I can't find 'Annual salary £650k', I can find a base salary + cash bonus which adds up to about £25k just shy of that.
The point I made yesterday about the quoted cash payment cannot be verified. I said his renumeration was in cash and shares with more in shares. So, either people here know something that wasn't disclosed, or they're mistaken. If it's the latter then just own up to it, it doesn't change a thing.
Similarly admitting that Retail Investors could not have swung the vote doesn't change anything either.
The things that can change things are:
- Debenhams publishing their Interim Results which show their limited guidance was right, with growth signals.
- Disclosing the cost implications of exiting Burnley
- Selling PLT
Those 3 things if received positively by the market will make all the difference.
Other things that will help:
- Kamanis and/or Kane building up a stake just shy of 30% would also make a difference in perception.
- Fixing all the shady governance and renumeration related issues would help a great deal.
- A buyer emerging, this will have the effect of setting a base point for the short-term.
The Government can help by not making it more expensive to operate in the UK, or at least levelling out the playing field so foreign companies do not have competitive advantages.
