Yowie making a come back

Yowie making a come back

Yowie Group (YOW) have taken a beating over the past couple of years with the stock falling a whopping 84%. I have been watching this stock very closely and feel now is a great time to buy some shares in the company if you are comfortable using a small portion of your funds to buy a speculative stock.

For those of you that don’t know or remember, Yowie are the chocolate treat with a limited-edition natural replica animal, or Yowie playmate, inside. Each Yowie playmate comes complete with a Yowie information leaflet, profiling the animal, its habitat, food sources, and threats to the animal and its environment. Each animal’s conservation status is colour coded as critically endangered, endangered, vulnerable, near threatened or not threatened. Yowie playmates are designed to collect, swap and share in order to complete a collection. They are a direct competitor of Kinder Surprise, however, I think the company offers a far superior product.

The stock has taken a huge hit due to a number of factors. The first being sales did not meet some very lofty expectations and the company had problems with its previous manufacturer. The manufacturing issues are now behind them so we can expect the boxes of Yowie’s to be continuously distributed across convenience stores in America and now Australia with the successful re-launch in Australia this year.

The first time I bought my daughter one at my local SPAR (and yes this has become a weekly treat and not for the chocolate, we all sit around waiting in anticipation to see if she has got a Yowie that is not already in her collection) the guy behind the counter was telling me how they were walking out the store and this was even before any marketing dollars had been spent in Australia.

The company has around US$27 million cash in the bank and aims to be cash flow positive in 2018. The Yowie Group is looking to grow sales this financial year by over 55% which would equate to around US$30 million.

Go and buy some Yowie’s for your kids/grandkids and if they like them add the stock to your portfolio. I did and currently own Yowie Group myself.

Tracy & Adrian's knowledge/experience with financial markets, greater global & domestic political/economic impacts & individual companies/stocks is not just unique & refreshing, but also gives great peace of mind. Having a team this capable taking care of your hard earned to help avoid knowable negative impacts, and/or take advantage of opportunities well ahead of time is like nothing I've experienced before. Could not recommend highly enough. Subscribe to Adrian's newsletter too if you want a no B.S. commentary that is unlike the sanitised drivel coming from mainstream financial reporting.

I highly recommend Super Equity to anyone needing assistance or guidance with their Super. Tracy was very thorough and clearly explained how Super works and why she made particular recommendations for us. Her (and the team's) customer service is outstanding with being very personalised, and we look forward to a long working relationship with them.

A huge thanks To Tracy And Adrian from Super Equity for sharing their knowledge on the recent Introduction To The Stock market Course I attended. The course was fabulous and gave a great insight on how the world operates from Share Markets, to Economic Cycles, World Currencies and great tips on how to look for opportunities on how and where to invest based on local news and world events along with overseas markets and indicators. Also thanks again Adrian for the Silver coin for 1st prize as part of the demo share market game we played over the duration of the course. Would thoroughly recommend the Stock Market course as well Tracy and Adrian's knowledge on our own investments. Cheers Charlie

Tracy has been a pleasure to deal with. Found her very approachable and patient. She is very knowledgeable in super funds and I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs more education on how to make their super work for them.

No question is to silly, Tracy is always available for any query you have and gives us the time to explain our portfolio and investments. Receiving the daily morning reports has been helpful to understand and learn the market. We have always highly recommended and will not hesitate to recommend Tracy and team for any and all financial guidance. Thank you Tracy and look forward to your continual support.

Tracy has been an amazing teacher. I have gone from having no idea about what my super was doing and feeling really overwhelmed by the thought of all that it involved, to now being in control and understanding. Through super equity's I have a transparent, easy to understand managed fund. Tracy has even put me into contact with advisors specialised in life insurance and income protection. I cannot thank Tracy enough for empowering me and helping me organise all my affairs. If you need someone patient an knowledgeable to organise your super and investment portfolio, Tracy is the best!!

The service and support received from Super Equity has reached and surpassed all our expectations. Having previous experience with stock brokering firms over an 11 year period has highlighted to me how superior the service and support received from Tracy Askew at Super Equity is. For myself and for my clients. Tracy's in depth fundamental and technical knowledge in all areas of the market reduces many hours of my time in the research needed to be successful and profitable for myself and my clients.
