[00:00.08]Ok, hi everyone.
[00:01.74]I'll make this brief, because I have another meeting to get to,
[00:05.20]but what I have to say is no less important for being short.
[00:09.29]As you know, in our three-year plan we had a target of 20% growth by the end of this year.
[00:16.07]As things stand, we're going to be quite a bit short of that, trading circumstances haven't been easy.
[00:23.07]And unless we do something about it in the next few months,
[00:25.95]the consequences on our share price could be pretty significant.
[00:30.47]The markets are already getting a bit twitchy as you will have read in the financial press.
[00:35.96]It's unrealistic to think that we are going to trade our way out of this.
[00:40.89]All the indications are that the market is going to remain flat for at least the next 12 months.
[00:47.43]So, what I need you to do is to come up with some possible targets for acquisition.
[00:53.16]We're looking for a medium-sized business, reasonably well established in the market.
[00:58.60]It doesn't have to be a toy business, but it must be related.
[01:02.96]In other words in the leisure retail sector, because that is where our expertise is.
[01:08.69]I don't need to tell you your jobs, I know you'll be discreet, but do get on with it, time's not on our side.
[01:16.35]I'll schedule a meeting for a month's time to hear what you've come up with.
