Brewery faces fine, takeover after disappointing year
Moreover, it has not annulled it and therefore might be fined. The company lacks operating capital and can only use 25% of its maximum output. Parkiet has learnt that not only Denmark's Bryggerigruppen, the producer of Faxe beer, but also Britain's Cobra Beer as well as Scottish & Newcastle, owner of the Foster brand, have spotted Brok-Strzelec as a potential acquisition. However, the potential investors are only looking to purchase the company's production facilities, and not the company itself. The publicly listed brewery recorded a net loss of zł.8.3 million on revenues of zł.112.4 million. The initial prognosis predicted a net profit of zł.2.2 million. The fine for not withdrawing from the forecasts might cost the company zł.500,000. (Parkiet, p. 3) A.K.
