No ones using British Gas anymore, they're to pricey. I see no growth here at all and I won't be surprised to see CNA @ 90-120p in the weeks ahead.

I agree Minerve, as a holder from 2.05, the initial reaction was painful, but after reading it, my thoughts have changed.Granted the customer loss is a concern, but that does not merit the scale of the fall. This is still a business generating huge amounts of cash and one going through a difficult spell. It is not a dying business or even one in serious decline. In fact the fall is a gift. I will be buying heavily soon, but not yet.

The drop is down to the loss of 800K+ customers but this is swings and roundabouts.

Obviously you can see the mindset of the BOD when they say they are happy to ride with a lower dividend cover for the immediate future.

If they generate enough cash they should be able to pay a dividend and manage the decline like the tobacco stocks with share buybacks etc.. Somewhere there should be equilibrium and support of the brand. I don't believe you can carry current trajectory on forever.

Makes you wonder if the Government have got a little more than they wished for. They MIGHT just soften their stance. They need their tax receipts.

I read the entire statement. Struggling to see how this equates to a 16% drop.

This still generates a ton of cash. Which? consumers don't really help because they don't base their promotion on an holistic review of suppliers. How many of those tin pot outfits actually invest in networks/supply etc? How many share their profits rather than let them go to a few wise guys who manage the call centre? This isn't competition. They aren't competitors - they are parasites.

Had a quick look, am I right 12p div?

That is yield of 8.83% as we speak.

Anyone else read the entire statement? c17% miss on the EPS equating to a 16% fall. 5% of that due to one off cost. Dividend maintained, cover to drop, but no hint of a cut.

and a 3.7p final divi in 2003. Completely overdone imo.

Not pleasant for current holders. Hold fast.

At this rate Corbyn will get the company for free. Absolute disgrace what the government is doing to these companies and about time their duplicity over green taxes was publicly highlighted so everybody can see what that is really costing.

All the utilities have posted similar downcast results. Some of it is true. Some of it is to fire a shot across the governments meddling and some is no doubt opportunism that it's a good time to get any bad news or write downs out the way - all wrapped up in one lovely RNS. (I think the last one is clever - means future updates can keep positive)

Hi.

Not in here but know what its like waking up to stuff like this.

FWIW there is long term support from 2003 just above 130 which has been the low today.

Good luck all.

Wasn't that long ago around 300p mark when talked about as bid target. Today's reaction is as if Labour have won the election! @cnbc @bbcnews @bloomberg

Centrica, over-reaction? Surely a bid target at these levels - everyone needs heating -British Gas. One normally thinks of utilities as being stable investments. Not today @russelljones25 @ZaksTradersCafe

Centrica Says on Track to Hit 2017 Targets Despite Tough 2nd HalfSource: Dow Jones News By Adria Calatayud British utility company Centrica PLC (CNA.LN) said Thursday that it is on track to achieve its 2017 targets, but warned that its energy supply businesses have had a disappointing second half.The owner of British Gas expects full-year adjusted earnings per share of around 12.5 pence, below market consensus. This reflects the impact of a one-off, non-cash charge of 46 million pounds ($61.1 million) in its North America business, Centrica said.Lower-than-expected adjusted operating profits in both its North America and U.K. operations have affected the company in the second half, it said, as has the unusually warm weather both regions experienced in October and November.Centrica raised its full-year efficiency-savings objective to GBP300 million from GBP250 million, and backed the rest of its 2017 targets for operating cash flow, investments and net debt.The company's energy-supply accounts have fallen due to its focus on customer value, it said, adding that trading conditions continue to be highly competitive.
