    Very quiet - hope to get the ball rolling - here is a review by comsec for those who havent read it

    Tassal Group Limited
    Last traded: $1.61 Sector: Consumer Staples Market cap: $163M
    Buy Price target: $2.60
    Summary of previous report dated 23/0210
    A question of fixed cost leverage
    TGR reported a disappointing 1H10 result (NPAT down 11.8%) based on higher costs (feed and Superior
    Gold import costs), tight export margins and increasing retail rebates. A 4cps dividend was declared.
    We have reduced our FY10 forecasts in line with the lower 1H10 result but left future years forecasts
    largely unchanged. We have increased our net debt to $91.2m (up $20m) and removed our assumption
    around three years of underwritten DRPs (now assume 2H10 only). Our new DCF valuation and price
    target is $2.60 per share (down 5.5%).
    TGR well positioned to expand its margins
    While the increased cost of finished goods and retail expenses surprised on the upside in 1H10, it was
    clear before the result that 1H10 would be a difficult earnings period. Over the long term TGR is well
    positioned to expand its margins through the benefit supplying Superior Gold and the increased fish
    biomass from the new hatchery. Domestic salmon volume growth continues to show no signs of abating.
    In light of the long-term positive outlook and the steep discount to market (9.1x FY10 EPS, 57% discount)
    that TGR is currently trading on, we retain our Buy recommendation.
