Re: DOM, SP BROKER UPGRADE.......... <b>Domino’s Pizza delivers with German dealTakeaway pizza chain Domino’s Pizza (DOM) has acquired Joey’s Pizza, the largest pizza delivery operator in Germany.</b><b><i>Numis analyst Douglas Jack retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of £12.00 on the shares, which rose 2.2% to 990p yesterday.‘Domino’s Pizza UK has formed a strategic joint venture with [Australian group] Domino’s Pizza Enterprises, which is to acquire Joey’s Pizza. The joint venture will be one-third owned by DOM and two-thirds by Domino’s Pizza Enterprises, who have an excellent track record in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Holland, Belgium and France,’ he said.‘In addition to the 5.4% average profit before tax upgrade we are making today, we believe these transactions should materially increase the probability of success in Germany.’Jack added that the transaction ‘makes strategic sense, creating the leading pizza delivery business in Germany’.‘It can leverage pan-European buying power, utilise Domino’s Pizza Enterprises’ regional infrastructure expertise, and remove a potential distraction for the UK management team. Our forecast upgrade also reflects the opening of 55 stores in the UK in 2015, ahead of previous guidance and forecasts of 50 stores.’</i></b>[link]

RNS re-Germany business Interesting way for DOM to get out of the business in Germany ?-----Strategic joint venture between Domino's Pizza Group and Domino's Pizza Enterprises in respect of German operations and acquisition of Joey's Pizza, the leading pizza delivery business in Germany.-----Not sure how the market will re-act to this in the short term......

Q3 Trading Statement - DOM breaks £10 ... Wow ... excellent Q3 trading statement today enabling the sp to reach the £10 barrier.Very pleased to see that my prediction of reaching this level has come earlier than expected.Will be some profit taking to knock us back in the coming weeks, but long term DOM is a great investment. Get aboard on any sign of weakness of this volatile share."Outlook - Given the strong performance of the business in the third quarter and a solid start to the fourth quarter, the Board expects full year results to be ahead of its expectations."Good to see improved performances outside the UK & Ireland - Keep eating the Pizzas.

Nice rise after Interim Results... DOM have maintained the growth in UK and cut losses in Germany....Another set of excellent Interim Results today-----Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Officer David Wild, said:"We've had a strong first half, driven by an excellent performance in our core UK business, which has again recorded double digit like-for-like sales growth. Our international operations have also shown improvements compared to last year.Our success in the UK is a result of the investment we have made in market-leading e-commerce initiatives. Our App has now been downloaded over 10 million times and our App sales have overtaken desktop sales for the first time.The 21 new stores opened in the period are performing better than ever. Our roll out is well supported by our franchisees, who are benefiting from increased profitability and are seeing a good reaction from the UK consumer to our bundle deals and other initiatives.Whilst we are pleased with our performance in the first half, we face tougher comparators in the rest of the year. We have a continued programme of e-commerce initiatives and other marketing campaigns. The UK new store pipeline is solid and we are well-positioned for the future."-----OMMy" target="blank" rel="nofollow">[link] outlook for £10 a share by the end of 2016 looks achievable, along with the usual volatility continuing to enable short termers to make money too...

One of the most successful AIM companies... Last week saw AIM's 20th anniversary. DOM features in iii's review of some of the AIM companies that have hit the big time....See : [link] was floated at 50p a share at the end of 1999 and at the IPO, my wife and I managed to get a grands worth of shares each.----- Pizza firm takes some toppingDomino's Pizza, which is the UK and Ireland master franchise holder of the pizza brand, has made tender offers to shareholders and paid a total of 98p a share in dividends. Although the original flotation price was 50p, the true adjusted flotation price is 15.625p, which is less than the 17.5p paid in dividends for 2014. Domino's Pizza is one of the most successful AIM companies of all time when it comes to share price performance. Ignoring the contribution from dividends, the current share price is nearly 50 times the flotation price.This provides an indication of the cash generative abilities of Domino's Pizza now that it has grown to a significant size. The company has also acquired the master franchises in Germany, Switzerland and Luxembourg. There were 894 stores in operation at the end of 2014, up from 190 when it joined AIM and 501 by the time that the company moved to the Main Market.Since 1999, underlying pre-tax profit has increased from £1.8 million to £54.8 million - and it would be higher without having to absorb an operating loss of £8.36 million from Germany and Switzerland.Domino's Pizza's performance contrasts with AIM-quoted DP Poland, which is still cash hungry and needing to raise money because of the immature nature of the Polish franchise operation. It will take time for DP Poland to be a significant cash generator.-----We have been lucky with this one but unfortunately have also invested in many of 'The Dogs of AIM' over the years. (Currently one of the dogs beings XEL).Continued GLTA holders here.

Re: One of my biggest regrets Nice rise today....but.....Will there be a repeat of 2013 this year. The big rise today could trigger profit taking sells followed by a drop back to the low 700's ?The mopeds outside my local DOM Franchise seem to be parked up more often than previous occasions I have passed by.....Come to think of it we need to get more use of these DOM Mopeds.I will suggest to the Board that they make better use of the Pizza Delivery moped assets when not in use. How about using them when idle for an on-line small parcel collection and delivery service for on-line sellers like Amazon, M&S and eBay for example ? Parcels can be dropped off at Domino's then once you are back home you schedule delivery or collection of your parcel - also enabling a drag along sale of a pizza and more free advertising with the delivery guys buzzing commuters as usual...I will email the Board via Investor Relations...

Re: One of my biggest regrets ...was not selling when the sp reached 708p in 2013, after which I had to wait almost two years for a recovery from a subsequent 250p fall. I have bought in and in and sold out with half of my stock holding several times since my initial purchase back in 2000 (when it was on AIM) anticipating regressions with some (limited) success.

Re: One of my biggest regrets You should have no regrets - having traded and made a few quid in a short time, I assume you used the profit here to trade another stock.Agreed DOM can be a very volatile share, but overall the trend is upward. Over the years have seen many people drop in, make some money and move on..I'm an investor in this one, having bought at the IPO @ 50p, with paper certficate shares, which makes it more difficult and expensive to trade, Have held, traveled the roller coaster, and been fortunate to see DOM hit its all time high this week. Turning £1500 into £25K with some nice dividends along the way over 15 years or so..My target is £10 in 3-4 years, depending on how quickly Germany adds extra sausage to their pizzas to make them more acceptable over there.GL to both Traders & Investors......
