    • Spotlight initiates Capital raising
      • Manchester retailer Spotlight Group has raised $10 million in a bid to help struggling retailer Mosaic Brands bounce back. The company, which bought the failed Harris Scarfe chain from administrators Ernst & Young, has taken out about $32 million in convertible notes. The Mosaic Company is planning to raise up to $35 billion through a rights issue that will give its major shareholders a 36 per cent stake. The offer will also be made on a pro-rata basis. The notes are convertible into shares after 12 months. Mosaic, which is mainly focused on the 50-plus age group, is struggling due to the impact of the pandemic. Its stock price has fallen almost 30% since the beginning of the year. The company’s accounts for the year ended 2021 showed that its net current liabilities were $155.8 million, which were mainly due to the company’s capital raising. The company, which owns the Noni B and Rivers businesses, said it had raised $145 million through a placing with institutional investors. The group slashed its costs by $92 million in the past year. It plans to further cut costs this year. Mosaic booked another multi-million dollar restructuring charge in 2020 following the write-down of its entire portfolio. For the 12 months to June 27, sales fell 3.8 per cent to $708.8 million, while online sales grew by 19 per cent. In the first eight weeks of 2022, sales in lockdowns in Victoria and the ACT have fallen. Online sales have also risen. One of the competitors of Spotlight, Adairs, have been doing extremely well during this period with sales up in both Australia and New Zealand. If you’re looking to buy from Adairs, use an Adairs promo code for your Adairs online purchase.

    • The eyes and glasses working together

You may sometimes wonder how exactly glasses work and what it does. When you look at objects around you, the light is actually reflected off the object and into your cornea and lens of your eyes. The image you receive is actually upside down and imprinted onto your retina. This image is then sent to your brain which then interprets the image correctly. If you have problems with your vision then the most likely reason is that the eye is not reflecting the light correctly. The purpose of glasses is to ensure that the light entering the eye reflects correctly so that the brain can interpret the picture correctly. It is therefore important that if you want to have good vision to purchase the correct glasses. You can purchase glasses using a Clearly coupon or a clearly contacts coupon to get the price down.

    • End of an Era
      • From the owners of Bodega, Murray Hepple and Catherine Popert. It is with considerable sadness that, for reasons beyond our control, we regret to announce the closure of Bodega’s doors at the end of this year, after 25 years of faithful and committed service to live music in Wellington. Whilst unhappy at this turn of events, we are proud of our history in bringing so many and such a wide variety of seminal, local, national and international acts to the Bodega stage. We are of course indebted to the loyalty of our patrons, our fabulous staff, and the exceptional talent that has graced our stage over the years. It has been a privilege to bring internationals as varied as The White Stripes, Steve Earle, Killing Joke, ASAP Ferg, Midge Ure (Ultravox), Tech N9ne, Bad Manners, The Melvins, Peter Hook (Joy Division, New Order), Black Rebel Motor Cycle Club, Lloyd Cole, Roni Size, The Misfits, Ghostface Killah, Lydia Lunch, Nik Kershaw, Ace Freely (Kiss), The Fall, Selector, Earl Sweatshirt, Everclear, Peter Murphy (Bauhaus), The Beat, The Buzzcocks, to name but a few, some of whom e.g. Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, KT Tunstall, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Pokey La Farge, Kitty Daisy and Lewis, have returned repeatedly and are kind enough to have listed Bodega as one of their all-time top ten gigs. Likewise, we are proud to have played host to so much exceptional local and national talent, including the likes of Tim Finn, Fur Patrol, Gin Wigmore, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Hollie Smith, Fat Freddy’s Drop, The Chills, Avalanche City, Opshop……….the list goes on. In light of all of this, we will finish off the next 6 months celebrating these 25 years of magical live music in Wellington. We will start to announce some great gigs in the coming months… ‪#‎Bodega25‬ The post End of an Era appeared first on Bodega.
