IMO I'm not sure these guys have got 2 brass razoos to rub together or could borrow them and how bad would mgt at YOW be to let it happen to such a low level operator? Not close to the same situation as Merchant and IMO disaster / con that was 1p g original business.
Be very aware that there will have been other accumulators who may choose to "help" these guys and other who will have run for the hills seeing them on the register IMO.
Only way out of this for shareholders and funds are to have sales sucess going forward IMO. IMO I don't think the funds have the nous and ability to get value by closing this down at these values and cash at bank.
The weird bit is that the WLW expansion in OZ comes with long lead times would have been exported and known before well some announcements and they chose not to say it earlier for commercial reasons? nor say Canada numbers? and price was decimated. How bad is USA numbers.
Say 500 stores, initial stocking order 2 box, selling a box a week after a month with 2 month production and delivery restock and you have a million yowie order just to stock warehouse. Same in re Exp of stock in WLW is July 19?
Do some promotion and see if you can engage with customer.?? . Looking like a classic case of let all the fear carry through and blame old management and then get the kudos for rebuild and improvement and exceed a couple of low forecasts. If they drop the ball or haven't cleared out all bad news or have left themselves open to class action or burn a few mill on US court cases it is going to be a basket case no one will give the time to and a shell worth stuff all..
Being serious YOW should commit significant funds so there isn't the cash attraction to predators and it could hardly turn out worse for current small holders as the only value in this business is some IP, branding , trademarks all of which require a operating business to hold value and then there is the cash.
What harm to small holders could come from engaging buyers in existing markets and spending $ completing introducing packaging options for webshops and following through with duty free supported by clips, books aisle stands and a decent social media engagement etc as most hard yards and core expenditure already done ?
Other option is to sit on hands, spend less, no innovation and hand to predators who will IMO suck it dry for near zero $ return to small holders.
So try and build a business or fail . It all assumes there is a viable business case without snouts in the trough? ,
