hi, do you have solution of this case?

Section A This question must be attempted The Restaurant Group plc. The scenario is intended to be realistic and the date is December 2017 though the storyline is fictitious. "I'm confused" says (rich) uncle Luca one night at dinner. "I have held shares in The Restaurant Group (TRG) for some years now but something seems to have gone very wrong in the last year or so. The shares started to fall and I saw several negative comments in the press. What is going on?? I don't know whether I should sell now while they are still worth something or buy more while they are cheaper than they were some time ago?" After a long and contemplative sip from his glass of vintage port he says "You know a bit about financial analysis from that course at Warwick you are doing. I think I need to understand more about the TRG company. Why don't you take a few days off at my villa in Tuscany and prepare a report about the company for me?" IB91Z0 2 "I need to know how well they are performing, what state their finances are in etc. and also understand more about what is happening to their share price. I have also got some shares in Wetherspoons (I like restaurant shares -it makes a good excuse to go out for dinner!!) so they might be useful as a comparison so I can understand what is happening a bit more. Is the problem with TRG also a problem with all the sector that restaurants belong to? I am reasonably familiar with the terminology of accounting etc. but your reflection on the accounts and ratios calculated from them would be much appreciated."
