of the FIFA World Cup," said Chairman Tim Martin.

[philanderer] 24/1/2018 08:58

JDW going well on today's release.

[essentialinvestor] 23/1/2018 11:02

Phil, I'm adding to TATE in small amounts. Penultimate NAFTA round
kicks off today. Taking a view that ultimately reason will prevail and
agreement is reached. May be messy in the meantime and a few months down the line.

Apologies - off topic.

[philanderer] 23/1/2018 11:00

My lovely lady was on the 6:32am to London Paddington apparently ;-D

[essentialinvestor] 23/1/2018 10:54

My better half was up at 6.30am unfortunately!.

[essentialinvestor] 23/1/2018 10:39

Hi Phil, thanks for your view, may have held otherwise.

I was very tempted by a little MARS trade this AM, down near 1.08,
could not bring myself to click buy.

[philanderer] 23/1/2018 10:36

Pub owner Marston's shed 5.5% after revealing that snow and icy weather had disrupted business in early December and between Christmas and New Year.

sp recovering from early fall.

[essentialinvestor] 20/1/2018 11:52

Phil, looks a good call of yours on RTN, another low yesterday.
I asked your view in December. Held my very small trade for all of half a day!.

15th jan Liberum buy tp 690p cut from 720p

[jeffian] 12/1/2018 11:01

That's because it's not a dc! It will trundle along as it has done for the past few hundred years. It will not cut its dividend. I've held this share for ever and simply buy more when the market offers them to me cheap (as I did recently when it thought HSBC bank was a basket case at 485p on a 7%+ yield).
