It is proposed that the payment of the Special Dividend of 118 pence per Existing Ordinary Share be accompanied by a consolidation of the Company's ordinary share capital. The Special Dividend will be paid as an interim dividend in respect of the financial year ending 31 December 2006 and is expected to be paid to Shareholders on Thursday 22 June 2006. The Company has elected to pay the Special Dividend to all ADR holders in US Dollars. The rate to be paid by the Company will be US$2.17 per existing ADS.

The Share Consolidation will replace every 8 Existing Ordinary Shares with 7 New Ordinary Shares.

Results Out and Divi 10.7p plus a special dividend in 2nd Quarter totaling £500m but no firm data on the special divi ???

Last one in late 2004 was 72p. This on my arithmetic could be 114p??? to be paid in the summer, q2 is April thro June.

I'm not a trader but have held these shares for many years from the old Bass days, I've not kept my eye on the price until now, i was thinking it may be time to bank a profit.any comments appreciated

Wrong so wrong. Stopped out on Xmas eve.

[baughfell] 10/12/2005 09:26

OK that'll do for me. I reckon that 8 quid will be as hard to crack as 7 was.

Short from yesterday target 50% retacement to c. 750p

Britvic price announced- seems pretty healthy.

[0800] 13/11/2005 19:15

Are we looking at some cash back here, with the possible float of Britvic?

[i maximus] 14/10/2005 14:28

is that including the ones they manage but dont own?

[broadwood] 14/10/2005 14:16

They still own hunreds of hotels all over the world.

I think I read 875,000 rooms.

Thats none too shabby

up almost as much as HG on HG disposal news. hasn't IHG sold most of its hotels? is this rise justified?

[broadwood] 14/10/2005 10:47

Hotel valuations in sharp focus now thanks to Hilton.

Very nice trickle down effect for these as a consequence.

[miata] 11/8/2005 15:50

This share has been making new highs nearly every day recently.


IHG announced yet another disposal today. It is selling its Holiday Inn, at Dublin Airport, for £23.3m. The group has now sold well over 100 hotels for a figure now approaching £2bn.

I see that ADVFN has picked up on the New IHG, and has the correct price shown.

There is an RNS out today with details of the next few steps in the capital reorganisation.

Not too sure that you are any better off.
Same as M&B when they returned cash, overall you were no better off, even now.
These were sister companies with the same advisors, and following the same approach.
Any views?
