This is one of the first I got:
Domino's Pizza Group plc (the "Company") announces that on 12 November 2018 it purchased the following number of its ordinary shares for cancellation:
Class of shares
Ordinary shares of 25/48p ("shares")
Number of shares purchased 100,000
Average purchase price paid 283.90 pence per share
Highest purchase price paid 293.50 pence per share
Lowest purchase price paid 277.70 pence per share
...
Amazingly, despite their operating base being in revolt, they are still buying them now:
Domino's Pizza Group plc (the "Company") announces that on 2 January 2019 it purchased the following number of its ordinary shares for cancellation:
Class of shares
Ordinary shares of 25/48p ("shares")
Number of shares purchased 125,000
Average purchase price paid 235.27 pence per share
Highest purchase price paid 237.40 pence per share
Lowest purchase price paid 232.10 pence per share
It looks as if each tranche is about 100k-125k of shares in size. Not that I've really been taking notes (though the appearance of yet another mail alerted me this morning to write).
I also have RNS alerts from BOY (bodycote), NXT (next), MSLH (marshalls) but I don't seem to be receiving buy-back notifications from any of those, despite in the case of the first two: flagging market price and in the case of MSLH good cash flow and EBIT growth.
My conclusion is DOM really is run by a total idiot, all they have is their brand name, and the share-purchases are money very badly spent, i.e. instead of on unifying their infrastructure, rewarding their workers, and hence greasing the wheels of future growth.
Or am I missing something?
