If this is true, those unsold flour in last quarter should become an inventory for next quarter, and that should not be a big problem since the flour has a big market.<br /><br />Otherwise, why the investor worry that flour market currently saturated in this region? I cannot believe such an established company like MFlour has something technically wrong with their operation. Isn't that all flour mills run with the same pattern?Jollybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158721638769386082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29462482.post-15283937407627282712012-05-22T12:05:22.334+08:002012-05-22T12:05:22.334+08:00Hi Jollybee,
The Investopedia article is correct....Hi Jollybee,<br /><br />The Investopedia article is correct. However, it does not necessarily mean that if you pay out a dividend that is higher than your current year earning, your earning would drop. The only way that a higher dividend may impact earning is when a company borrowed to pay out the dividend and this borrowings resulted in interest expense which reduced the earning.Alex Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08920196030603399063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29462482.post-72402495789260005192012-05-22T11:51:31.543+08:002012-05-22T11:51:31.543+08:00Hi JY,

This is especially true when we are dealing with an old company like MFlour.Alex Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08920196030603399063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29462482.post-43338101395222099122012-05-18T19:52:46.914+08:002012-05-18T19:52:46.914+08:00I would not think that MFlour made a loss by havin...I would not think that MFlour made a loss by having a minus EPS.<br /><br />The 62 cents special dividend just distributed last month, may have caused this quarter EPS negative.<br /><br />This happened to Maxis before when it announced a 20 cents special dividend for that quarter.<br /><br />http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/08/dividend-exceed-eps.aspJollybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158721638769386082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29462482.post-33695079120335525222012-05-18T14:31:36.834+08:002012-05-18T14:31:36.834+08:00Hi Alex

MFLOUR has had so many corporate exercise which adjusted its share price in 2011 into negatives.<br /><br />Would you agree that only chart from Apr'11 onwards matters as anything before that is negative. You can't use fibonacci to connect the low prior to Apr'11.<br /><br />In other words, Mflour only has approx 52 weeks data hence it would not be meaningful to refer to 2000 or 2008 data? How should we go about reading such chart?JYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12448698021846720114noreply@blogger.com
