Does anyone know this company? It was highlighted in this weekend's paper and I wonder if it is about to fall a lot more ( eg with the prospect of a Rights Issue, etc), and that might be a good time to get in - when they have some cash.

Are they beholden to Supermarkets, I wonder - could this mean they have little "pricing-power"? - That's something that any go-go business needs, perhaps along with a USP - although this is hardly likley in the "food" industry, is it?

Just closed 75% here - will look to add on any retracement.

Well done skinny...think continue to hold and see what happens... all looking good ..think this'll go higher if good numbers/ sales start coming out...imho

Thanks - I maybe have been a bit too keen - although I still have a a holding and will add on any retracement.

Having said that, I've had 3 decent trades on these since October, so shouldn't complain.

just keep's on going up.

Hot off the press (unfortunately I'm not holding atm).

Annual Report and Accounts, notice of AGM and Share Consolidation

Premier Foods, home to some of Britain's best loved brands, today announces that the Company's 2012 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') will be held at 10.00 am on Thursday, 3 May 2012 at the Holiday Inn - Bloomsbury, Coram Street, London, WC1N 1HT.

The Company also announces today the publication of its Annual Report and Accounts 2011. This follows the announcement on 19 March 2012 of Premier's results for the year ended 31 December 2011.

Copies of the Annual Report and Accounts 2011 and Notice of AGM are available to view or download from the Company's website, www.premierfoods.co.uk/investors/, and have been submitted to the UK Listing Authority's National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.hemscott.com/nsm.do.

The resolutions to be proposed at the Company's AGM include a share consolidation pursuant to which 10 existing ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company (the 'Existing Ordinary Shares') then in issue would be consolidated into a single ordinary share of 10 pence each (the 'New Ordinary Shares').

If agreed, the proposed consolidation is expected to reduce the volatility of the Company's share price as well as reducing its administrative costs.

As of today, the Company has an issued ordinary share capital of GBP23,980,582 divided into 2,398,058,228 Existing Ordinary Shares. Following the proposed consolidation, and assuming no further issues of Existing Ordinary Shares, the issued ordinary share capital would remain unchanged but would comprise 239,805,823 New Ordinary Shares.
