Not sure why THG are still sitting on all this cash at year end 2025....?

"Highly liquid balance sheet with over £330m of cash and available facilities at year end."

Thought they were supposed to use the cash to pay of the loan???????? You don't think our glorious leader is going to pocket some of that cash somehow????

JAO ADYOR 😳

I'LL Try again... Why haven't they mentioned the substantially reduced gearing since the Claremont Ingredients disposal? Net debt down to just £210 million. How much cash are ThG now sitting on? They mentioned it in the May rating but not this one unless I've missed it?...It's still very positive for THG anyway! JAO Adyor 😳

Not sure why THG are sittingbonnso much cash, Thought they were going to use all the cash from Claremont sale etc to pay down the loans? They have £150 million Revolving Credit Facility so why sit on all that cash..? Net debt down to about £210 million... so why keep the €445 loan going in full? JAO Adyor 😳

😆...yes I have Been blocked by others with an agenda to prevent facts being discussed in full... and don't forget...... this is a " HIGHLY PROFITABLE CASH GENERATIVE BUSINESS CAPABLE of PAYING DIVIDENDS 😉 👌 😆 🤣 But now with a upgraded Fitch Rating!

Great Find.. hopefully Fitch will have a positive effect to counter MM's incoherent waffle!

An Interesting perspective, but why give an Analyst Meeting in order to deliberately sabotage the outstanding trading update a few hours earlier! The CEO has done the same thing on every previous occasion with the same small group of brokers, most being about 18 years old! Why isn't the Chairman present to add more perspective to these meetings considering his alleged 40 years experience!!! JAO Adyor 😳

I would suggest that private investors bombard investor relations with emails in order to answer these questions, including why the CEO, it seems, is personally sabotaging the Share Price with ill-conceived statements relating to profitability, considering what he stated previously during the demerger separation of Ingenuity. JAO.

OSG.....there is no requirement for an analyst call on trading updates seeing as others don't bother! ....The CEO has proven on every occasion that he personally turns a positive trading update into a disastrous interview, it does appear deliberate and calculated in order to lower the SP? Why doesn't the Chairman attend these meetings 🤔. If the Interview hadn't occurred the SP was rising on the published information to 52p and may have consolidated even higher that week...Confusing that THG's best ever trading period turned sour all on the CEO's ill-conceived rambling thoughts. JAO Adyor 😳

No 5 is interesting.."(5) Overseeing communications with shareholders"..

No mention of the CEO using LinkedIn as the main method of communication to shareholders and the City? 🤔🤔

"Governance

Maintaining appropriate standards of corporate governance is essential to the good management of the business. The Board is responsible for ensuring that THG lives up to these standards, and monitors our policies to ensure that they are appropriate for the nature, status, size and circumstances of our company."

The Board is primarily responsible for enhancing shareholder's interests.

It does this by:

(1) Setting the strategy and direction of the Company

(2) Approving or recommending changes to THG’s structure and capital

(3) Approving and overseeing financial reporting and controls

(4) Approving material agreements to be entered into by the Company

(5) Overseeing communications with shareholders

(6) Taking responsibility for risk assessment and internal controls

(7) Overseeing THG’s overall corporate governance arrangements..

Obviously no one at THG has read these for a while? 😆 🤣 😂 JAO Adyor 😳

....I think it was written by the late Mr Maxwell? 🤔

@ Nortel..how can you possibly accuse THG of appalling corporate governance coupled with management incompetence?.

Haven't you read on the THG Investor website, they have a World Class Leadership and Governance Code of Practice? 😆 🤣 😂

Look on the bright side, the C@# Artist otherwise known as the CEO is still 5p a share up on his 200 million Convertible Loan shares!!!! 😊 Every Cloud has a silver lining ✨️ JAO Adyor 😳

When you appear to have a CEO that is Controlling the Chairman and BOD to line their own pockets what do you expect 🤔 JAO Adyor 😳 . So much for a Leadership and Governance Code?
