Sales were up 5.2% to $5.6bn in the first quarter of 2000, with food and liquor sales up 7.4% and Myer/Grace Brothers suffering a 2.4% decline – reflective of the retail climate. The company will probably make a share buyback once it completes a $700m issue of 6.5% convertible pref shares (called ReCAPS) to better manage its capital base, one reason the shares are up 12.6% since issue 65 (Accumulate - $6.83). ACCUMULATE.
