Cash has gone from Β£15m in Jan 21 to Β£14m now, in other words there are trading cycles too, to take into account.
Considering over that time they have opened 7 new stores (300k inv each plus stock?), a Euro distribution centre (plus at least Β£2m stock for it) and temporarily increased UK stock to overcome supply chain issues, I think the cash management here has been much, much better than usual. You see far more Co's splurging when they have spare dosh.
Re Margins, the figures are all there to see and the growth of their own brand seems to be giving them that ability to compete.
