John09 a big trade for you then

What I don't understand is how there can be articles revealing such precise figures before the official announcement takes place. This is an example...

If the figures are correct, what will have caused a 10 per cent fall in pre-tax profits?

[nw99] 26/11/2017 20:08

The great bit I like is the Vet clinics .The group was forced to cut prices on specialist pet food at the beginning of the year, to close the gap with online rivals offering cheaper goods. It sparked an uplift in sales, but it is the retailer's higher- margin services division - salons and vet clinics - which is expected to show the biggest growth, up 14.3%.

Well at the moment, the answer to the thread question appears to be that PETS is some sort of photoshopped dogcat thing. Hopefully that will change.

Ok I’ve read it. Hardly call it a great article! But reading between the lines it expects the company to release good figures this week. Good for me because I hold 25,000!

[nw99] 26/11/2017 15:37

Yes great article

[john09] 26/11/2017 12:56

Pleased for you that these have appeared in the ST Business section this week.
Am not actively trading at the moment but can't help taking an interest.

See my post on CVSG BB. 393

'Why is this so much higher PE ratio than say Pets at Home?
Both seem to have good fundamentals but isn't 75 a bit rich?

Just curious on passing through the bbs.'

[nw99] 22/11/2017 14:18

"Pets at Home opens new store within Tesco Extra

Pets at Home has partnered with Tesco to open a new store within the supermarket chain’s Durham branch.
The store officially opened on 11 November at Tesco Extra on Durham’s Dragonville Industrial Estate. It includes a pet pharmacy which will provide a large range of health care products including supplements, first aid, dental care and flea and worms treatments.
Store manager Jill Allen has been with Pets at Home for over two years, having previously worked at the Alnwick branch.
Jill said: “Our new store features thousands of dedicated pet products for not only local dogs and cats but small animals, fish and local wildlife too.” All colleagues at the new store receive training on pet care and pet knowledge which is endorsed by City & Guilds.
Lisa and Thomas Dixon from Dogs for Good and their dog, Vito, officially opened the store. Family activities such as face painting and a balloon modeller were used to attract customers to the launch.
As yet, Pets at Home has not revealed whether further stores will be opened within supermarkets across the UK. Pet Gazette has approached Pets at Home for comment."

This business would be a useful add on for any of the supermarket chains. Maybe Tesco will notice that now?
