So there was a few months over run on the initial stock.
Not a drama.

It says I'm not, simple as that.
If you were reading when this was trading, I was expressing the same view then.
Some, savvy traders, made money, but many, the vast majority, were the ones who funded the gains of those few.

Fully agree. Why does a calm analysis always get described as laughing at folks?
The gifting of shares was the only way they could arrive at the boast of having attracted so many small investors. At best that could be viewed as spin.
At worst...well, you decide.

You seem to hold pretty much everyone in utter contempt these days.

I think you can all see from the GSC claim what it is they are trying to do.
Claiming to be successful because you have 1600 small investors, whilst knowing that they were gifted shares from the register of a previous failed company, isn't exactly an honest appraisal of the situation is it?
Claiming that Whet price went up so far, long before the vast majority of the gifted shares were actually issued, is surely a gross distortion, that rise was engineered between the very few holders at that time IMHO. The only "deal" hasn't played well so far, giving lie to the claim that they could bring extra liquidity (i.e. the former WRN mugs) and get RAP flying, based on bluster and chat board ramping.
What happened to the promised deals that were waiting 4 years and just aching to take untradeable paper?
Where is the promised good news for WRN holders.
When is the sole target of the TI litigation going to appear in court, in a criminal case brought by a private plaintiff? rare as hen's teeth those.

Predders
You are talking of a typical trader.
However, if someone knew exactly how the shares were going to go, their behaviour could well have been different couldn't it.

Whilst at the same time knowing full well that the last thing any of your brands want is non availability of a daily taken capsule.

My wild guess is that DSM know what they are doing

The capsules are also packed for other brands in Europe. I bought them from Germany a long while before Provexis Retail started selling Fruitflow direct to the public.
The be precise, it isn't DSM who make the capsules, DSM supply the Fruitflow powder inside them.

New style packaging for the Holland & Barrett launch.

Can you justify your use of the word "large" ?

Do you have a knowledge of stock levels?

However, there were some with "knowledge" surely ?

Yes.
Health and wellbeing are their speciality. Every consumer that visits H&B, be that online or in store, is a target consumer for Fruitflow.
Amazon don't have one, apart from making Jeff Bezos the richest man on earth.

This is Provexis Fruitflow brand, being promoted to their customers, a database that dwarfs that of Healthspan, who, for whatever reason, didn't give Circulease a high priority. Their loss.

To state the bleedin' obvious, that blurb is a demonstration of just how big, switched on and ambitious Holland & Barrett are.
Could it be that staff training is via their IPads too?

Opens up questions for sure.
The reason? I think the topic of conversation at the start of the day could well be valid. If there is more work to be done, having a sole "worker" so remote is an issue.

If they are invoicing, invoice factoring or invoice financing would take care of the cashflow aspect, albeit with a percentage cost to bottom line. I suggested this to IF quite a while ago, and he thanked me for the "helpful suggestion". Also, the manufacturer, and/or DSM, could also assist with a deferred invoice payment scheme. In the industry I operate in, it is fairly common to get 90 days credit, and up to 180 days is not at all unusual.

I think what I am saying is that growth doesn't HAVE to be cashflow negative, although I recognise that it is a factor we can't ignore.

Of course. I'd expect many products sold through H&B to be supplied by outsourced logistics.

It's a small difference of wording between what the RNS said, and what shareholders understandably wanted.
As it is now featured in their mag, hopefully that will be the trigger for enquiries in store, leading to stock on shelves. Point of sale promotion would be the ideal.

It is listed, it can be at any store quickly.
It is online, so can be despatched direct.

Much ado about nothing.

It does suggest the initial stock is not large, so I still wonder if it is being handles from Provexis stock.

Don't know, no one ever will.

A very strange mindset.
We talk about one aspect, and as far as you are concerned there is no other activity whatsoever.
I can say what I think it is.
Not permitted

Industry operates through specialist sales agents frequently. they get a percentage of any sale, if they sell nowt, they get nowt.

Mr Mc would, of course, have a strong incentive to introduce Fruitflow products in to H&B, so that route would also be a strong contender.

IF does nothing physical apart from attending AGM's. The whole point of outsourcing is that ultimate control can be from anywhere. The folks that urge them to go out selling ignore totally the role of DSM.

So long as Fruitflow is gaining more market exposure, revenues gained should, eventually, support added promotion without more shareholder fundings. Not there yet though.

News to me.
Begs the question, who then negotiated the collaboration with Holland & Barrett.
Dawson?
