I am so not a 2021 Superdry customer but I really back Julian Dunkerton

2021-01-19 11:40:28

I last wrote about clothing name Superdry (SDRY) back in September here, concluding that returned CEO and historic founder Julian Dunkerton was someone to back. Back then the shares were about 132p and despite inevitable challenges in its big plans, even with today’s share price fall you still have a share ahead of 210p (i.e. down over 10% on the day). So still a value company or is today’s £173 million market cap now too much?

Superdry – with no profits it can only be a 'back the man' story

2020-09-21 10:15:00

It seems a bit crazy to be talking about a financial year ended on 25th April 2020, two-thirds of the way through September, but such is the pandemic's impact on conventional financial calendars. Listening to the Superdry (SDRY) conference call this morning after a 'year of considerable change' – no surprise with the share, already massively down in recent years, compressing a further 73% year-to-date and today has an EV of less than £100 million. Well this is what happens when in the year to near the end of April you made losses and had a 19.2% fall in revenue, which massively outweighs the big squeeze which delivered a higher net cash figure...

Struggles with my man crush at Superdry

2020-01-10 12:00:57

Lots and lots of Christmas trading thoughts out in the last few days but I have got to comment on Superdry (SDRY), a stock which I described a month or so ago at the time of its last trading update as having an 'encouraging early start to Q3 peak trading with strongest online Black Friday day ever', but naturally everything still has caution attached to it given the changeable retail backdrop (and that)...the post-Christmas trading update will be insightful but for choice I am still backing the man'…

Reading 'At home with Superdry’s Julian Dunkerton and Jade Holland Cooper' (so you don't have to)

2019-05-27 18:15:18

I wrote an article back in March  bout the importance of the pareto principle in business and that 'i trust the views and instincts of founders/co-founders inherently much more than chairman with historic general experience but massively less skin in the game'.  Since that article - which was primarily centred on boohoo (BOO) shares in the online fashion company have done rather well, showing that the co-founder's focus and elbows out manner has been very helpful for shareholders. But what about the other company mentioned in that article, Superdry (SDRY)?

Tom mentioned clothing retailer Superdry (SDRY) in a bearcast just under a week ago  and highlighted the recent profits warning, which was based on warm weather hitting sales of fleeces and the like.  The shares are down at five plus year lows and this is starting to have an impact...on the rhetoric from one of the founders.  I was amused to read in an article in the deadwood press earlier today that:
