(Sharecast News) - Two of clothing retailer Superdry's top executives, including its co-founder Julian Dunkerton, picked up some shares on Thursday.
And in the case of the latter it was not his first purchase in under a week.
Non-executive director Peter Williams purchased 50,000 shares in the company for a total transaction amount of £72,045.6.
Buying shares alongside him was Dunkerton who added a further 148,177 shares to hi stake for £207,447.8.
Their purchases came just three days after the company reported a wider annual loss, warning that Covid-19 had disrupted its revival plan and that its bank covenants could come under pressure.
Yet the day after the company's full-year results, broker Liberum reiterated its 'buy' stance on the shares.
The broker said the full-year numbers were "as good as could be expected considering the Covid-19 impact".
Liberum also said that while the headlines will no doubt focus on the size of the impairments and write-offs, which were larger than it expected but "all very sensible" considering the outlook and the need to reshape the cost base.
It went on to note that Superdry's cash was currently around £50m and that with new banking facilities, liquidity was not an issue.
On the same day that Liberum issued its note, Dunkerton picked up another 154,809 ordinary shares for £214,425.95.
The day before, on 21 September, Dunkerton had bought still more shares, worth £1,149,745.16.
