Through my rose coloured glasses, the positives I see are:

• this is the third consecutive half where they will post positive net earnings


• if we see a decent second half, they could better the previous year's net earnings of $931,326


• they are spending money trying to get more revenue (hopefully they succeed!)

They had already mentioned the "one-off advance marketing rebate which had the effect of increasing first-half revenue and earnings last year" so this isn't that much of a surprise.

Granted, the revenue drop being greater than expected is bad... but the fact that there were buyers waiting to pounce on the "news" as an opportunity to accumulate is encouraging.
