Good housekeeping - a company with 400+ employees can't need a CEO and a group MD

Probably overdue but left till now to keep IPO on track.

Investors Chronic tipped on 10th Feb - at 110/112 - Could well (imo) initially have been short term proit taking followed by stop losses being triggered for late takers of the IC tip - NB No knowledge just speculating based on size of trades.

Could well have further momentum driven falls.

Whats going on with this share price ? Hoping its just light relief before another upsurge...

[hopeful holder] 18/2/2017 10:30

Nice steady rise and I see that continuing to the 140 level and perhaps even higher. This company is one of those that you tuck away for a few months and come back to a nice surprise.

28th Feb is the payment date of first dividend.

[philoosh] 17/2/2017 12:21

When do Van Elle payout on their first dividend?

[irenekent] 13/2/2017 07:59

I hope they didn't do the piling on the new Liverpool super-dock that has developed a enormous sink-hole. It will cost a packet to fix.

[alfieduncan] 10/2/2017 08:15

Nice start. Hope we can hold on to the gains.
Unfortunately a tip from IC doesn`t always translate into a sustained demand for the stock

[someuwin] 10/2/2017 08:01

Hopefully will move back up rapidly.

Nothing skinny about InnovaDerma's "spectacular" revenue growth driven by Superdrug push
Share
09:28 09 Feb 2017
The Skinny Tan firm said revenues jumped 125.5% to £3.187mln in the six months to December 31 driven by a successful penetration of the UK market.

InnovaDerma said Superdrug increased shelf space for Skinny Tan on average by a factor of four since January 2016
Shares in Skinny Tan firm InnovaDerma PLC (LON:IDP) jumped higher this morning after the self-tanning and skin and hair rejuvenation group said its first-half revenues soared by over 125% and that the second-half has seen a “very strong start”.

The firm said group revenues jumped to £3.187mln in the six months to December 31, up from £1.414mln at the same stage in 2015, driven by a successful penetration of the UK market through Superdrug and direct-to-consumer sales.

InnovaDerma - which moved production to the UK from Australia during the period to improve its supply chain – said gross profits increased by 131% to £1.837mn.

However, the group’s pretax loss rose to £0.154mln, up from £0.004mln, as a result of one-off exceptional listing costs and the strategic initiatives to expand the business.

Superdrug boost …

InnovaDerma said: “Superdrug has increased shelf space for Skinny Tan on average by a factor of four since January 2016, which has increased its visibility in their stores and enhanced the performance of the UK business.”

The group also said the Skinny Tan brand had been extended to 33 products, up from 25 previously, to take advantage of the brand's growing popularity.

The firm also said it had made a “very strong start to the second half of the year with January 2017 delivering the highest ever monthly sales in what is considered to be the slowest month in the self-tanning industry.”

InnovaDerma added that its US performance is in line with expectations after launching in November 2016, with the group securing opening orders for Skinny Tan from Harmon Retail Chain - a subsidiary of Bed Bath and Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ:BBBY).

In early morning trading, InnovaDerma shares were up 16.6%, or to 21.0p to 147.5p.

Spectacular growth …

Haris Chaudhry, InnovaDerma’s executive chairman said: "I am pleased with the sound structural changes made in the first half which has contributed to a strong start to the second half.

“We are confident in our immediate and long term prospects and of emerging as a fast-growing international business with a diverse portfolio in the beauty, cosmetics and personal care space.”

Broker Hybridan said: “InnovaDerma has booked H1 numbers showing spectacular growth.”

It added: “Plenty more to look forward to in H2. Improved supply chain should boost margins. Lots to come from new product roll outs and the US has started encouragingly.”;

Robbie Burns has bought back in again

[alfieduncan] 09/2/2017 15:58

A bit of interest today with a flurry of smallish buy trades in last couple of hours.
Something in the pipeline...

[gswredland] 02/2/2017 17:56

Agreed Alfie
Bought in yesterday

[alfieduncan] 02/2/2017 09:53

Classic bit of jobbing by the market makers over the last couple of trading days.
Shake rattle and then a recovery on smallish volume.
Hold tight I think the confidence will return in my limited opinion.

[gswredland] 31/1/2017 17:29

Me too. Been looking at them for a while and wishing I had bought.

[basem1] 31/1/2017 16:18

There'll be buyers at the pound level or slightly above, I'd be happy with some at £1.02/3.

[hopeful holder] 31/1/2017 15:47

Phil. No idea but I'm holding at the moment

[philoosh] 31/1/2017 12:42

So in your humble opinions is this likely to drop even further?

[davep4] 29/1/2017 23:41

He lost a few ££ on his trade, (he thought the trading statement was ok but sold because the market didn't like the same).

[alfieduncan] 29/1/2017 15:57

Thks. Yes have heard of him but not for a while. A carpetbagger on this occasion?

[basem1] 29/1/2017 13:44

You mean you've never heard of the Naked Trader...aka Robbie Burns. ??
