The answer tongue in cheek is simple. If her speech is that bad, everybody goes to the pub to get totally p...........d, Seriously i do not see any risk to the big boys in this industry GNK and MARS, have it stitched up, as there offers and products are first class.The only downer is the bloody minimum wage.
Just reading the industry leisure tracker figures.It shows the industry is streets ahead of last year.Drinking out is up 16% year on year, and eating out 7%, i believe Marstons along with Greene King will surge in 2017, especially with the great dividends, and if you check the local pub restaurants, they have the market stitched up between them.
No,its final ex divi date today, always drops on this day. Could be interesting year ahead as the big companies look for buying opportunities.This company has been way undervalued for years in my opinion, however successive governments don't help with the continued min wage hikes.
Interesting article in the trade paper yesterday.Morning Advertiser. Marstons on the acquisitions trail, and partnerships. Also rebranding their bottle beers to appeal to todays younger markets. Great divi here, share price way over sold
been in here since .90p,and plenty more to come. One in 4 premium bottle beers sold is now a Marstons product,and today the new bootle plant opened. Market expected to keep growing at 10% per year and with new plant there are great savings on cost,and plenty of outside contracts to win.Combine this with there 25 new pubs a year opening,well work it out for yourselves.
Nice article in the Morning Advertiser (trade paper),explaining how Spirit have turned around the leased division and expect continued success.With this mild winter and World Cup this summer,we should see this continue to rise and reach its true potential.
Punch was hived off from the Spirit pub co,they are all the old style pubs with not much hope of survival in this day and age.Mainly sub-let to holding companies who pay managers absolute peanuts to run them.Spirit now have all the high end managed pubs and top quality brands.Having been in the trade 25 years,i would stake good money that punch puba asre going nowhere fast.There are other good pub shares to try....MARS,ETI,GNK.
Well i have said this before.There is no rhyme or reason for this share to be this low.They have not issued any profit warnings,they operate world wide,and are very strong in Asia.They have not lost any contracts. Neither Peter Jones or Collie etc are going to ruin their reputations by letting this plc go under. We may well have to wait to year end 2014,but i srtongly believe this will come good,and we will reap some very big rewards.
i am sure going to top up my holding on this one.Peter jones and his group surely have some tie up in mind. Although there was no trading update as such,my gut feeling is something is going to blow this one sky high soon. My average should be down to 1p by tomorow.
Oh weel looks like another 8 months just plodding along,unless they win another few contracts. Cannot believe a company with so many excellent directors are taking so long to turn this company around. Will stick it out for next 12months.My average is 1.40
well next week sees full year results,anyone got any thoughts on how much increase we will get,or increase on divi. Its been a nice rise the last few months from the mid 90s to a steady £1.24. My guess is it will be very encouraging,and over the next few years as the debt is paid down then its a nice steady rise.This is my long term hold,i have seen good progress and i am confident on the future.
Hi,to all those still here with patience. The announcement of the Everything Everywhere contract,sometime ago,would anyone like to hazard a guess as to what this might be worth.It looks like this is all we have to go on at the moment. Desperate for good news to get this share noticed.
I am heavily into this share at an average of 1.45 and i would like someone to answer this question. The director buys are all at a much higher price than at current,why then at this steal of a price are they not filling their boots?Is it because something big is about to be announced and they are not allowed to buy with the news/rns due at anytime.The end of year figures were excellent,the new iphone is out,and they have won new contracts,and yet the sp is languishing near an alltime low.Any observations?
