My bad .... I read the 280 v 289 as $ sales ..... instead of store numbers
So 6.5% pa growth is probably more reflective of 'underlying' activity currently
But F23 sales are going to be huge v F22 so all OK
What else you learn from the call
Printable View
What on earth - there are NO analysts on the call. Zero questions.
honestly the NZ & ASX are a joke sometimes.
EDIT: finally some late questions
- they say its tough trading environment but margins are holding up and "Margins are sustainable"
- buyback. SP is undervalued. They will monitor price action but no specific restriction on dollars spent to get the 5%. no restriction on price to pay.
- acquisition. reviewing opportunities. "very active in the space"
- sales. Momentum continuing from last year across all markets.
- Inventory levels will increase over the years but at a lower rate than sales. ROI will improve.
All very good aye. I didnt realise how big Quebec was!! 8m population- wow. As a comparison to NZ.. lots of growth ahead
Buyback - 2 week wait before allowed to start buyback, confirmed 5% is going to be in the 20 million range.
Gross margins - confident of being able to sustain current high gross margin %
Inventory - increase in inventory amount, but as a percentage of turnover it is actually less.
International online rollout - minimal capex and inventory required to support the expansion.
Capex budget: $30m Capex for FY23, mostly going to physcial stores as capex was deffered during last 2 years due to covid.
basically you cant have enough of these....
inflation spoofing ... mean proofing ....
nothing like gold and diamonds in times of inflation.. what if crypto flowers all go wilty wilty and people buy jewels instead....

by rights this announcement should have been a shocker like RBD. They shouldn't be so confident and talking about growth!! Come on they are taking the pi$$ out of the market. its like the sun is setting in the east, everything is backwards.
Growth, buybacks, acquisitions, margins, profit, sales all increasing.
wow what a company!!! happy holder
"Come on they are taking the pi$$ out of the market."
classic !!
every other company is pissing it pants and these guys are drinking champange at the new party HQ and pissing champane over the balcony!!!!

The spives from the Uk are right out of the pits on the london markets....
Interesting questions? its the tone of confidence in a sea of red by comparison to some others.
Spives just classic spives in the business.
They know they are an under valued stock.
orders building ... expect the family to sell down some stock as the buy back goes on.
