Do you guys really think Titan Premier Investments Pty Ltd (Wiese company) would buy 132 mil shares at about R2.40 in September waiting for bad news from PwC report?
Wiese has said it clear, that: "Steinhoff is not smoke and mirrors", that there's real business instruments in Steinhoff".
And that's why they're doing mistakes and unable to know or predict what to expect, especially that they're doing this restructuring for the first time, and that's why they've hired experts to help them, while some business like Madoff's didn't do any mistake, because he didn't have any underlying business.
As for the liquidity, Steinhoff is mainly a retail group, and that's why they always need loads of liquidity to keep bumping their show rooms with items to sell, their yearly revenue is about than 13 billion euros which is more than many other retailer groups.
As for the debt, this year most of companies, especially the American companies have taken a record number loans amounts, although Steinhoff have a relatively high amount of debt, but there are many companies that have higher.
As for the court cases, Steinhoff (owned by the shareholders is a victim), and those who may have committed any wrong doing have done it absolutely without Steinhoff NV consent, and Steihoff will open cases against them in order to recover any money due.
