A growth company, similar to super, mm2, cityneon.....etc.....Hope to see share price explode up fast n furious...
Agreed.   Now FE is expanding its business in South East Asia which is indeed a good move to diversify its geographical markets and expand.  
While in JB at City Square, I saw a Cafe bene outlet, not sure if it is owned by FE?   The business seems good there on a weekday afternoon

CEO Sudeep Nair speaking with shareholders after a Food Empire AGM.  NextInsight file photo
Fri, Nov 11:  Release of 3Q results after market close stock price 30 cents. Mon, Nov 14:  Stock 39 cents Fri, Nov 18:  Stock 42.5 cents   |
In the first insider purchase since May 2013, Food Empire' s CEO, Sudeep Nair, has bought 5,408,400 shares for a total of $2.1 million. 
His purchases, made on Nov 14, 15 and 16, came hot on the heels of the release of the 3Q results of Food Empire.
 
| Date |   | No. of shares bought | Average price | Cost | Stake (%) |
| 16 Nov 2016 | 2,500,000 | 41.7 c | $1,042,250 | 44,494,799 (8.35%) |
|
| 15 Nov 2016 | 1,350,000 | 40.3 c | $544,185 |   | |
| 14 Nov 2016 | 1,558,400 | 35.2 c | $548,713 |   | |
 
Food Empire reported US$5.8 million in net profit, a big improvement from the US$657,000 in the same quarter of 2015.
Similarly, the 9M2016 profit of US$11.6 million was a pretty picture compared to the US$3.4 million of a year ago.
The key contributor was the absence or lowering of forex losses:
 
| Food Empire  | 43 cents |
| 52-week range | 19.5-44 cents |
| Market cap | S$218 million |
| PE (ttm) | 18 |
| Dividend yield | - |
| Net asset value | 28.3 US cents/share |
| Source: Bloomberg, Company | |
&diams In 3Q 2016, forex loss was merely US$207,000 compared to US6.4 million previously
&diams   In 9M2016, forex loss was absent compared to US$10.6 million previously.
Forex loss mainly refers to the Russian currency,   as the country is Food Empire' s largest market.
It was 63.2 ruble per US dollar on 30 September 2016, compared with 72.9 ruble per US dollar on 31 December 2015.
Will the forex factor stay positive and Food Empire become a comeback story? The CEO' s purchases signal his optimism on that.

Basically there are too many moving parts. Hard to keep a handle on its financial performance.

From the recent financial results of the group, seems that the group is exposed to the currency exchange rates between Ukrainaian Hryvnia and USD and also between Russian Rubles and USD. These volative foreign exchange rates seems significant enough to affect their revenue, profits and items on their balance sheet such as receivables.

For so many years, it has always been disappointments. But I think they really should change MacCafe name to something else. Whatever the courts rule, to me, this is always a rip off.

In the financials, there should be a "translation of fx gain/(loss)". If I'm not wrong, it's always a loss, be it big or small amount.
Did they hedge against adverse currency exchange movements? If they did, still may not be that bad.
