"Bon who's this mr humphreys?"

I have an inkling that percypoop is the latest alias of neilhumphreys5ya.

"Yup bought from admin at $20m or £16m in 2017 had two profitable years in 20 and 21 ....£2.8m and £5.6 then continues to lose 8 figs a year since. No hope for nastgal. Should get rid of nl and there is more potential in rebrand of plt and debenhams."

So if a brand proves to be an ill-fated acquisition, the company response over multiple years is just to do... nothing? Let it continue to hemorrhage cash year after year until the entire group succumbs?

"Why do you two, you know who you are, simply get a room somewhere??

You’re clearly in love, intellectually.

I wish you’d do us all a favour and bugger off, you have both ruined this chat resource."

Use the filter Mr Humphreys, that's what it is for. 👍

"Nastygal was bought out of administration and it was Boo management that grew the revenue. Despite the revenue growth it had tiny margins and was largely loss making., probably due to US sales costs.

So they deprioritised it."

The numbers should show it, if it is as clear as that. Care to oblige?

"Gone are the days of the Kamanis spending SCB's money on Mariah Carey and Andrea Bocelli. Turnover will be down but profits will be strong. We are starting at ground zero again."

One third of the group's performance is being hidden from the market under "it's for sale" subterfuge. Do you think that it is proper way to run a business?

Great response in 2 & 3 Hexam. Simple, clear, on-point.

The pumpers won't accept a single word of it.

Denial is a powerful thing.

PLT sold yet? No?

Wonder why not...

Thanks Coasty. I realise that I possess sort of an antihero status in the minds of tradey and his cohort, but at the end of the day I'm just another trapped shareholder who bought for a quick flip and ended up in investing Vietnam. Some on here revel in their analytical prowess, looking at page visits, run rates, etc., but it is all for no benefit whatsoever. Nothing - and I mean nothing - has been done right by the management in the past five years. Well, apart from remuneration and self-enrichment.

"And there he goes again, just proving my point with his Tradey fantasy and fetish lol."

Come off it tradey. Your squirming and deflection is blatant. You are the banned user Trading4good. Your demeaning, berating, overbearing attitude is exactly the same as under your old ID. Same location too. Just like Trading4good, you have an uncanny ability to alienate everyone, even including those who agreed with you. No fantasy about it.

Bfdinvestor = Trading4good

Why you aren't brave enough to come clean about it is beyond me.

"Little trader, bon Scott isn't here for any form of actual debate

His only intention is to post his lies and fetishes to disrupt the board."

Isn't that rich... coming from a notorious board bully whose MO consists entirely of shouting down other users and hurling abuse.

Interestingly, tradey is completely unable to answer any questions put to him at any time. Not a single coherent answer to any question put to him by Coasty, myself or Oceanpassage.

All the hallmarks of a fool who went in large at 400p, now sits 95% down on his investment, and blames everyone else for what went wrong.

"No mate, u go to the url and guess the page number. I started at page numbrr 300 then 350.. etc process of elimination...actually took me less than 5 mins. Reading 20k posts isnt something i am commited to do."

Thankfully, there aren't 20k posts to trawl through, like there are with the BdfInvestor/Trading4good double alias.

Fascinating.

When viewing a user's historical posts, one will note that there are 20 posts per page. For a user with 9k-10k posts, consistently made acxross time, one would have to trawl through some 400-odd pages to get back to 2021. This is before factoring in the reading of said posts.

Ten minutes, eh? 😉

"What is the reason for all the lies, can you see the turnaround coming

Have you looked at December web stats? "

A turnaround would be most welcome, so I can get out of this heap. You'll be stuck for quite a while longer, regrettably.

I bet the web stats are amazing. Shame it doesn't mean profits. But keep clinging to your clicks and follow-through rates if it makes you happy.

Tell me: why do you think the management has hidden reporting on a third of the business under the "for sale" guise?

"If he gets the sp in to three digits I doubt anybody here now will still be invested at £3"

What about yourself tradey? Only a 75% loss for you if we get back to triple digits.

"I say good luck to Dan, cant say they are not ambitious. There is a buss again around Debenhams."

But not the profits. Nor the share price.

Yeah tradey, bang to rights, it's all to disrupt the enrichment incentives.

"Bon Scott.....Look at the date..The RNS's are 12th December. No further sells from Frasers since then!!"

Well aware of that, thank-you. Considering that these two RNSs follow an initial tranche disposal, I'd be inclined to call that a continuation. And as for the main point which seems to have been dodged, they would appear to have been sold at a loss versus Frasers' estimated average holding price of 30-35p. Cheers.

Going by yesterday's RNS, Frasers are continuing to offload at what appears to be below cost price. Not a good sign.

"I did buy 100K of these at 21p, watched them fall to 20p,

Sold at 23p, then watch it climb to 25p

Looks like we are re tracing

I think I’ll rinse & repeat"

The plod on here bought a high six figures' worth of these at 400p and watched it fall to 10p, blaming everything and everyone else along the way.

"As mentioned several times southcoast/Hexam, if you believe the business has reported incorrect information take it up with them. "

It would do to practice what one preaches, and savage the FCA for all these years of market maker "manipulation".
