Per the last interims they were hardly even making a gross profit. It's not ideal when you can't even sell luxury items for more than you buy them.

Any thoughts on that?

Hi

I haven't looked at this in years ...I always kicked myself for not buying in 2005 when it got down here and went to £1.20 in short order. I always see it as a luxury brand but they are all flying at the moment on silly multiples. Anyone in a good mood and want to give me a 2 minute summary of the current position?

150k late reported sell at 18p explains a lot. Plenty of distressed selling going on today, all over the AIM market.

Certainly looks that way Pug and still we hear nothing from the company. Share price is down over 70% since the January highs and still the board remain silent.

£3,700 approx of sells (they all look like sells to me) knock the price by 21%. Virtually unsaleble - looks as though BLING has gone out of bling.

07 June 2011 Theo Fennell PLC ("Theo Fennell")Holdings in Company

The Board of Theo Fennell PLC, the AIM-listed international, luxury jeweller, was informed on 6 June 2011 that Julian Barnett no longer has a notificable interest in the issued share capital of Theo Fennell.

Anyone know anything about Julian and is his sell down significant ?

Is he this one ?



Julian Barnett raises $200m for hedge fund

By Sam Jones, Hedge Fund Correspondent

Published: June 7 2010 02:04 | Last updated: June 7 2010 02:04

Julian Barnett, the 33-year-old star hedge fund trader who left London hedge fund manager Polar Capital a year ago, has raised close to $200m (£138m) for his new venture, Ridley Park Capital, according to brokers.


Late mark 100,000 SOLD at 21p - Maybe 21p is the new realistic price for the shares.

Who knows TOWS. If she has sold and it's a big then something must be wrong and she's got out before it hits the press. If on the other hand everything is running satisfactory and sales are picking up why would she sell?

Final results last year were published in June so hopefully we'll get an update soon. We could bloody do with one, things are looking pretty dire from a share price point of view.

Where do we think this will end? Barbara Snoad took this company to the heady heights of £1.40+, which is when I bought in. Her departure and the possible sale of her stock (at a personal loss) are not good signs...

Are we heading to bankruptcy?

[smudgeroo] 06/6/2011 14:35

Could be Pugugly. There's been a few large sells over the last few weeks so perhaps we have a distressed seller. That's the problem with this stock, it's so illiquid that even the smallest of trades move the share price.

[pugugly] 06/6/2011 14:17

100,000 shares sold at 26p - ? Ex departing ceo ??

Could take a long time to be shifted

[bonio10000] 06/6/2011 09:49

The new Hot Tuna imho.

[pugugly] 06/6/2011 09:29

Departure of CEO - Not good news (imo). Market reacting by a further mark down.



Could this go the way of many in the retail busines ?

[smudgeroo] 17/5/2011 08:16

It would appear we are well located. Worth a read:

[smudgeroo] 16/5/2011 10:59

Some big buys going through today!

[smudgeroo] 12/5/2011 13:34

Could do with some news from the company, good or bad. Share price has drifted a fair bit on small selling and little interest. June is usually the month for a trading update so I guess we'll have to wait until then. It'll be interesting to see how our international stores have been performing.

[shorty] 27/4/2011 21:55

needed some funds so got out yesterday, sold 23k but not seen it go through yet. If the funds permit in a few months time I may revisit. Trouble here is what everyone else says, no news flow and the price drifts down. good luck to all.

[pugugly] 20/4/2011 11:19

Smudgeroo & bladeboy: Many thanks - I will follow up.

[bladeboy] 19/4/2011 11:43

Smudgeroo, you just beat me to it :-)

PUGUGLY, TFL are far from only a UK company.

[smudgeroo] 19/4/2011 09:48

PUGUGLY,

Apologies for the delay in replying.

As well as having 12 stores / outlets within the UK they also have 12 international outlets in the following countries:

Australia, Bahrain, Barbados, Beijing, Dubai, Hong Kong, Kazakhstan and Moscow.

[shorty] 19/4/2011 09:24

Pugugly - TFL are not only UK based they are global either direct or through distributors. This approach always helps to smooth any profit curves.

[pugugly] 12/4/2011 13:23

Smudgeroo:. Yes but TFL are only in the uK. Refs shows 100% of t/o in uK. I woulod strongly suspect they could be hit hard by the econonic squese - the last trading update indicated that results would be below market expectations at that time.

Any thoughts as to how bad times could be ?

I don't know if anyone saw Mulberry's trading update last week but it makes for encouraging reading and should bode well for the luxury goods sector:

RNS Number : 7489C

Mulberry Group PLC

11 March 2011

Mulberry Group PLC ("Mulberry")

Trading update

Mulberry Group plc, the English luxury fashion brand, announces today that due to strong UK and export salesduring January and February which have continued into March, sales and profit for the year ending 31 March 2011 are expected to exceed market expectations.

Margins for the year to date have continued to be strong as increased sales have led to improved operational gearing. Order intake for the Autumn 2011 collection is encouraging.
