The Sallys Beauty Saga Continues
.
.
What more can befall poor Sallys Beauty Supply?
It all started in January with my article Regis and Sallys Beauty Supply, in which the whole mess got started with proposed marriage between Sally and Regis. Then in April Sally gave back the ring, Sallys Beauty Supply - Regis deal is off. when everybody found out that Regis didn’t have as fat a wallet as they thought. Then in another April story, Sally Beauty Supply, nobody wants her Sally’s parents announced they were hunting for a new beau for Sally. Finding nobody, they foisted the wounded Sally on the rest of us by selling stock to the public. I am sure glad I did not buy any of the stock (had I known, I probably would have).
“Now Sallys Beauty Supply is a soap opera”
Now comes news that Sallys Beauty Supply is losing the exclusive rights to market the L’Oreal line of hair care products. Looks like the French three piece suits are going to be letting their new offspring The Body Shop in on some of the action. Also it looks like Sally may be having some difficulties with Redken as well as the same press release announces that Sally’s Armstrong-McCall division will be ceasing to distribute Redken products. What this means is that Sally will take a $110 million loss. What a shame, I really do like my local Sallys Beauty Supply. At this point it seems it might be seeing some changes.

You might look more carefully at numbers : the distribution right is worth 110 M$ in revenues for nine months, around 5M$ of net profits. That’s not a shame !
Take care, look at the fundamentals and be greedy when others are fearful. Load the boat and wait 3Y.
Best regards
