The GBP will weaken as our interest rates come off their highs into 2025, BATS still own 25% of ITC and they are about to sell their non core hotel business and that windfall / special dividend payout will in turn fund our buybacks here for 2025/2026..

We are committed to building a smokeless world and becoming a predominantly smokeless business by 2035, so they plan to be 51% revenue from non combustibles by then, ambitious but not possible, 25.07.2024 - revenue at H1 from smokeless products now 17.9% of Group revenue, up 1.4 ppts vs FY23

A progressive quarterly dividend is fine, mop them up, sit tight, watch and wait (IMO)..

Back on the rising trend line from March 2024 after the recent high to c3000 and could revisit this level for FY.. :o)

All helps lol.We have dropped from 2994 to 2685p in a month, ok we had a 58.88p dividend but even so seems an excessive drop, hopefully Wednesday Bats may get their mojo back.

Of course you are talking about budget day, I'm talking about Bats Capital Markets Day, 16th October real shareprice moving day, up or down, look at Imperial up nearly 5% on their day of news. Fingers crossed Bats have something good to say.

The relative performance of IMB and BATS over the last two years is interesting. IMB has won that race. Which seems counter-intuitive really. BATS has the better market share, faster growing non traditional business and yet IMB out-performs it.

#Spawny100, as hard as it is, think long term portfolio dividend cover sustainability, I have had 3 of my big PF dividend payers cut in half or cut to zero over the last year or 2, VOD/DLG/DEC, it can and will happen IF share prices soften and yields rise they become unsustainable, companies retain more of their earnings and typically pay down debt with it or use it for buybacks..

I also had a some good luck rolling the dice on a couple of AIM stocks a decade ago and got away with it but never push your luck too far, it will bite back..

A 4% * 25, or 5% * 20 with a 5/6% yield offers far better protection through diversification from black swan events and staying in the game is what matters over a lifetime, not getting blown out of the water half across towards retirement and sinking..

That said, I am overweight NG right now after the RI offered up the chance to double down on the position but they do have a monopoly in the UK with a huge moat and barrier to entry from competition, BATS/IMB have also had a cracking run over the summer lifting their weightings too.. :o)

The chart here looked a bit toppy at 2975 so not at all surprised to see it pullback a quid, and hopefully with a FED rate cut tonight the next leg will get underway into the XD 26th..

Dividend tax bands all went up 1.25% in 2021/2022
NICS rates went up 1.25% in 2022
Tax free dividend allowance reduced from GBP 5,000 down to just 500
The CG allowance reduced from 12,000 to 3,000 now

Dividend tax payers have already been reamed, most pay PAYE income tax, NICS and corporation tax as well, there will be nothing left soon, don't get me started.. :o)

I don't believe this is a trading share. Take the quarterly dividend. Buy in at a good price. I bought this 22nd August 2023 and at the time here my notes:


Passes 7 long screens on stockpedia. Usually a strong defensive share and pays a healthy dividend. Share price is at a 10 year low, but seems to have tested these lows a few times in recent months. Buying in for a nice dividend and capital appreciation over time. This is an 18 month plus hold targeting 10-15% per year. Risks are high debt and slow down in historic markets.


With dividends as of today I'm 14.8 % up. My original investment thesis stands and I'm happy to see where this is in another 6 months.

On 12th March 2024 ITC share price was approx. 404. Today, its about 495.

On 12th March I posted as below:

I never did understand the logic in selling down its ITC stake.

MCunliffe1 - 12 Mar 2024 - 11:02:24 - 8629 of 9351 British American Tobacco - BATS
BATS sells down part of its stake in ITC.
BATS consequently receives a smaller amount of dividend from ITC.
BATS uses some of that ITC sale receipt to buy its own shares.
BATS can pay a greater dividend to its shareholders because there are fewer shares.
BATS has less income from ITC to pay its own shareholders.

Kinda' strange don't you think?

Is this a good time to be selling some of the ITC stake given ITC share price has fallen 16% this year so far. Wouldn't your BB logic imply that BATS should be buying MORE of the ITC shares?

With BATS owning 29% of ITC perhaps ITC's drop is also dragging down BATS. However, there are 36 analysts covering ITC. 15 give ITC a strong buy, 17 a buy.

So, BATS management are considering a 4% sell.

To my amateur eye looks like a gap back down to 2300 level

That was partly the reasoning behind my sell @ 2537 a couple of days ago

Looking at the continued pressure on Diageo and Burberry will now sit tight but the dividend yield such as it is is going to bring more competition into the fold from the likes of the insurance investment companies all now with dividends on a par with BATS

CSN
MNG
PHNX
Are all now in the frame jostling for any of my monies that are available

Still inclined to wait until after the elections outcome before splurging any more cash in this increasingly nervous market. Am treating with a pinch of salt the comments made by Davey but the spectre of more regulation will not go away.

Go easy enjoy the summer
