Long term it will bounce back. I've taken the opportunity this evening to reflect on the level of pain shareholders who bought recently must be feeling so as my views of ATM have already been clearly articulated out of respect for holders there's no need for me to comment any further until we see what their interim result looks like in early 2021.
Beagle says it is expensive based on no growth this year so sp may fall. But then will it be cheap based on some growth the year after? So confusing valueing shares.
Markets attempt to value companies & shares based upon long term projections.
There are investors who do invest with that long term horizon but the overwhelming number of market players focus on short term developments & news.
Therein lies the volatilities, risks and opportunities.
Very true.
When viewing the current SP blip some posters forget that long term holders have had over 8 years of compounding SP appreciation at around 100% pa.
8 years (or so) of compounding 100% pa gives holders a huge buffer to weather any storms. Going forward, even if that return falls to 50% or 25%, the compounding effect will still yield a much higher av return than the NZX50 (IMHO)
For new holders at current SP's the picture is more tough (but again long term holders have had periods of similar drama throughout their holding.) This hiccup will pass. Uncertainty is 'Business as Usual' for investors.
The long term picture is;
- ATM provides high margin returns in a very basic needed commodity segment (food/drink/nutrition)
- ATM is outperforming its competitors and has a proven value proposition
- The Daigou distribution channel may be suffering in the short term, but it was by nature opportunistic and is rapidly being replaced better - Channels ie 5000 new Mother and Baby stores in China.
- ATM is well diversified internationally
- ATM is still sitting on a huge cash fund
- CEO Geoff has a long record of 'under promising' and 'over delivering'
- The biggest possible negative IMHO is possible difficulties with the incoming new CEO. Shorters will play this to the max and weak hands will lose.
Well said Beagle.
Let's all sit back and let this play out. (FWIW I'm much more concerned about the unknowns of the USA election)
GLH and DYOR.

Don't make promises you can't deliver on now Beagle ;)
This place wouldn't be what it is without counter viewpoints, whether dedicated holders want to hear them or not. I'm back on the board with this stock in a very small way, but I'm not intending to hide under a rock, block out the noise and pretend everything is just swell and that I'll double my money in 12 months. Comments like yours feed into my decision process to help me determine if I invest (or speculate, as the case may be), at what entry point and to what extent. Keep them coming.
It is proven the shake and coup of the shares. Insto's and shorters. As I mentioned before The Insto's invest alots of money and ATM doesn't give a divident, this is how they make money.
