The markets did not like this report.

B&O shares have dropped from 85kr to 70.5kr since Monday.

Better off putting money in Apples.

Got the Apples covered! Hope they don't ripen prematurely.

Just like Forrest Gump. "Fruit company".

Here you are fellow Apple fans :)

Most considerate of you to those of us who prefer B&O and Apple, and feel a bit abandoned by B&O which insists on mostly ignoring Apple users.

Must stop drinking at work!

Hate when this happens. In the middle of the typing I get one post for ever word in the post.

I was looking forward to my 888th post, missed that one.

Trying to get your post count up again, Daniel!?

Sorry, strange postings!

I've seen plenty of doubles, but... did you let your pet octopus click on "post"?

Or maybe, not increasing the prices.

Have you seen the other threads? Can you imagine how people would flip out if there was a cost increase on BL9, and they bought it, and then they found out it was made in CZ and not DK? There would be riots. Or whatever angry rich people do =)

My point is that instead of keeping the production in Denmark with an price increase to be able to get a profit they moved the production to the Chech Republic to get a profit with remaing price level.

Well, being an industry is a lot more than selling stuff. Apparently result of the cost reductions that were announced ages ago.

Like moving the production of half their stuff to the Czech Republic, not telling anyone, and not reducing the prices at all?

You didn't miss much as most of the questions were avoided by 3 people who were way out of their comfort zone!

Yeah, it was a bit funny at times

But not all of the questions were that great, either. Like the last guy going on an on about a figure on the report that he couldn't understand... what are the chances of an actual error in a financial report? Or the other one demaning info on Christmas sales when they obviously cannot and won't comment on that for a report ending on November. The time spent on these could've been used for something interesting.

Sound quality was excellent, though!

Apparently there will be a webcast in 20 minutes.

From the B&O web site ...

To see the webcast your computer has to support the Windows Media 9 file format.
Information on how to install and test Windows Media Player 9.

Why oh why not use something that is useable by non-Windows people ? And here I include all the Linux etc people of the world !
