Generating plenty of cash and growing strongly off a large base. On a PE of 32. Corona might knock them around in the next 12 months. Long-term very positive. Good US traction too
Well Aussies know Bull very well....on HC
"Kiwi down rampers out in force over here;c'mon you aussies,lets get the SP heading in the right direction today...up,up and away...
I think 'Bull' is their Leon !!"

A very good and pleasing result, just a shame about the Trolls.
Investor's update -- late 2019: "'For 1H20, we anticipate revenue in the range of $780 million to $800 million with growth demonstrating strong performance against strategy. EBITDA margin % in 1H20 is expected to be in the range of 31-32%.'"
Today's Interim report: "Revenue -- $806.7 million."
So, just to clarify - not a miss. Unless exceeding expectations qualifies as a miss.
It all sounds pretty good to me. As for the Corona virus, that is across the board for a lot of companies. Looking forward to meeting "bull" at the next sharetrader or shareholder meeting:).
Great result.....I'm a happy long term holder. USA going great!!
Suspect that with SML and some USA/Aust/NZ producers available at discounted/distressed prices this is a good exercise.
A2 might stick to strategic stakes rather than full acquisitions. However I much prefer their capital light strategy.
Thoughts on the results from a serious investor with a $1000 holding in a2:
Revenue looks solid. Profit is abit concerning (can anyone tell me why A2 tends to grow revenue in more in h1 and profit more in h2)?
Assuming professional service fees are consulting (20m)? Marketing expenses seem high compared to the same period for 2019, however still lower then H2 2019. Possible GB clamped down on both these?
Balance sheet looks as juicy as ever. Imo wasn't expecting any announcement on the 600m in the piggy bank, doubt we will hear anything untill we get a new CEO.
USA - Growth is good but would be good to see a reduction in the losses.
Won't be buying anymore at the present unless we get a nice big dip, but PE of around 30 isn't excessive at all. Can't see the SP going crazy anytime soon though.
