Directors at <b>Dairy Crest</b> made a combined effort to shore up the share price of the cheese, butter and milk supplier, soon after a profit warning sent the firm's shares sharply lower.<br /><br />Executive managing director Martin Oakes bought 19,787 and non-executive director David Richardson took 12,367.<br /><br />Meanwhile finance boss Alastair Murray, chairman Simon Oliver and executive managing director Martyn Wiks took 10,000 shares.<br /><br />Each director paid 200.65p meaning the combined value of their purchases was about £125,000.<br /><br />The spending spree comes the week after Dairy Crest warned adjusted profit before tax for 2009 will be approximately 10% below last year as it posted lower half-year profits. <br /><br />"Looking forward to the second half, the economic environment is becoming increasingly tough and more difficult to predict," said the firm. <br /><br />"We expect business performance to be impacted by the current downturn, weaker returns from dairy ingredients and lower realisations from the sale of surplus properties."<br /><br /><br /><b>Top Director Buys</b><br /><br />Canaccord Capital (CCI) <br />Director name: Mr Peter MacLachlan Brown<br />Amount purchased: 50,000 @ 246.88p <br />Value: £123,440<br /><br />Allied Gold (AGLD) <br />Director name: Mr Mark V Caruso<br />Amount purchased: 1,000,000 @ 8.79p <br />Value: £87,900<br /><br />Hansteen Holdings (HSTN) <br />Director name: Mr Richard S Mully<br />Amount purchased: 75,000 @ 65.00p <br />Value: £48,750<br /><br />Dairy Crest Group (DCG) <br />Director name: Mr Martin Oakes<br />Amount purchased: 19,787 @ 200.70p <br />Value: £39,713<br /><br />Laird (LRD) <br />Director name: Dr William R Spivey<br />Amount purchased: 50,000 @ 68.80p <br />Value: £34,400<br /><br />Laird (LRD) <br />Director name: Dr William R Spivey<br />Amount purchased: 50,000 @ 65.80p <br />Value: £32,900<br /><br />Macfarlane Group (MACF) <br />Director name: Mr Peter Atkinson<br />Amount purchased: 142,500 @ 17.50p <br />Value: £24,938<br /><br />Macfarlane Group (MACF) <br />Director name: Mr Graeme Bissett<br />Amount purchased: 142,500 @ 17.50p <br />Value: £24,938<br /><br />Dairy Crest Group (DCG) <br />Director name: Mr David H Richardson<br />Amount purchased: 12,367 @ 200.70p <br />Value: £24,821<br /><br />Dairy Crest Group (DCG) <br />Director name: Mr Mark Allen<br />Amount purchased: 10,000 @ 200.70p <br />Value: £20,070
