There should definitely be a trading update, expect an RNS at 0700 hrs. Hopefully all should be well, and we should get to know how Ramadan / overseas sales went. A fair few buys going through this afternoon

AGM tomorrow.

I suppose there's a chance they may throw in a trading update.

The usual big swings in the shareprice with that spread :-)

Still happy to hold.

Well, I guess there's no such thing as bad publicity. Likely A G Barr stirring up the hornets nest. I'm not a chemist but I guess that if non animal vitamin D can be used, then that seems the optimum choice. See if anything gets said at the AGM.

Notwithstanding the above, share price making steady progress and hopefully a good trading update at the AGM will help push things along. Would help if BoD could issue earnings guidance now that Boris has decreed that "there is no going back ...", with respect to lockdowns.

Product still looks to be going well at the shops that I frequent, at least as good or better than the usual competition.

Couple of small late AT 'buys' at 1400p just before the close.

That’s encouraging. Obviously dealers are placing orders in auctions which suggest a positive rerating. Only problem with NICL is the wide spread and narrowly traded shares, which means its hard to get in, and get out in any volume. However, all looks set fair for a gradual rise. Just need to be smart when buying / selling.

Fingers crossed :-)

Hmmm,. I think you're right there. Still Vimto Marketing were quick to exploit the story, at least they are on the ball. I have noticed "Feel Good" drinks appearing on the shelves of Booths Supermarkets, along with Vimto frozen ice lollies. Also, Booths seem to be selling a fair amount of the "remix" flavours and give a fair amount of shelf space to them. Plus, the Vimto flavoured water seems to be going well in the "meal deal" section.

Also, noted that Octopus has increased their shareholding from ~ 7% to ~ 8%.

All good at the mo. Hopefully Ramadan sales went well, and we should get a decent trading update at the AGM in a couple of weeks. I expect that we should be comfortably back to around £15 - £16 after the half year results.

Phil, that was where I saw the reference, but I haven't spotted it in any retail outlets. I'm rather sad, as I always look to see how Vimto products are represented on retail shelves, vs the competition.

[philanderer] 31/3/2021 14:16

dD , I've not seen vimto chutney anywhere, but I've seen people talking about it on twitter :-)

Feel Good Drinks launches new four-pack format





IB Group and Vimto expand partnership

[disneydonald] 26/3/2021 00:09

All is going well, I expect the share price to be back around £15 - £17 by late summer. BTW, has anyone come across Vimto Chutney ? Seems recently launched.

[philanderer] 25/3/2021 13:16

Good volume again today , 107k printed so far.

[philanderer] 24/3/2021 17:56

Relatively good volume today 40k traded

edit:
2L bottles of cordial back to full whack in Sainsbury's this morning. Good job I've bought a fair few over the last few weeks ;-)

Vimto relaunches with emphasis on health and new flavour

[philanderer] 16/3/2021 18:01

EI, the spread is ridiculous. Tightly held I suppose.

[philanderer] 16/3/2021 14:16

20,000 printed so far today, which is high for NICL ;-)

[disneydonald] 05/3/2021 23:46

Also a similar buy from the CEO today. If that was their own money (not a company loan), then that should be considered significant given their background and previous earnings. They will know the real numbers for this year so far, so that's encouraging.

Small buy from the CFO yesterday
