Share Price This hasn't been performing very well recently - any reasons anybody?
My Pipe Dream ... that all today's sales are investigated by the LSE!!Not happy that the company is making this announcement after hours; should have been made at 7am this morning.As per usual, city insiders will probably be able to get away scot free!!

Re: Norway, Sweden, Iceland Andy - Correct.These Scandinavia countries franchises are nothing to do with DPP.As you say DPP is a separate Domino's company operating in Poland, listed in London.This week Domino's Pizza Group (DOM) announced expansion of their Norway business by integrating the established Norwegian Dolly Dimple's business into their operations in Norway.In the past there has been speculation that DOM may take over DPP, however this remains pure speculation....As an aside DOM took a peak 15% drop down hit this week - after publishing excellent results, but some brokers talked down the stock due to slower growth figures. I took advantage of this drop by selling some DPP at 53.5 and buying DOM at 333.3 since this share is pretty flat at the moment.Have investments in DOM, DPP, JE and FRAN which have all made me money - DYOR.SJI
Re: Norway, Sweden, Iceland Hi, It was my understanding that DP Poland only had the master franchise to operate in Poland. So what have Norway, Sweden and Iceland got to do with it ?? Thanks
I think what may have disappointed the market is the lack of any mention around EBITDA performance, particularly of the oldest stores. If you look at previous trading statements there has typically been a mention. Hopefully, there is nothing sinister behind the omission and management are simply saving the detail for the full year results. Also, let's not forget the massive recent run up in the share price. DPP's market cap is now approaching £80m or roughly £2m per store. That is not far off DOM UK with its £1.8bn+ valuation and 850+ (cash generating, high EBITDA) store estate. Now I know that DPP has a far superior growth profile, which goes a long to explain the difference. But I suspect that until the market sees news around continued EBITDA ramp up and (above all) details around the timing of cash-flow break-even, the share price may struggle to progress further in the short term. I say all this as someone who has held the stock since it was below 20p, has no intention of selling and is a massive LT bull on the company
Re: Wow Was thinking the same - great number but up 4%?[link]
Wow Have I missed something?PP/news/item/2262588/update-store-performance?context=LSEPPUp" target="blank" rel="nofollow">[link] but 3%Regards,Seadoc
Expansion Just checked the location section on their website and they now have 35 stores in 11cities - looking forward to the company update in early February - hopefully should be a good one.
Re: Norway, Sweden, Iceland I read somewhere that the first Swedish store has opened up this New Year. So expansion grows apace. 19 stores in Iceland? The whole population is only about the size of Nottingham. Lot of money in Iceland though.
Re: Great News An interview with Peter Shaw, CEO on Proactive Investor.[link]
Re: Great News Yes, the placing price is very encouraging athough, in terms of financial performance, this is still a jam (or should I say tomato topping) tomorrow situation. I originally invested a small amount at less than half the current price because the basic business model was proven and all the numbers were moving in the right direction and I think the modern Polish culture is quite entrepreneurial. I expect to be a long term holder, but it is early days yet.
Great News Great news from the company.[link] month ago the company were talking about 29 stores with 4 to open. Now with this new cash (and shares) it's another 20 stores, with the talk of 100 by 2020.One hour into trading and a half million shares traded, and up 17%. It seems folks want to hang onto the shares they have, and others want in, so up goes the price.I'm in for the long term.~John~
Re: Results Agreed. Very strong numbers. No following from broker community right now. They are getting close to break even and are not burning much cash. 2017 looks like the inflection year after which earnings should accelerate. Very exciting opportunity. Look back at dominos uk from its early days to see the enormous potential. This is valued at a tiny fraction of that.
