Bit of an immediate share price drop on opening that has now nearly corrected. I see that the full year estimate is in line so that is the most important bit.
I note that there is a 15% withholding tax to pay on the Special ; I don't think that can be reclaimed in an ISA.

A strong profitable trading update and a 20p special dividend. Goes ex div on 18/1

I like to see a share price rise ahead of TU , not that the city leaks of course...

[scobak] 06/1/2024 11:49

Last year TU announced a 20p special dividend. Although I cant see a 20p divi, I expect a smaller divi. This ex div and the impact of imports from China and SE Asia caught up in the Red Sea Houtti crisis should bring the price down.

Yes I noticed that too; they got it wrong, TU 9th Jan. The share price plunged after the HY results in Nov, I did rather will out of that buy, will there be another bargain next week? Sp has weakened recently so not promising.

IC gave today as trading update. Nothing so far.
Has anyone any info?

[wad collector] 19/12/2023 08:22

Now corrected by ADVFN.

[wad collector] 18/12/2023 23:42

OK I am going for NERD of the week , but have just noticed that ADVFN have made an error, look at the top R chart , October 23 appears twice. It appears to be the same error across ADVFN. Presume they have compressed the other months or is this some kind of giant leap year?

9th Nov statement.

An interim dividend(6) of 5.1p per Ordinary Share will be paid on 15 December 2023 (H1 FY23: 5.0p) -- FY24 Group adjusted

John v that is the payment date it went XD a month ago, so none of yesterday's drop was XD.

There's greater latitude when it comes to reporting trades(block trades etc)that are larger than NMS ie normal market size.Reporting can be delayed.

MM don't always like to be up front. I think, from memory they have up to two hours to publish trades in the day?

[slogsweep] 13/12/2023 08:30

That's really weird the 06:00 trades have disappeared. Earliest trade now shows is about 07:00

[bulltradept] 13/12/2023 08:29

Thank you slogsweep,

Not a shot I'm any good at playing, unfortunately. :-(

[johnv] 13/12/2023 08:26

Well that accounts for 5p of the 30p dropp.

[slogsweep] 13/12/2023 08:26

I use ADVFN it logs trades. Maybe BME is quoted on an exchange in Europe which are ahead of us in time.

[bulltradept] 13/12/2023 08:17

Where did you see that data then please?

[bulltradept] 13/12/2023 08:14

Must be ex divi date then?

[slogsweep] 13/12/2023 08:11

1/2 million shares sold two hours before market opened this morning. not seen that before wiped about 10% of SP

[arja] 06/12/2023 15:25

the high debt concerns me but chart looks good and share price heading for 650 in time . So more in it and the chart rules :)

[muzmanoz] 05/12/2023 09:08

Where have I said that? It's a pressure facing the business and their ability to pass on costs and compete. I don't think B&M should be able to pay minimum wage on 16 hour contracts whilst their employees claim benefits to make ends meet. But they do.

[sklanc] 05/12/2023 07:37

Sorry that workers receiving a small increase on a pitiful wage upsets your investment plans.
