Nichols Share Discussion Threads

Yeah, I got the invitation from the Investor Meet people. I hold VLX and they use Investor Meet as well. Looking up re communications for NICL, usually they say nowt ! Maybe now that the family have representation on the Board, they are supportive of promoting NICL. I guess if there was any bad news the new management team (CEO and CFO) wouldn't take the hot seat next week.

Quite a bit of profit taking in a lot of the small caps yesterday.

[disneydonald] 22/6/2021 08:45

There’s nothing that I can find. Maybe it’s just profit taking after such a good recovery in the share price this last couple of months. Maybe the Market over reacted to the continuation of COVID restrictions for another month.

[philanderer] 21/6/2021 15:11

1640p down to 1400p in twelve days.

That's a rapid fall. Hopefully no major issues.

[disneydonald] 08/6/2021 15:45

All this good weather is encouraging for the OoH sector. The second quarter OoH sales should have recovered well, and if cordial sales still going well at home and abroad then I reckon that overall first half trading may surprise to the upside. Either way we will soon find out when first half closes out in three weeks.

[philanderer] 03/6/2021 14:46

1600p AT buys today

[disneydonald] 01/6/2021 12:12

Yeah, reasonable analysis. However, written by a US based commentator, so likely no actual feel for what reality looks like, just a fair guess. The "pubs" side of things are related to the dispense side of the business which includes a wider range than just pubs, but clubs , caravan sites etc. Also, the OoH sector includes all the discretionary purchases made for individual portion sizes, shops, canteens etc. Which should go well as UK starts to mobilise again.

Finally I would add that NICL now has has new management (CEO, CFO and their respective long term incentives now in place), and the family now have Board representation (no doubt to look after their ~35% stake), so hopefully lots of motivated execs to drive things forward. I still reckon we should move forward especially once half year results announced.

Nichols: Fair Value Amidst Subdued Demand

[philanderer] 20/5/2021 13:55

Buys coming in at 1500p+ this morning.

[philanderer] 19/5/2021 01:13

I've held BVIC for many years and tuesday's announcement was a very good one .

[disneydonald] 18/5/2021 12:50

Britvic market update bullish today, bodes well for NICL. Lots of buys coming through this morning, maybe on the back of Britvic bullish update. Next couple of weeks should see the share price go well, assuming no unforeseen market tantrums.

[disneydonald] 13/5/2021 12:55

All feels good with NICL, steady progress being made. I have taken a few profits from my SB positions at 1500, but holding my long term real holdings.

[philanderer] 12/5/2021 15:31

Picked up a couple of 1 litre bottles of Vimto 'remix' squash (orange/strawberry/lime) in Sainsbury's on 'clearance offer' for 90p each this morning.

Never tried it before but just had a glass and it's very good :-)

Marketing Director of NicholsPlc , Emma Hunt, will present on 'refillution' at the 2021 UK Soft Drinks Conference on 11 May.

[philanderer] 28/4/2021 14:46

Tricky to read too much into charts and with low volumes but it does look clear to 160p. Fingers crossed ;-)

[disneydonald] 28/4/2021 13:46

Well, NICL are traditionally a company of few words. Their public statements are of a minimal nature, and they don’t do self promotion. Still, all good and as the OoH business recovers the share price should continue to move forward.

Could do with a larger free float to encourage more trading.

[philanderer] 28/4/2021 09:26

Morning dD

Well that update rocked the world , 473 shares traded ;-)

[disneydonald] 27/4/2021 14:35

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.

[philanderer] 22/4/2021 16:49

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

Still happy to hold.

[disneydonald] 21/4/2021 23:22

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.
