Nosh was a basket case too and from discussions with those in the M&A industry, no one would touch them.

I didn't say I buy from them...its because of MB, the prices are reasonable, otherwise supermarkets etc would be charging higher prices if no competition

The Chart suggests the 7th November acquisitions announcement resulting in a knee jerk upward swing was a good time for some powerful players to get out.
Since then, we had a 1/2 yr announcement which included these new acquisitions effecting the forecast and Mr Market has and continues to show it's displeasure to VIL

"I'm extremely disappointed with the share price performance because it's not driven off any good fundamentals. A lot of the reason the share price has come back has been stories in the NBR and that type of thing." - Acting chairman Tim Cook
Most of those things have been said here on Sharetrader
Shareholders of VIL should be proud of their company defending themselves this. The shareholders should not be worried as long as VIL keep screwing the franchises they will be doing OK. Three bates and othe allowances keep rolling in,even if the poor operator has to sell meat at loss.
All risk with the operators - VIL just take their cut - shareholders win.
As long as most of the stores survive it's all honky dory.

Even more ugly is the exChairman selling shares after stating that he was a buyer! He did buy 5,000 shares in 2015 to show his confidence but sold 122,500 shares. He also mentioned a share buyback in Nov 2014 AGM as shares were undervalued. Have to take careful note of this type of directors and management behavior. Contrast with THL and SCL where directors and management simply buy and let their buying speak for themselves.

Second half dividend 1.066 cps down over 60% from the interim at 2.7cps, even though they added a cash generating business. Prudent or short of cash ? More analysis when the Annual Report is out, me thinks to see what the drag is.

Its now a very highly leveraged business earning less money that before. People should take note of Balance's post #239 above and draw their own conclusions about that sort of director behaviour.

Obviously wasnt paying attention but they seemed to pay an awful lot for hose bars
And $40m debt seems horrendous
Note the Mad Butcher stores they own (classified as assets for sale) lost money ....wonder how they convince a butcher to borrow heaps and buy his own personal store
