Lifeway Foods Inc (LWAY) News

No surprise that Lifeway's Q3 earnings were strong.
No surprise that the drama continues ....
Danone submits a NEW (higher ) bid for LWAY at $ 27.00 / share.
Meanwhile, LWAY has already implemented a new shareholder rights plan ( aka , poison pill ).
( Maybe NESTLE [market cap $230 Billion] will surprise everyone with a $30 / share bid ! $ ) j/k
GLTA

Interesting to see LWAY decline DANONE'S acquisition offer of $ 25.00 per share.
LWAY Q3 earnings ( 11/14) looks like a pivot point (?)
Meanwhile, LIFEWAY'S founding family seems to be in conflict about the future of their successful company.
( 5 years ago, LWAY was $2.00 / share. )
Lifeway's premium products and premium shelf-space are definitely very valuable ! $
GLTA💰️💲

Danone ( market cap $ 47 Billion ) makes a bid for Lifeway ( market cap ~ $ 400 M )
at $ 25.00 per LWAY share ! $
Stay tuned for Lifeway's response ....

Now trading at $3/ share.

Looks like a LOT of people decided to not own this stock. Good job CEO--way to screw up your company's stock price by tweeting your personal views!!

I sold every share I owned.. Boy am I glad she gave guidance.

LOVE TRUMP sell you stock.. OK..

Looks like a lot of people took her up on her offer.

Just awful.

Talk about nepotism

Anyone out there know why this is going on a mini-run the past couple days?

I do. It's a long term hold for me (on a very small position).

Coming back to the curve. Still have a position here?

I have no position here. I saw they filed the K today because the share price drop triggered an alert. Nominal top line growth.

Not intimate with this company but I think the main headwinds are the below-average management (family-owned) and competition from "faux kefirs" because no one is really sure what the hell a kefir is. It's not explicitly defined.

Kinda sits in a weird nexus, too. Milk consumption is down but yogurt is up. Makes getting a read on growth a bit tricky.

GT's put out a Coco Kefir (via an acquisition) a few weeks back, and if track history is any guide, they'll roll LWAY. A rising tide could raise all ships but I'm not inclined to wait around on this stock without overt trend data.

I took a small position based on your comparison to CELH. 2016 was disappointing, but at least it's profitable, with a decent balance sheet. Hopefully it will grow over time.

Anyone out there lurking, following this stock? Expected a rebound before now.

Oh well I don't own it anymore, my post with the charts was last year.

I'm not really interested in how political types express themselves making their own weather so to speak etc...

To me it would be like hearing about how two people argued on a housewife talk show or soap opera during the day. Or how there was an argument with some customer at the returns desk at the store mart or something. Or in the evening people talking at the cops on the show or something. Perhaps even like trolls on boards flaming away.

Charts are gonna move regardless if it has a political backdrop or not...

The CEO of $LWAY, Julie Smolyansky, Told Trump Supporters to Sell Their Stock; Wall Street Obliged
Dr. Fly Sat Nov 12, 2016 12:59pm EST 17 Comments views3480

I’ve never seen people so unhinged. I did expect the heroin addicts in Portland to go crazy, but I never thought I’d read about a CEO telling shareholders to sell their stock, if they supported a Presidential candidate that didn’t mesh with her version of the world.

Ever since Election Day, shares of LWAY have been spiraling lower. On the 11th, CEO Julie Smolyansky, tweeted this nonsense.

"Hey shareholders if you a rape apologist, sexist, racist, demagogue, bigot, feel free to no longer own shares"

Apparently, given the selloff from nearly $18.00 to currently 10.80 a share, many shareholders accepted her invitation!

Good work, CEO Smolyansky!

Been a fan of their kefir for years. Invested last month and now things are heating up! "Invest in what you like", I say!

I think the bottom is in here around $9-$9.30.

hey LIFEWAY, you guys need to market your kefir more, the grocery stores i've been in don't know anything about it. Still looking for that water based kefir, too. When i'm looking, near the yogurt area, i sometimes tell people about the Kefir. One lady decided to try it. You're welcomed. ; ) she'll probably tell two people who will tell two people and so forth and so on.

Guessing the ad during that awards show didn't help too much. People likely to drink kefir are not likely to watch that type of programming. Just a thought. Maybe advertise on some nature/outdoor/healthful shows. We don't like to watch over-inflated egos all puffed up.

You're welcomed, again.

Great little flipping stock...

This type of kefir is fantastic. The raspberry and the pomegranate flavs are delish.

Supposedly more healthful than yogurt.

Still looking for the non-milk kefir (water kefir), but can't seem to find it at the regulary grocery stores. Can't wait to try that type.

Well done, Mark.

Built up a position over the last few weeks. I had to build slowly so as not to spike the price. It is one problem with thinly traded stocks.

I drink this stuff several times a week - love it.

Also I wish I had bought this stock at the beginning of the year! :)

Great Stuff our refrig is constantly stocked with Kefir!
