No . .they do have 4 analyst that cover the company. Probably need to ask them. Maybe Paul Senior knows because I do not know.

Even if they have self driving trucks to deliver product (ie disruptive technology), that would be a net positive. As I said before, they lose their largest customer Whole Foods but I read that almost 2 years ago and they still services that account.

IMHO this company is just now demonstrating profitability and the market may still be skeptical that this is a covid one off situation. I was unfortunately very skeptical on amd and bailed way to early on it like 300% ago.
i sold a couple of calls against my unfi position when it hit 20 . I am trying to hedge my exposure by selling calls now more and more where the event doesnt trigger any taxes.

I finally came to the conclusion that that i am ok with an 8% total portfolio return and selling calls really helps. as i wait on value plays like bwel trq and the like to happen. ori has turned out pretty well so far. I was a week early on ibm but thems the breaks. it is still paying 5.5% now. i decided to sell my small position in msge at a small loss. I am looking to deploy those funds elsewhere and not yet ready to commit more funds to the market until we see what happens with the election and its aftermath. OTOH if i can get a nice dividend that would be an inducement.

a 20% add to UNFI today as my Buy target was hit at $14.66/share. 5 PE is extremely cheap.

Did not even reach the ADV number today. End of the month profit taking/selling. Who Knows but 5 PE is quite attractive.

More one time charges but much less than last year

Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 was $1.0 million, which included $16.4 million of restructuring, acquisition and integration related expenses and $24.1 million of non-cash charges primarily related to the acceleration of unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discounts from the prepayment of the term loan.
