Turners Auctions 2012 Net Profit Results Show a Successful Year ...

The net profit results for Turners Car Auctions New Zealand have been released and the figures are looking impressive.

(PRWEB) February 18, 2013

Turners Auctions released data showing that their 2012 net profit after tax was the large sum of $4.2 million. This is a 14% increase from the previous year. The revenue for 2012 came to be an impressive $78 million which is an increase of 4% from the previous year.

The reason for the increase of revenue in 2012 came from the Car business and can be partly attributed to Turners Auctions? CashNow product. CashNow provides customers with immediate cash for their used cars. Turners? CashNow auto selling option is a simple way for car owners to sell their vehicle and get immediate cash. Customers simply contact a Turners Auctions? representative to schedule a time to take in their car for a quick analysis. Once a Turners? consultant has reviewed the vehicle they will make an offer. If the seller likes and accepts the proposed price they will leave with a cheque in pocket.

Growth in the Damaged Vehicles Division with a steady performance within the Commercial and Trucks Division couple the rise in popular of CashNow. In 2012 Turners? implemented a strategy to buy more cars domestically. With the introduction of the new emissions regulations that started at the start of January 2012, the Japan import market faced challenges.
Complimenting their CashNow product, Turners also has a BuyNow service which offers customers a simple solution to buying a car with no auction and no haggling. The BuyNow vehicles labelled with their given price which includes a current WOF, registration and on-the-road costs. Turners CashNow and BuyNow services have been very popular amongst customers in 2012 with predicted continual increase in 2013.

The company is also excited about the growth of the Turners Finance ledger by 10% in 2012, which is predicted to lead to further growth in 2013?s interest revenue. Turners? Finance & Insurance offers coverage in competitive finance for new vehicle owners. They offer vehicle finance, finance for boats, motorbikes, trucks and even renovations, personal loans for those much needed holidays and debt consolidation.

At the end of 2012 the Directors declared a fully imputed dividend of eight cents per share, a two cent raise from 2011 due to the strong cash position of the business and balance sheet. The year?s total dividend comes to 15 cents. The Directors have decided to not announce a special dividend for this year due to consideration in a number of growth opportunities which would need investment.

Irish football team's success helped rekindle Staten Island fundraiser

At the rescheduled Notre Dame Club of Staten Island/Knights of Columbus, Manresa Council No. 2147 event on Jan. 7 are, kneeling from the left, students Danielle Lopez and Joshua Lopez. Standing, holding the flag, are students Derek Halligan and Miguel Lopez. Standing behind the flag are Monsignor James Dorney, Principal Margaret Annunziata and Tara Alleyne-Lopez. Standing, back row, are Joe Delaney, the Rev. Michael Cichon, Ann Broderick and Mike McHugh. ? STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. ? On Saturday morning, Nov. 3, just five days after Hurricane Sandy devastated these shores, Joe Delaney of the University of Notre Dame Club of Staten Island and Mike McHugh of the Knights of Columbus, Manresa Council No. 2147, surveyed the destruction of Manresa Council Hall, located on Cedar Grove Avenue in New Dorp Beach.

As they viewed the devastation of homes and property in the area all around Manresa Council Hall, they thought that their Notre Dame-Pittsburgh fundraiser for St. Peter-St. Paul School, originally scheduled that very Saturday at 3 p.m. and now canceled, would never be rescheduled.

For the past 11 years, the Notre Dame Club and Manresa Council have combined efforts to raise funds to support Catholic education at St. Peter-St. Paul School in New Brighton. In fact, since 2002, the two groups had raised a total of $45,000 for the school.

Joe goes on to explain that the Notre Dame-Pittsburgh football game on Nov. 3 ? won by The Fighting Irish 29-26 in miraculous, come-from-behind triple overtime fashion, a win that continued Notre Dame?s unbeaten season ? allowed both men to dream big and save the fundraiser.

If the Irish finished the 2012 season undefeated, they thought, that might allow them to re-schedule the fundraiser and build the event around a Notre Dame BCS Championship Bowl game on Jan. 7.

?The beneficiaries of a re-scheduled gamewatch/fundraiser would still be St. Peter-St. Paul, but would now include the recently established Manresa Council Re-Building Fund,? Joe added.

Unbeaten Notre Dame did end up playing Alabama for the BCS title on Jan. 7. Almost 200 people showed up at The Hillside Swim Club, Bulls Head, to watch the game and support the fundraiser.

