Shandy, agree with what you say. The company's future is heavily dependent on boots. They even stated at the fy18 final results that 0.3m of sales had been pushed into h1 which makes the trading update even less comfortable reading.

Greg, I can't imagine them shouting about skinny tan until its in boots as its off peak uk and I doubt its being pushed hard by superdrug due to imminent expiration of exclusivity.

The hair helmet just makes me question this company even more. Lots of teething problems both for the company and HC. Last year it was stock issues, superdrug orders and HC selling. Hopefully they have learnt from the experience.

Finncap "We forecast FY 2018 UK revenues of c.£10m (vs. £8.6m),which includes
an initial pipeline fill into Boots stores as well as c.10% underlying growth"

Company have said before that they ended their relationship with the main skinny tan retailer in Aus (a discount chain) and no info on whether they have a replacement. From memory weren't aus skinny tan sales £600k last year.

It was apparently reported at the AGM that HC sold shares the second time in order to fund other companies he's involved with.

Greg, you get stick because it comes across that you are on some kind of vendetta against HC. You're unhappy, we get it but no need to post continually about it.

Finncap make no changes to forecast and retain 220p target.

Roots, performance in Boots took up the slack from the DTC issue (which has since moved back to growth)

I see that Robbie Burns, the naked trader, reported yesterday that he has picked up some HAT shares with a view to them heading back up to 300p. I assume his followers have been buying.

Shandy, I thought that about Croasdalelfc. He/she/it seemed to get very bitter with Innovaderma towards the end of their time posting.

Is it not a reaction to the share price performance at B&M today in its interim results? I feel the drop in share price today at B&M was unwarranted and should recover. UPGS could follow.

The share price reaction may have come as a surprise to him. The share price tripled in a matter of weeks in 2017 on substantially less news than roots and Tescos. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he thought this was the best time to sell after the close period and that the value of the news would outweigh that of his sales. That s a big benefit of the doubt given prolong news sale share but one possibility. But just me waffling.

again HC has no duty to keep the share price at a level you are happy with. If you think the share price is depressed because HC has sold then you clearly must think the share is a bargain. Buy some more. Are you too stupid to understand the difference? Maybe ask Shan for some help. That seems to be your usual option.

I feel for Shan, she is probably bored of your irrelevant questions. I would much rather the board focus on hitting the forecasts and running the business than asking why HC sold shares, which he's entitled to do.

Plus HC has no duty with regard to the share price as a director, merely to act in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.

I'm not sure how to post links on here. Being fairly new to Bango I hadn't read its comments on Bitcoin/blockchain before so I thought I'd put the link here in case anyone else had missed it.

This site shows 230,000 shares bought today as against 90,000 shares sold and the share price is 10% down. Any one with more knowledge than me explain why? Are the figures wrong?

This is the bit I read, In addition, the Concert Party, has agreed that, for a further period following the expiry of their lock-up periods (Concert Party Expiry Date) referred to above and expiring on the 12 months following the Concert Party Expiry Date, subject to certain customary exceptions, he or she will not, directly or indirectly, offer, allot, issue, lend, mortgage, assign, charge, pledge, sell or contract to sell, issue or sell options in respect of, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or announce an offering of any Ordinary Shares

The shares transferred by Barry Franks are locked in for 24 months according to the prospectus.

Last day in the FTSE small cap and FTSE all share index.

Management has lost all trust. It's always next year is going to be better. H2 is going to be worse than H1. They've said that. Go into a B&M and see that Goodmans, who are exclusive to B&M, now supply most of the electronic goods. It looks like UP has lost the fight for shelf space. Salter, Up's 2nd biggest brand isn't even listed as a brand at B&M. Their online business is through Amazon.

Are those last two trades? 2.8m shares? Share buy back or a ii trade.

Why rush to update the market when you share price has tanked by over 70%. Just take you time and report at the last date you have to by the regulations. That's the way to inspire confidence!

More interested in knowing if there is going to be an update before the interims. Last year's interims were announced in April. Seems a valid question to me.

I sent an email last week. Yet to receive a response.
