In for the first time here this morning .. no stamp duty as well :-)

Luck to all holders.

Solid and unflashy as usual. Excellent.

[ygor706] 08/1/2015 08:07

No shocks in the update. Steady as she goes!

Investors here should note that SAB Miller has started to move into overseas soft drinks markets with the announcement of a tie up with a french company to bottle coca cola in Africa. Miller are a big player and could easily mop up a few smaller uk drinks companies over the next 12 months or so ....they have cash to spend,

[ygor706] 20/11/2014 08:37

Will the removal of the beer tie help Nichols? I think it might.

Outlook

We expect our UK performance for the remainder of 2014 to maintain the positive trend seen in the first half of the year.

In light of the strong performance of in-country sales and the change in timing of shipments to the Middle East, we anticipate International revenues in the second half of 2014 to be ahead of the prior year.

In summary, the Board believes that full year performance will be in line with current expectations.

I can see nothing in the press to justify a fall of this magnitude. The fine is ancient history and sterling as a strong currency doesn't really do it for me either. I think that the low volume observation is relevant and do wonder if Nichols market cap is working against it at the moment. There may be some portfolio rationalisations going on here and clearly large lines would take a long time to shift. We may soon be getting towards a buy point but I would like to hear something from the company before topping up.

To be fair it's been on a very high rating and even now bit pricey. Might be nothing wrong at all with trading just that share price got overheated. Exactly like TEP earlier this year.

[lobby ludd] 13/11/2014 20:21

ygor706 Was thinking the same. Results not due for a while, but you'd think given the fine summer, trading would have been good. You'd think the market would already have discounted the £8m hit from the legal case(as you said in July). The strong pound be hurting exports ? An excessive amount discounting going on in the supermarkets (there seems to be).

Only one third of average daily volume over 3 months so no real conviction in any move? MMs looking for stock? Can't find anything of any substance

[ygor706] 13/11/2014 16:52

Quite a fall here against a zero news background. What's happening that we don' t know about?

[hydrus] 13/11/2014 15:12

Chart not looking that great, where will it stop, £8?

[robow] 03/10/2014 13:25

Not quite the usual publicity!

[ygor706] 14/8/2014 17:57

Looks to me as if the chart is forming a reverse head and shoulders. Things looking better here than they have for some little time!

[ygor706] 24/7/2014 12:21

The interims look pretty good to me considering the negative impact of currency movements on overseas sales. The litigation loss is unfortunate but that now looks to have been discounted by the share price The share price was running a little ahead of itself last year and it may be awhile before we see £12 again. That all said, we have a very good business here that should continue to make progress.

[lobby ludd] 24/7/2014 12:09

Greatinterim results today.

[lobby ludd] 22/7/2014 12:06

On the upside this summer's weather could hardly have been better for soft drinks sales; and I notice Nichols 'Levi Roots' brand gaining supermarket shelf space. The interims next week (court case aside) should be good.
