I think it’s a better more open presentation than the last one in all fairness…

I bought in when the SP was much higher and company being in much worse shape. This a AIM stock and hence the added risk. Fundamentals are still here,and with a lower SP, business has leaky comms but the investors still have confidence, compounded by increase in revenue, better market share and now more financial visibility following arrival of new CFO (hopefully). One of the best punts on LSE to be fair. If I took notice of all the doomsayers I would have lost many of my investments! Do real investors really hang around forums that they have no interest in? Dyor, all the best with this opportunity!

I dont like what they’ve done and suspected a leak earlier this month. However, the price is low enough to take a punt and the product is still good but some serious questions need to be asked at the presentation.

Missed the opportunity to buy but it certainly woke me up from my nice dream lol…. I think there was a lot of automatic threshold sells which led to a domino effect…..

The last leak really p!ssed me off. If it’s happened again then I’m selling up and reporting them.

All bad news priced in… believe we reached the bottom and should now be looking at £1+ . There will certainly be headwinds, as with all stock, but they are confident enough to keep the Div and sure it’ll be a good stock to keep in the back pocket.

What the likely impact if they take the company private? Is there any good news to this?

I’ve purchased over 20 pairs of docs over the last 30’years. From memory, each pair where the sole has split / come away was made outside of the UK. The label in a few stipulate Vietnam. I agree with Slomo that it appears they may not be investing too well in providing good foreign quality control.

In my case, when the sole first start splitting I took it to the shop and the assistant advised that he saw a lot of them being returned for that reason and simply replaced them. I was happy that they was aware and didn’t quibble. Several splits later in more recent shoes. Customer services no longer let me return them or even provide a discount from future products . Some was marginally outside the 12 month warranty but only a calculated 15-20 hours of usage.

The reason I’m saying all of this is that i’m worried about problems in there core business. IF docs, or any other company, don’t provide proper due care, own issues and provide good customer service then it’s very easy for them to lose their USP and become like any other brand surviving on lower margins I hope I’m wrong.

I need to see some confidence before reinvesting..

After spending nearly 5 years in here, I’ll be holding out for much higher than 18p! Nearer £1.. Just shoved it in the bottom drawer with all my other punts and socks. Don’t care now if I wait until retirement or just leave the pennies as a legacy to a charity / relatives for them to decide. I still have faith…

Agree shareholder,

Tem - having a 50% sale doesn’t really mean anything. Many companies do the same. Great opportunity for SDRY to renew stock in time for the new year.

Also reading about people referring to relations not buying SDRY clothes anymore. My daughter loves it. i don’t buy M&S clothes but that means nothing Just wish I got M&S shares a couple of years ago. I’ve certainly reinvested in SDRY today… nice punt.

Very much overdone. Management knew about him leaving a long time ago...no structural change. Time to top up and bring down my average

As painful as it is I’ve bought more at 7.5…. Guess I may as well use the opportunity to lower my average (hopefuly). There’s some good points written on here and I do feel a little better. We are in a better ‘confirmed’ position than July when we was last down at this level. Just hope he comes across well and reassuring later today…..

I’ve been invested for a long time, average is remains quite high but I’m confident that the company has legs… however, I’m really fed up with obvious back street dealing and corruption. Always seems more common in AIM.

Well, if there has been a leak which just so happens to mirror a poor report then I for one will be dropping them a strongly worded letter asking for an investigation… but hopefully it won’t be necessary and it’s just been a case of lemmings following lemmings and sheep following sheep baaaaa

Anybody else think that manz and QD are a bot? Not one of those intelligent ones. Just a bot that spouts crap at regular intervals. They’ve hated this share for years but have never want to leave….

I’m nowhere near in profit on this, have probably half of what you have but do have plenty of time. Won’t be selling at 50… my target is higher. Happy to wait, even if it takes me until 2030+.

3 types of people on here…

Those that know how to invest, write constructive comments / thoughts and don’t get sucked up by the BS chat

Those that don’t know how to invest, look for help and risk making decisions based on what’s written here…

Those who have one or more multiple accounts, no interest in investing, no skills in either investing or social, and are only made happy when writing BS to get a reaction so that somebody will talk to them

Likewise, got more at 80p. For the whiners that aren’t investing and just have nothing better to do than promote negatively on random stocks then have a lovely afternoon…

Just glad I’m managing to bring down my average with this great opportunity. Wish I never sold out of RR when I did. Not making the same mistake with this.

Very good posts Ronnie for the nervous investors. Like you I’ve been here for quite awhile, even before COVID. Seen the SP go up and down several times. I just keep adding each time it drops to lower my average. Have full confidence. In my earlier days I’ve sold out of companies too quickly that have far worse accounts and since regretted it. I’ve got quite a few years in me yet before I need my pension. DYOR.
