Zappa 0 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Given that RIFC accounts were submitted last year, it's very strange (and suspicious) that RFCL's accounts weren't also submitted around the same time. Given that most of RIFC's consolidated trading takes place in RFCL, the RFCL accounts must have been almost there, if not completed. The main conclusion I can make is that there's something in these accounts that the directors don't want us to see. Somers has apparently been telling concerned fans who've been asking about the RFCL accounts for a while now that the delay was because it had been decided it made sense to release them at the same time as the interim accounts for RIFC. I think we can expect whatever they've perhaps been trying to hide to be well and truly hidden in details that are as clear as mud... again. Millions upon millions will be attributed to anonymous and mysterious one-off costs... again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they think it makes sense to release full year accounts to 30th June 2013 at the same time as half year accounts to 31/12/13? Makes no sense to me. Accounts still don't appear to have been registered at Companies House. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense to me. I can't remember the exact wording, but email replies from Somers to bean counters who've been asking him about it for a while were posted elsewhere. It's not that he said delaying the accounts made sense, it's that last month he was telling people making inquiries about the delay in releasing the RFCL accounts, that they would be released along with the RIFC interim results. As I say though, I can't remember the exact wording. I'll maybe try to find the posts containing emails later on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 As I said before sommers claims Deloitte told them to release both at once. If true and I doubt it is it seems highly questionable advice. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXXXXXX Deloitte are advising that we file these and issue the interims on the same date. So we are likely to accept their advice.

Unnecessary dig ... for on the other hand you want them cutting cost by laying off staff. You can't have it both ways, you know? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
