Quote from: "roaldbergmann"Can anyone scan their AP-card? It would be so cool to see what´s it like (I'm actually considering being a shareholder member only to have this card in my wallet :-) ... that is if it's gorgous enough)...

They show you the card on the Shareholder web site.

Click on Discounts and privileges.  The card is the first image.  It is nice to be able to show it off in the Disney Store in the UK and get your 10% discount to boot!

For anyone thinking of buying, the shares are currently trading at around the bottom end of their range in the last 12 months - about €7 each.

And falling! I look at buying some every few years, but this time it could be the right time.

The new shares are quoted in euros, is that right? So, I worked out yesterday that for 20 new shares it would cost €137 - it could pay for itself very quickly.

If you think about the Discount card you could definately get your money back in one trip. We saved on food alone the value of our card.
Plus reading the small print about the Half board vouchers. It says you can save UP TO 15% with the vouchers. But as a share holder you WILL save 15% on food and drink.

BUT...
We went into a shop and bought a bottle of coke and some kinder egg style sweets. which you can't get discount off NON Disney products.

Well I'm now the latest member of the shareholders club.

I bought 20 new shares first thing this morning through www.selftrade.co.uk for EUR7.01 per share - and within 20 minutes the value had dropped back to yesterday's lows - I missed the deadline by 3 minutes. Oh well. These things go up and down.

So, total cost including GBP12.50 trade commission was GBP123 - it could have been less but I'm pretty happy with it.

Hmm, I've just re-read the benefits and it's 15% on food and drink ONLY at table service/buffet restaurants in the park and in the village.

I was hoping it was counter service too, and I was sure that omission was something I'd have picked up on before  :(

Its time to buy. Currently trading at below €5, even below yesterday years low. The price is well over half the price earlier in the year.

According to a Financial section in the Sunday Papers, Euro Disney and due to announce their first profit in 5 years this week. Turnover is said to have risen from 930 Million to 1 billion.
The article said that last year they had a debt of 32 Million, this year it is said to be a profit of 8 million.

Obviously this is all speculative, but from what we know as Disney Fans, is it now time to buy the shares?

I believe tomorrow is the day that the results are made public.
And actually...I wouldn't be surprised if they actually indeed did very well the past year! If there will be a profit is still to see, but I sure hope so.
No touchy!
