Well,it looks as if MR.HART has done the deal re his dairy company $700 million coming his way,with MIGUEL the philipine business man who is in the run for the foodland business in Australia....he may even look at BPC...as it fits into his business empire...BPC...is now ,due to the merger with GOODMANFIELDER the largest food manufacturer with turnover of $3.5 billion and profits of $400 million...my prediction are bearing fruit...or Mr Hart..will buy more of his stock as the company is going from strenth to strength..depending how it pans out my feeling is the stock will appreciate sooner than later..as buying should start in this stock, its a defensive stock if the market came back...I am invested in this company and holding 100k shares....my target $1.50......any comments

I've been slack with my shares in both trading/forums/other research lately - glad someone's on the ball! Nice updates.

Definitely still a stock to watch, will be great to see how it all plays out.

Re: Burns philp....BPC

At present prices good buying opportunity...this one will go higher..good cashflow...largest foodmanufacturer...could become a takeovertarget as SH price too cheap....
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

WARREN, their cash assets per share is 69cents...if it goes down to what you say I SHALL be buying heaps..read the article again..and you find they are making profits...going forward..they are a big group...and will do well in the future..UNCLE TOBY UP..OILS & margarines up...profit up from $3.8 million to $29.6 million they say it will be the same as last year..well they had to get rid of a lot of DEADWOOD...and by the end of the year the picture will look much more healthy....Management are satisfied with their results....as the group will even produce for inhouse brands....but not at GIVEAWAY prices..be assured MR Hart is NO FOOL..he allready proofed that :2twocents
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Warren, the brokers are trying to sell it down but ample support here..11 million so far....if Mr Watson..starts buying who is a Billionaire and also shareholder of this group between Mr Hart and Mr Watson..they have the $$$ to buy the group and at 66 cents...well you dream because of those two they would buy every share they could lay hands on..thats why I doubt your prediction...now there are about 5 different articles on the results...and you know they all say something different...I know a little bit more about the CEO..and he is a tough coocy believe it...As far as cash...and results read what SP said....its positive...they have the capacity to produce the goods...only a group such as this will get the order from WOOLWORTHS...or COLES for that matters as their range is tremendous..AustraliaNS LARGEST food manufacturer; :2twocents
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Glad someone else has a positive take on the news/article.

Several other articles tell a similar story, but aren't as grim.

HeraldSun

The Australian (down the bottom)

But check this out, see what you make of it
UBS on Burns Philp

More reading, I know - but it's good to take every piece of news here/in the paper with a grain of salt...if not a different paper altogether :2twocents

Well, BPC was 0.560 a year ago :rolleyes:
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

So what ,I was a year younger as well...everything changes what the price was a year ago means B all....see what UBS said there price is $1.07 target...what I said is so...Mr.Watson who lives in London has pi9les of money so has Mr Hart...both are very wealthy induviduals....and are buddies...from way back...as I said 66c...just a dream... :2twocents

Well, BPC was 0.560 a year ago :rolleyes:

Warren, you may not have done your homework....BPC owed $2.5 billion when the share price was that low...they repayed $1.8 Billion reducing their debt to $700 million ,their earning ,I meant profit after restructuring this year will be in the order of $110 million which could be much higher than this as per their statement....next year they estimate their earnings,I meant profit to be over $200 million climeming to $ 400 million....as this company is now effectively the old Goodmanfielder operation which as I said before is Australians largest food manufacturing company...after all the Chairman Mr Hart who revitalised this company owns 51%..something in the order of 1.2 billion shares..Mr Hart has proved to the investors ,he is one tough negotiator..BPC would have gone down the gurgler had it not been for him...I have seen him operate and he has got my support he is one tough boss but tops in what he does..And his close friend is Mr Watson also a Billionaire in his own right so between these two they can buy the show and these are the facts...I mean you saw the brokers trying to sell the shares down today...well the support was there and in fact they increased by 1.5 cents...Who bought the shares.???..I am sure we will see further support in this stock as they are now looking of equireing more food producing companies..and there gearing has now come down to a very aceptible level which before was not the case...and that is the reason the stock is supported...In fact they could pay all debts within the next two years but that would be to coservative...so they are looking for companies to buy to grow further.......and I have every confidence in Mr Hart and company...after all he knows how to make money..one of the best I ever saw he proved it when he bought BPC 8 years ago
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Shorts on the ASX have nearly disappeared....so traders must feel stock will rise...UBS...has a big BUY, Maquarie has a big buy....looking at $1.07 :2twocents
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Chicken - since early March this stock has been going down.

Looking at the charts this trend looks like it could continue - possibly down to 60c.

To say that its going to $1.07 seems very hopeful.

For your sake I hope I'm wrong.
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Read what I said..Dutchie there is hugh support and also the shorts have gone from 6million shares to 2 millon...if they thought 60c was possible would they closed their position...no ,they think we have reached the bottom...its now a different situation...they reduced their debt to a commercial reality...and its not me who says $1.07...but UBS,Maquarie, and some of the other advisers...but we can all dream...
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

watching closely, & still holding bpc

appreciate the commentary as always chicken, hoping to see it hit 1.00+ too. tidy profit for those who got in early ;)
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Isn't it annoying to see a share not doing what it is told!
Doesn't it read the posts? Maybe its looking at its chart instead.
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Read what I said to Warren...thats why the stock will not go down further...Do your research before you make statements such as these...in fact I heared they may even list back in NZ...which is a good idea...as Goodmann Fielder came from NZ...Food manufacturing in a scale as theirs costs a lot of money to establish...after all their sales are OVER $2.5 billion...
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

There are 7 articles written about this subject and everyone has a different opinion on the subject when you read it again in fact the figures are quite good at least they are profitable..and will so in future because of their operation...super funds are buying... :2twocents
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

Now 90c...risen by 2 cents...and intrest returning to this stock...April was a months were the market went down even the fundsmanagers said that they had a negative return...should brighten up for the time being....back to $1 plus.... :2twocents
 
Re: Burns philp....BPC

I just noticed ALL THE SHORTS HAVE GONE only stock where the shortsells have disapeared...something is up...price should be going north...waiting for more news.....see ASX shortsells
