Div of 25c so 7% yield now , buying back around 2% of outstanding shares and both of those are only a 30% payout which is going to increase going forward to 30-50%, very nice indeed.....

Making 50c per share net profit in the first half, thats what the share price itself was a couple of years ago, the Irish and Cypriot banks have gone from being the worst in Europe to the best by far ....

They are very bullish, new presentation says they expect to pay out 20-35% of current market cap in dividends between now and 2025 , as well as creating an additional 30-45% of market cap in extra capital, macro position in Cyprus is also excellent with growth running 3% higher than the rest of the eu , overall excellent

Nice 100k gbp director purchase on market , shows its too cheap

Return on equity going higher, bad debts now insignificant, awash with cheap deposits, excellent growth prospects and low cost base, should be heading higher

[catsick] 16/5/2023 07:59

30-50% payouts on current excellent results would be 24-40 cents a year huge yield, these really should be trading above book value with fantastic returns on equity and very low risk with half the balance sheet on deposit at the ecb rather than buying risky bonds like the us banks that are now all in trouble

yes, got this one wrong i admit, was way to cheap in book value basis.

What’s happening Panagos? BOC seems to be flying 😎

[catsick] 20/2/2023 07:28

Fantastic results, if they can produce a return on equity of 19% in the quarter and project 13% next year then they should be trading at a premium to book value or around double where they are now, also 20c plus dividends for 2023 not out of the question

Is another higher bid on the way soon ?

[panagos] 04/10/2022 14:54

[pdosullivan] 20/8/2022 18:26

BOCH has shareholders' equity / NAV of €1.8bn and the Lone Star offer is pitched at €0.7bn.

[tonysss13] 19/8/2022 20:17

no not been following TBCG looks like it's had quite a run

[typo56] 19/8/2022 17:39

Thanks Tony. Interesting comments on the banks in general. Have you noticed TBCG?

[tonysss13] 19/8/2022 16:34

yes odd reaction Typo am a little surprised

bloomberg seems to suggest they are workiing on another offer

[typo56] 19/8/2022 16:26

The market is sleepy and/or doesn't seem to think bid will go through? Possibly flush out another bidder?

If you buy real shares you may get hit with 1% stamp duty.

[tonysss13] 19/8/2022 16:13

potential cash offer at 1.51 euros. around £1.28

Hi all. I've written a blog on Bank of Cyprus, which I am a holder of, that may be of interest to you. https://tbifund.wordpress.com/2021/08/25/bank-of-cyprus-boch-ln-sunny-skies-ahead/

[red5] 25/1/2021 14:44

what just happened to share price

[catsick] 18/1/2021 09:57

Recent deal looks ok, slashes npl and good to be tight with pimco .. at some point with all the reduction in bad debt these should trade at a smaller discount to book

[pdosullivan] 09/1/2021 20:15

The Cypriot market is very over-banked with 29 names appearing on the central bank's Register of Credit Institutions operating in Cyprus. Given the trend towards consolidation elsewhere in Southern Europe, I wonder if BOCH will find opportunities to utilise its strong funding (256% LCR) and capital position (14.7% CET1 ratio) this year.
