Same and I couldn't agree more. The paper was 01.303 if my memory serves me correctly.

Well looks like lock down not now being called for entire north island by WPA.
HLG stores in the north island wont have to close nor any other retail.
But its certainly starting to sound a bit panicky with local politicians get vocal.
Why we discussionarising Wage Subsidies in this tread again ? ;)
New guy in NSW seems pretty gung ho and looks like Sydney might open soon ...even though health experts are aghast at his plan saying hundreds could die every week
Just get the shops open and leave them open here and in Aussie please
Else no dividend by Christmas I fare
W69, I presume you are being tongue in cheek with your comment about no divi by Christmas.
Goodness knows what this means — The Directors consider it prudent to defer the declaration of the final dividend until Auckland and the Australian states of NSW and VIC have come out of their respective lockdowns and retail stores can trade again.
Be a bugger if lock downs continue longer than expected
case numbers dropping in Florida..
vaccination works it appears.
shops open by xmas if the caught off guard with their pants down ANZ gets jabbed.
"caught off guard with their pants down"
"SMUG NZ"
ceo exporter comment, NZ Herald.
Shops open in NSW tomorrow ...... after having their hair down it will off to Glassons to get a new frock and top to start the new life in style
If only Melbourne and Auckland could follow suit
HLG's Australian exposure is shaping up as a real bonus in 2022.
Growth there has been very strong in recent years and despite extended lockdowns in NSW and Vic remained so in FY21 which was very impressive !
Its hard to say what the prognosis is with any near term dividend, I am focused on the medium term reopening trade.
I maintain a hold rating and fair value of $7.
I reckon ‘business’ driving govt policy now and Auckland will go to Step 2 tomorrow ……PM can’t go back on her veiled promises of last Monday ……and shops will reopen.
All looking good for HLG
Only need to get Victoria open now.
