not sure why the word p a ki stan is being censored here, major national grid failure - 220million had no power

Nearly 220 million people in ****stan were left without power on Monday after a nationwide grid failure plunged the country into chaos. The local energy ministry said ****stan’s national grid buckled at 7:34 a.m., “causing a widespread breakdown in the power system.” It’s not clear how long the outage will last, though a “limited number of grids” in the capital Islamabad and elsewhere were back online, the ministry later added. It comes as the South Asian country has been dealing with a serious energy crisis that has pushed lawmakers to bring in new rules to reduce ****stan’s energy consumption. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif ordered all government departments to slash their energy use by almost a third earlier this month, and all restaurants and markets across ****stan must now close 10 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., respectively.

Current Trading and Outlook

· Performance in the new financial year has been encouraging.

· Covid-related delays in film production resulted in a reduced slate of film content during 2022. Despite this, the Company was able to exceed trading expectations due to the unique Everyman experience which continues to attract existing and new customers. The Directors expect both the volume and quality of new releases to significantly increase in 2023.

· Due to the above, whilst the Directors are cognisant of the difficult macro-economic environment and consumer backdrop, they continue to have significant confidence in the future.

· The Group remains committed to organic expansion with excellent opportunities available for new sites. The Directors however are taking a more measured approach to new site opening. The Group is opening a new venue in Durham in February 2023, with four further venues expected to open during the year in Salisbury, Northallerton, Plymouth and Marlow.

why do u think they are sells? if those were sells the price would have crashed by now to like 0.1

the problem here is the costs, the admin costs are way too high. They do not seem to run the company with lean costs.

thanks Playful.

Divermike - i think the issue here is one which plagues most aim companies - no real numbers, low cash balance, market not interested, general lack of liquidity in the market , theres been sellers and the market maker have pummelled this down. its a shame as it was a hydrogen play.

Dartron (you autobot you) LOL,. wtf.....anyway so what sort of PRODUCTS can Russel ductile castings make at that weight level?

Dartron - u sounds like a ..what are they called...oh yes a Transformer.

he cant just be selling on the open market, theres no volume, could just be transfers and not sales i think.
