Ann: Half Yearly Report and Accounts, page-31

"They sneaked it in minutes before the close on the last day of reporting season. You don't normally do that kind of thing unless you are trying to bury bad news!"

"Yeah it looks like the modus operandi here; bleat loudly about anything positive and bury anything not so."

Good evening @CheapRobot and@flotsam222.

So that we are all on the same page, and for the benefit of us having an informed discourse, based on TRUTH (and nothing but the truth), I am providing a bit of what I can find - viz a viz, your comments (both of you).

a) From what I have noticed, Clarity producing these reports on the last reporting day seems to be the norm rather than otherwise. As shown on the table below, 12 out of 14 were exactly on the last day. The 2 that were early, were on a Friday, with the deadline date looking like it was a Saturday or Sunday. I was gonna recheck this Saturday/Sunday thing, but I don't think it changes anything). Suffice to say that this suggests to me that the reports have always been on the last day I am happy to be corrected. If this is correct, it would imply that what you presented @CheapRobot is FALSE!

b) Flotsam: You responded by calling it 'modus operandi here'! Again, if what is on this table is correct, it would imply that what you said is FALSE!

c) Again to you Flotsam: You say that Clarity "... bleat loudly about anything positive and bury anything not so..." Would you care to share what negatives you are referring to?

As shown - I seem to agree with you @Hingdog.

Apologies if there are errors on this table. I checked this as much as I could, but its too many reports to go through. I value the TRUTH, but at some point - you geo to let things go, I told myself.

I have no desire to misinform! And please note: this is not investment advise!

Good Luck To You All!
