Good opportunity to grab a few more for the dividend payouts.

[clocktower] 21/2/2024 15:52

On my watch list now, as I think the reaction was a little strong.

[disc0dave46] 21/2/2024 15:12

Does look that way. Thanks hadn't checked the trades just scanned for any news.

It’s noticeable to see how their core brand sales barring the USA have fallen a fair bit further than their nearest competitor Colefax - that may be due to the fact that Colefax are more upmarket where their customers are less price sensitive but a noticeable disparity in Uk .

[essentialinvestor] 09/2/2024 13:54

Dave, not picking up on your point specifically (to clarify) - just reiterating SDG appear to be in a challenging position in their core business. Costs look too high.

[disc0dave46] 09/2/2024 13:49

Hi EI"Not an overreaction"It's always subjective. When I posted the market always overreacts it was a generalisation, plus they stated profit would be flat which isn't good but on consensus that's a 5% to 7% miss, but the shares fell 12% and as much as nearly 16%.

[our haven] 09/2/2024 09:34

Topped up late yesterday. Not the opening I was hoping for but plan to hold for the long term.

[salver2] 08/2/2024 15:55

Small Co syndrome very little liquidity

[disc0dave46] 08/2/2024 15:53

Yep it always overreacts.

[salver2] 08/2/2024 13:32

True enough but a severe reaction nevertheless

[disc0dave46] 08/2/2024 13:19

salver They've issued a profit warning for this FY, that's why it's crashing. Consensus was for at least 5% to 7% growth in earnings, they've said zero growth, after just one month into the year as well. Yes they near enough hit forecasts for FY01/24 but non licence Rev was actually down 7.5% and only the US is showing any growth.

[trt] 08/2/2024 13:16

They are undervalued compared to profits that's why folk top up at these levels.

[alter ego] 08/2/2024 13:03

only a fool would suggest there's only one way the share price is going. So many uncertainties to throw into the mix. Keeping powder dry until it's clear is probably the sensible course.

[trt] 08/2/2024 11:20

I have grabbed a few more profits expected in line pretty much and nice cash in bank and no debt. Will bounce from here.

[alter ego] 08/2/2024 11:17

whenever a share price falls the black horse will emerge. One trick pony.
