They offered payment to Hank to get litigation off the books. They referred to is a as pest payment or something. Deal wasn't done so they are forced to continue with court case. If there was big numbers to be made from successful litigation from Hank and you are not spending much time
or energy and have good evidence it hardly seems they way to go?
So after saying they are on a winner with the court case it is now a case that they are happy to pay Hank to get rid of it and that didn't work.
Now if they think that the overhang of a court case is the reason the shares are at lows they need to think again about all the targets they have missed as the real reason.
Yes Bud more delays and the roll out in Australia is a weird one as you pay for a bus wrap for a short period and in the route that it runs you do no or little promotion or ensure stores along the route all have stock??? How the hell do you measure your impact metrics and value of advertising ? That and you have done it on basically a tourist route .
Stocking in Australia. So with bag fulls of cash sitting in the accounts and storage in warehouses in Aus costing stuff all you would reckon at distributors in the big picture, if there really is a shortage ( doubts) , why wouldn't YOW consign a extra container to each distribution area to guarantee never a shortage . Shortages on introduction is a dead set way to constrain impact and growth with today market that has a attention span of 2 minutes.
If they were going to use Aus introduction as a model for seamless release and growth potential to prove to the UK that worth introduction.
Contacts telling me that kinder has got eyeline top shelf space on planograms in major retailers and unusually doing more specials and promotion than previously seen. Might be cyclical or to try and keep market position.
