Executive or indep?

Sitting there to draw another high pay? Angry

To put in perspective, she is good at retail, so... ya, we all know she's not well versed in trains engineering... Tongue

FY16 (ending 31Mar16) full-year result is due in the next 2 weeks, so it is timely to revisit the 3Q result.....

Even though the general retail scene is not rosy, THG as probably still most profitable local retail enterprise and one of the largest specialist watch retailer groups in Asia-Pac, has rarely disappointed in the recent years. I also look forward to another good final dividend (last FY15: $0.022/share).

Hourglass inventory has been going up for the past few years. This year revenue dipped but inventory is still up. Net cash from Ops is not growing with profit as a result.  ROE is also slipping due to the asset heavy Inventory. Inventory growth is up 68% since FY11 but revenue is only up 36%. If this trend persist, it could indicate a big imbalance of power between watch supplier and watch retailers. I wonder if the retailer need to buy to fulfill certain quota? Or certain volumn to get higher rebates?

Cortina also released Q4 & full yr results.

In summary,

PAT $8 m (down 45%)
Dividends 2 cts Exclamation

(Edit - Quite bad compared to THG).  But dividends same as declared by THG. Huh
