What time will be the report out? expect good results. i was a part time promoter for a brand in one of their store

should be after market today i.e after 5pm

After dinner check sgx website should have results liao. I am expecting FY12 eps of at least 4.6c and a dividend payout of at least 2.3c which is half the earnings, anything better than that would be a bonus for me ^^

Yea. Although the first 3 quarters they don't do very well. But the last 3 months they rallied and exceed expectations. Too bad I'm still a student. Don't have money to buy more. Will grow more in the long term with more subsidiaries earnings and ventures in Malaysia and soon hongkong china

Haha.yea. Currently getting a degree and working part time selling it products earning my own allowance and this is the my first share. Haha

[felixleong]

how was your experience working there? care to share? thanks ^^

[kopitescouser]

Haha. Very good. It's very profitable. The membership creates loyalty. They have a house brand call valore now. Very good margins. Workers are paid very low basic and have to hit sales target to get incentive. It's very well managed

singpost priced already quite high and their mail business is slowling declining
I would prefer challenger as in long term the demand for IT products will still increase

Mr. Loo Leong Thye, the Chief Executive of the Company, said, “As expected, Q4 was
the best quarter for us in 2012. This has somewhat made up for the slow retail sales
noted for the first three quarters of FY2012.”

He further added, “We think 2013 will continue to be tough for retailers, at least for the
first half of the year. However, we will continue to expand our retail space in Singapore
and Malaysia so as to serve and reach out to a wider customer base.”
