Hello, Sea. Thank you for the email; I will send you an email with my email shortly after this.
Cheers.

Hi ST.
Following the issue with sending me a message, I'll give you an old email address of mine. If you want to 'link up' via email that would be great. If not, no offence will be taken I assure you.
It's keith.hinde@btinternet.com
If you want to send me an email on there, I will send you my real email address then it will remove the need to post stuff like today on a board. If you do, let me know that you've sent an email as I don't check that address as it's an old one.
As I said, I won't be offended if you'd prefer to keep it anonymous and via LSE.
Best regards.
cracking trading update today. Fran is growing really well - 2021 looks like it will be a really profitable year
I see they posted a recording of it later, which I've now watched. Same link as the original meeting if anyone else is looking for it.
I was unable to attend the webinar today (https://presentations.investormeetcompany.com/investor-meet-company/FRANCHISE-BRANDS-PLC-Final-results-for-the-year-ended-31-December-2020).
Would be very grateful if anyone here did attend and could share any insights from it? Thank you so much in advance.
could do with a trading update, not only to update on progress but also put some life into the share price. Notice there was one early Oct last year so hopefully we'll get one in the next 2 or 3 weeks.
Andy Ross: Franchise Brands
Franchise Brands (LSE: FRAN) is a franchisor. Its franchises include consumer-facing ones such as ChipsAway and Ovenclean as well as business to business ones such as Metro Plumb and Willow Pumps.
I like that management are experienced operators. The executive chairman spent 21 years at Domino’s, which operates a franchise model. A number of the board and other senior management personnel also worked at Domino’s so know the industry well.
It’s an entrepreneurial company which has made acquisitions and retains talent within the business.
Franchisors can make good margins because it’s an asset light business model and I think that bodes well now and in the future.
Andy Ross does not own shares in Franchise Brands.
H1 2020 numbers also really good despite COVID and Metro Rod going great guns.
Very undervalued IMHO
great results today - steady growth across all areas. Is this stock unloved - not a comment for over 6 months!!
Decent results and TS today. Feel this has a lot further to run but will be a slow plodder over the next 12-18 months rather than a crazy speculative roller coaster! Happy days
Mr Poutney is collecting a fair amount of shares here. Another 200k spent.
Well there is your director buys lbg. 170k is a nice chunk to add to previous large buys. The company is progressing well. Metro rod slightly exceeding expectactions. Carry on as they are and loans will be paid off sooner. Nice to have a dividend paid here too. I also bought in here in the sixties with intention of holding a couple of years and see how the company grows. I think i am going to get a quicker return than i originally expected. Once Interims are done we could be looking at over a pound. The bod certainly seem to have confidence.
Nice rise today. No news for it yet but I�m guessing we will see a RNS stating bod buys. Big amounts again. Don�t you just love the way they can get their shares at a reduced rate? Hence the delayed buys dated 27th.
For all those hoping for a boost in this one, Barking Mad are shortlisted for a Franchise award by HSBC, final in FRanchiser of the year awards in Birmingham ICC in June. Might help to restore some hope as it's all been a little lackluster lately.
Im new here...Feels good im in for a few years been watching this one for over a year ..GLA
Excellent update recently followed by more bod buys, and not a small amount either. Nice break out of the downward trend signalling a change in direction. Upwards. One to hold for the future as I see way more here to come. gla
Bought in recently. This looks to be a share to hold for a couple of years. Got in early. May possible go lower but will add if it does. gla
