Well this truly is a vote of confidence indeed. The debt credit was very necessary and by very necessary I mean, this debtor/ investor has helped carry Jubes from 3p ish to 13p ish in quick smart time. Growth had to funded, Jubes was struggling at the time and had to get funding however. Putting this into context , Jubes has gone from loss making to an expected operational profit of circa £80M this year in quick smart time with a massive bump up expected next year and this could not be achieved in that time frame on thin air! This debt has played a massive part here and has helped Jubes establish itself and lay the foundation for massive future growth. If we could do it again with hindsight, would I slow it down and wait years and years- no! This transformation is going to see a rerate and very soon. This lender/ investor is starting to cash in their chips as no doubt per their game plan ready for their new investment vehicles! In exchange we have new blue chip investors who are ready to assist in the next leg of Jubes journey (13p- £1 plus), it’s out with the old and upward and onward with the new! The good news here, Jubes has transformed and as Leon has gone to great pains to tell us many times recently Jubes is now in a position to obtain clean credit, a great position to be in. The butterfly is just escaping it’s cocoon. Jubes is arriving! On top of this transformation we have just read a monster 6 month report promising lots of new future growth in lots of exciting places!! The future is here, lots of growth now materialising in profits, lots of growth planned and under construction. Lots of growth between the lines in the 6 monthly and all over the world. Leon is so excited about this, he can’t help but hint already. It’s all coming, it’s coming to us! Profits, more profits and continual growth. Jubes has it all. Did I like the debt when we took it on-no, am I now grateful for the debt- yes!. Has it set us on route to be a multi billion dollar global company- undoubtably in my opinion.