Through a series of raffles and prize drawings, a final combined total of $10,000 was raised to help St. Peter-St. Paul School and The Manresa Building Fund. Proceeds were split evenly between the two.

Joe points out that several Staten Island businesses supported the fundraiser by donating food and services. Special thanks to Jimmy Maxx Pizza?s Jimmy McBratney; Joe Gustivino from Pier 76 Restaurant for a large donation of food, and Ed Thatcher for donating hot dogs, rolls, a sheet cake and milk.

Although Notre Dame lost the game to Alabama, 42-14, Joe states:

?The real winners of the evening?s game were the students of St. Peter-St. Paul School and the K of C Manresa Council, who will re-build their Council Hall.?

Assisting Mike and Joe with the planning and organization of the fundraiser was Notre Dame Club members Bob Griswold, Ann Mulchay, Christine Thomson and Mike Waters.

Assisting from Manresa Council was Judith McHugh, Bob and Nancy Bauer, Andrew Diaz and Jim Neese.

In closing, Joe notes: ?Hurricane Sandy did, indeed, devastate Staten Island. However, Sandy could not defeat the spirit of the Staten Islanders, like the members of the Notre Dame Club of Staten Island and the Manresa Council No. 2174.

?Neither of these two groups would allow a tragedy like Sandy to prevent them from helping the children of St. Peter-St. Paul and restoring a community landmark in New Dorp Beach.?

PFT: Bills re-sign Jackson; 'open competition' at QB

AP

On Friday, out of the blue, the Colts announced that they have parted ways with veteran defensive end/linebacker Dwight Freeney.? Technically, they haven?t.? Not yet.

More specifically, the Colts have decided that Freeney won?t be re-signed, which means that he?ll become a free agent on March 12.

Owner Jim Irsay gushed about Freeney in a release confirming the move, saying that ?[f]ew people have meant as much to the success of the Indianapolis Colts as Dwight Freeney,? that ?[h]e has been a dominant player,? and that he ?was an artist, a joy to watch, and the dedication he put toward his craft was a rare quality.?

Irsay also said that Freeney will be inducted into the team?s Ring of Honor.

But if the Colts and Irsay truly want to honor Freeney, they?ll do the honorable thing and cut him.? This would allow Freeney to have a three-week head start on free agency, searching for a team without having to box out the other various free agents who will all be chasing the same cap dollars.

If the Colts are, as they have declared, moving on, there?s no reason to squat on Freeney?s rights any longer.? So if they mean all those nice things they?re saying about Freeney, they?ll do something that will cost them nothing ? while also giving real meaning to the phrase ?part ways.?

UPDATE 9:37 p.m. ET:? A reader raised a valid point.? By cutting Freeney, the Colts would not be eligible for compensatory picks based on his departure via free agency.? However, the compensation drops significantly for players on the wrong side of 30, and with the Colts having so much cap space chances are they?ll sign more players than they lose in 2013, which means they?ll get no compensatory picks at all in 2014.? And if they didn?t cut Freeney in order to improve their standing in the compensatory draft pick formula, they should say so.

SKorea believes NKorea conducted third atomic test

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) ? South Korea said it suspects a nuclear test caused an earthquake Tuesday in North Korea just north of a site where the country conducted two previous atomic tests. North Korea has yet to confirm whether the tremor resulted from a widely anticipated third nuclear test, though an analyst in Seoul said a nuclear detonation was a "high possibility."

The South Korean Defense Ministry, which raised its military alert level after the quake, said it was trying to determine whether it was a test. Nuclear blasts can create tremors but they are distinct from those caused by natural earthquakes.

A U.N. nuclear test monitoring organization detected what it called an "unusual seismic event" in North Korea.

Kim Min-seok, a South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman, also told reporters that North Korea informed China and the United States of its plans to conduct a nuclear test. It was not clear when Pyongyang told Beijing and Washington.

The U.S. Geological Survey as well as earthquake monitoring stations in South Korea detected an earthquake just north of a site where North Korea conducted its second nuclear test in 2009, according to the government-funded Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources.

"There is a high possibility that North Korea has conducted a nuclear test," said Chi Heoncheol, an earthquake specialist at the institute. Chi said a magnitude 3.9 magnitude earthquake and a magnitude 4.5 earthquake were detected in the North's 2006 and 2009 nuclear tests.
