Agreed. I cancelled my licence fee back at the start of the pandemic and bought £157 worth of PFD shares. A far better investment !

Congratulations to the bbc on finding some bad vaccine news. They never miss an opportunity to bash the government and the country.

Yes, so do I......but not a day I want to see again in a while. Hope for better tomorrow

Is going on ?

Apart from the Hovis debacle

For our share of the Hovis equity.....that’s outrageous.
Does that mean Gores only got the same for their share ? They must have made a loss on the deal.
What happened to the “ £100m bidding war” !!

Try LGEN
Superb divi and still well below their pre covid peak.

-2.8% when the market is through the roof.
Has someone had a sneak preview of the results ?

Spending it is my answer to that conundrum......but I am 71 and maybe not long for this material world !!

PFD SP stood at 19.32p on the 19th March this year !!
By and standards that’s a remarkable turnaround

3 Card.....that’s a great idea !
I go back to the days when they paid a very generous dividend. Just after the IPO

I am sure that we will get the interims next Tuesday. If they were going to delay, they would have said so by now. I am expecting a decent set of results given the big sales boost caused by lockdowns.
I would be surprised by a bid by ABF. Not only have they got their hands full with Primark, but up until today the competition guys would have had something to say because of premiers part ownership of Hovis and ABF’s ownership of Kingsmill
The perceived wisdom has always been that potential suitors have been put off by the high debt level and the pension deficit. However because both of those problems are well on the way to being solved.....who knows.....maybe a bid ?

I think that the loans were made to Hovis by Premier, not the other way around. I had expected our share to be around £50m plus loans payed back by Hovis.
I have written to Richard Godden asking for more explanation of the £37m.
Maybe we will get some more clarity on Tuesday......but I guess at the end of the day £37m is better than nowt.

Were we not hoping for a tad more than that ?

I like the sound of that !!!

Sounds like good news.....the market certainly thinks so !

Today. Hopefully leading up to some good news next week.

The more stringent the lockdowns the better it is for PFD.....so why do we just follow the market down ?

Assume that we are treading water until nov 10th.
You are right.....a bit of news on the Hovis front would be good. It’s a while since we heard anything. Hope the deal hasn’t gone tits up.

Maybe do some research on PFD we long term holders reckon there is still some upside despite massive rises so far this year.
