zscrooge - uniq not into iron sandwiches yet - try British Rail !!.
Comment from advfn uniq site - M and S now provides Uniq with 54% of its business - quite happy to be in that basket !

Yep almoore seen the thread -fine once you've waded through the sad aliases :-)

Dont know about sad aliases - hoping for 50p by April/May. - imho.

Well said alan.

Er let's see, I'm in now so that pension deficit not a problem and er, those broker reports, nah it's going to 50p, no make that 100p by end next week....
pathetic.

Oops - did we not get in at 25p - Q4 trading results due very soon. I stick by 50p by April/May but your 100p by next week could be pushing it a bit. Interesting comment in the daily mail last week - Uniq looking like a bid target !
By the way they were 46p only 7 weeks ago and Q4 is their most profitable period.

Well said alan.

M@S results tomorrow should give us a big boost.

Loads err money.

BROKER CALL:Jefferies sees value in food retailers
6 January, 2010 09:03:13 AM


The food retail team over at Jefferies International have issued a note highlighting the attractiveness of the sector. The broker points out that sector valuations remain undemanding adding that expectations are high for strong food inflation in 2010. Within the sector the broker keeps a Buy rating on WM Morrison and a 320p price target, a Hold rating and 340p price target on J Sainsbury though cuts Tesco to Hold from Buy lifting the price target to 440p from 420p following recent share outperformance.

LOL Al, you are way off target. I've been in Uniq since 6p and you keep missing the the irony -do I have to resort to putting on stupid smileys to underline it?

LOL goldfinger -back in now so time to cut n paste anything in sight in the hope it will influence anybody. What about the pension deficit and those bad broker notes -suppose those will come back when the sp might get a bit frothy. Pathetic and easily outed on adv*n.

Awaiting trading update - consensus view on advfn site based on last five years dates is :-
Friday 8th
Monday 11th
Friday 15th

Its official- Trading update Tuesday 19th January.
also:-
Completion of sale of Netherlands business.

Furher to the announcements made on 18th dec 09 and 5th jan 10, Uniq announces that today it has completed the sale of its Netherlands Business Units to Glide Equity Management (GEM) Benelux, for a total enterprise value of 20.0 million euros (18.0 million).

Hey zscroogey, I was in Uniq at 3.8p and informed the big wigs on the motley fool site and put them in.

Like I said before I trade for a living and yes if this becomes overvalued I will short it again.

LOL, outed on adv&n, are you sure?????????????????????????????????????.

lets get this right now who called the SP corrrect at 25p and which mug followed his leader rainmaker into thinking it was worth 120p/140p in the summer.

I dread to think just how much you lot have cost some poor souls.

At last some of the TA indicators are turning positive after weeks of total nagative readings.

Im my mind this is a very bullish signal and comes from a well respected USA TA site......

No doubt we will have the cynics amongst us who talk of tea leaves etc, etc, but time and time again these indicators turn out excelent results.

I expect the indicators to turn up even more from here please remember this is just the base.

Would a kind person like to post this across the road please.

From the statement this morning......

the pro-forma position as at 26 December 2009 shows a cash surplus of GBP26m. Under the agreement we have with the pension trustee we expect to place approximately GBP40m in a separate account...... ends

we need further clarification from the management because If ive read this right and a lot of erlier birds seem to have got the same impression with the early sells.........

THIS IMPLIES A FUTURE NET DEBT POSITION OF 14m.

Sold my holding mid week, last week. I wasnt going to hang around for any blotches like this. Yet again the pension problem is clouding the picture here.

Not sure wether to go back short again.

If the management are meeting analysts maybe this point will be sorted out.

A deal to supply sandwiches to Marks & Spencer was among the activity that helped convenience food group Uniq return to sales growth in the fourth quarter. Sales grew by 4% in the 13 weeks to 26 December. In the desserts division, sales were up by 0.4% as a strategic plan took effect, helped by a good performance at Christmas. The 'Food to Go' division saw sales climb by 11.5%. Strong sales of sandwiches to M&S were partly offset by the decision of an airline supplied by Uniq to reduce food services on short haul flights. 'The improvement evident in the final two quarters of 2009 is encouraging and is expected to continue into 2010 despite the tough market environment, although the first 3 weeks of 2010 have naturally been adversely affected by the weather,' said Uniq.

Had a trading long on UNIQ, coming up to results... last year were on the 11th of March and company is returning to profitability. should have a RNS anytime now to inform when results are to be published.
