RE:RE:RE:what happened?
RE:RE:RE:what happened?The 17 percent cut to distribution is really sizeable and does leave quite a cushion. Given that the distribution is directly tied to sales (and the royalty is 6 percent of sales), sales would have to just plummet to cause another cut so I think management was fairly prudent. The share price reset quickly to recently yield greater than 10 percent on the REDUCED distribution of $1.05 per year. I think menu prices for most Ontario restaurants got a little high post min wage increases, and this has hurt traffic along with delivery. Adjustments are underway, but this shouldn't take away from the fact that SIR is well run and has been around and thrived for a long time. Locations are quite good , especially in the GTA. With interest rates close to 0%, patient investors should be fine at these levels IMO.
