I also think it might be difficult for the company to agree to any new loan facility whilst the bid situation is in situ and they would need to seek approval from the TakeOver Panel, and from shareholders, but would need to check on that, but would seem logical to me. my views.

Why are people panicking? You know the market makers play games. Why are the idiots here convoluting this forum when they are not invested? You know why. They are here to sow seeds of doubt for the brokers they are working on behalf of to get your shares from you. Every day there's signals for shortage of shares and they are being snapped up. That 100k share sell was snapped up in no time.

Nothing has changed. The bid situation remains in situ until notified otherwise. Dunkerton needed more time so he must have informed the TakeOver Panel why otherwise they would not have granted him an extension of time but would have told him to declare himself out. They have a duty also to protect shareholders.

In the meantime, the company is doing everything it can to shore itself up incase an attractive bid is not presented to them, so they are looking to borrow. The debt is minimal in the whole scheme of things, and they have the IP sales monies coming in. Who do you think would prefer to have the benefit of that money, Superdry Plc or Dunkerton as a private company? do you think SuperDry will bring in a profit next year? with the right people at the helm, and with a paring down of the business, I believe they will, and Dunkerton knows that.

To finish off, I was watching the end of the CF tonight, and then saw The Telegraph write up tonight on the fashions at CF including Jade, Julian and Idris, they were all featured.

If you take notice of the idiots on every forum who are there to prize your shares away from you for a purpose, then what did you buy your shares for in the first place? The market makers will play with the share price, they are no doubt in cahoots with the brokers, and there will almost certainly be plenty of hands ready to take them from you. The brokers will also be loading up and holding shares in readiness for possible news from Dunkerton and then if you sold, you'll be paying a lot more to get them back.

It is your decision, it's your money, but at the moment, Dunkerton has not declared he is out, and the Kellets still hold over 2 mill shares, and Salazar still has his million. Legal & General still hold a nice wedge, as do the recent Pensions Board that bought a million I think it was, and a whole host of other instis and funders as per MorningStar and other updaters.

As I say, it's your decision obviously, and your money, and although the drop isn't pretty, admittedly, I don't think, in my view, this has played out as yet.

dyor, your money, your investment decisions

I said there would be news this week, I didn't specify what news exactly though! If you thought it was going to be a bid, more fool you!

You've had news this week, the Hilco loan matter, what more do you want. I view the Hilco talks as positive, it means the company is still considering a turnaround and not a cva. imo.

No Gaz, I said he would get his extension imo until 2 April, as 29 March is Good Friday, so they will have to extend it to the next working day which will be 2 April, and I said "if not before", but you keep peddling your lies Gaz, everyone has seen through you anyway and is fed up with you to the back teeth and beyond.

Don't forget that the approximate £10million that the company is in talks with Hilco about for 'necessary additional liquidity headroom to help facilitate the implementation of its ongoing turnaround plan and cost reduction programme' plus an additional £10million to 'assist with seasonal working capital peaks' and a six-month extension to the maturity date of its existing facilities with Hilco through to February next year, also on top of a £25million emergency loan facility agreed with Hilco in 2023, which sees Superdry pay an interest rate of 10.5 per cent plus base rate, and the £80million facility with Bantry Bay, means the company would be well funded if it was absolutely necessary to try and turn things around without having to consider a cva, unless that became a very last resort. However, I suspect Dunkerton will pursue his intention to bid come early April, if not before.

my views.

This is what I think JD is waiting for to get out of the way! His extension will be extended by the Panel until 2 April, watch and wait.

Shaun Wills, Chief Finance Officer, steps down at the end of March after the group posted an adjusted pre-tax loss of £25.3million for the six months to 28 October, up from a £13.6million loss last year.

Just to add to that, there is the IP money to come in which effectively wipes out that pre-tax loss mentioned above.

Bacchusll you slate the company left right and centre, yet you still have it marked as a "Hold". You are a total hypocrite.

LWHL they've closed it within minutes. Funnily enough, the writer, named Jimmy, on trading services responded, now didn't we have a Jimini shorting here and causing disruption? I wonder if they might be one and the same! Au revoir IG, you can keep your shorting practices to yourselves, thankfully HL do not loan shares out to shorters full stop.

This by the way appears to be the strategy which his wife has which seems to be gaining success.

if you look at brands such as ettinger, fairfax and favour, barbour, this is where I think he aims to go, its the youngsters and fast turn over of cheap clothing v the late 30s/40/50/60s+ who have the deeper pockets and want the better quality and want to be seen in the better quality - the market has changed and retailers aim to keep customers on board with better quality and deeper pockets = repeat lucrative business - imo.

"He wants to reverse the current strategy of pushing more “fast fashion” through the stores. Rather, he said, Superdry should stick with fewer, core ranges in store and massively increase the designs and varieties (known as SKUs) being sold online.

“Last Christmas we were at a point where we could hit fast fashion online. We were such a strong brand that we could really increase our SKU count. But they [the new management] did the reverse.

“If you put that product online you would expand brand awareness and create excitement online while combining it with the classic store base.”

Reducing the amount of stock changes in shops would mean the company could improve the shopping environment and cut the amount of unsold goods . “My model means less wastage. It is far easier to manage and you have lower stock risk.

“There are too many products in the stores with short shelf life. You shouldn’t try and change it all the time. Get the product right and be confident in it.”"

LWHL I've asked them to close it anyway, I wasn't using it, but they probably lend them out unless you say otherwise. Either way, I'm not using a company who facilitate the shorts to the extent that has been reported here. Infact, I won't support any broker who supports shorting and loans out shares for the purpose.

You've done nothing but post abusively against all my posts all morning, so I have now reported you twice. Enough is enough of your drivel and abuse.

Scotty, I've just proved you wrong yet again, you stated,

"90 posts today, 50% by Toffers" - wrong, in answer to that post, I had posted 25 in total!

You are such an idiot.

Sm66 is that the rns that was replaced? we can't add that in as they removed that the holding was on his behalf.

So dean01 you've all closed your shorts, have you gone long now, although you're not going to admit it no doubt?

I had an account with IG, I've just closed it as I had no idea they loaned shares out to shorts, and I hope anyone else with an IG account will close it also, after the fiasco and the behaviour from the shorts on here, that has been abominable, and IG indirectly participate in it by allowing them to short. Hope IG get caught short so that they haven't got enough shares for the remaining shorts to buy back, at least not without anguish and pain.

Wrong scottie, 25 today inclusive of this one, and half the time answering to your drivel.

Facts

The Kellets increased their holding only recently to 2,046,442 shares being 2.06% and paid between 39.4p and 40.5p for the additional shares.

Also, Salazar is still holding his purchase of 1,000,000 shares being 1% as far as we are aware.

Dunkerton is also holding just short of 27 million shares still.

So they all appear pretty confident still.

AND THOSE ARE ACTUAL FACTS

Slacker "There is no money coming into this share!!" - well alot of us have put money in to this share! Next......!

Deep, just out of interest, did you use 5 years for historicals, and then 5 years for forecasting for your valuations?

Musk, thanks for that input, appreciate it.

You do know about 88E don't you? they have nothing, never have had.
