Quarterly cash and profit of YOW

Just though I'd start another thread so the patent one didn't get infected with argument over $ and profit

a financial gain, especially the difference between the amount earned and the amount spent in buying, operating, or producing something.

"I reckon the company is making a profit (current results extrapolated to a full year). We'll see soon."

"I don't think they'd be in the green because they sold their ACC inventory previously and haven't been producing since then so theres five months of lost production and sales. Going forward though, that's a different story and the multiples are there to be definitely turning a profit going forward provided no big hiccups occur."

"here has been no sales lost as they had stock to cover it. They had been building the inventory for some time to allow for the move."


We don't know costs is the simple answer and what costs will be applied against current period.

They have been selling down inventory so have had no production costs for months. That should add to to the bottom line

The other side is they have had massive start up expenses at Madelaine and all the legal wrangling etc
They have had to duplicate all packaging, shippers, cartons, boxes, exp date stickers, foils ,consumables , new molds, new machinery, installation, upfronts , lawyers, new capsules, new toys , duplicate run of yowie toys , sales staff payout and new employees etc. They have had 1.2 mill in bond lodged probably as a bank guaranteeand had a bondsman company lodge but still money they haven't had access to. Not all will be in cash accounts for the quarter , some would be in the last 12 months in preparation and some will be delayed but we should see them in full year accounts.

We don't really know the details of the Madelaine agreement 1 year , 10 year, toll manufacturing, partnership , capital expense share , upfronts , trails , profit share so it is near impossible to have a clue . A couple of quarters down the track after the yearly and we may start to get a clearer picture of just how they are traveling.

On the small volume they are manufacturing and selling at the minute all the ACC costs and then the duplication at Madelaine are like a anchor but as production expands in volume those costs per unit decrease rapidly.

We all know that with accounts and contracts you can choose to kick news down the track a bit or announce it. Now will Yowie put all the costs in the quarterly and actually pay them and get any badish news out of the way or kick the ball down the road. What difference will it make to possible claim on ACC etc etc

Lots of unknowns and very hard to predict quarterly and I hope YOW give decent commentary or price may cop a hiding again if they try anything smart or smug as in the past
