Posted at 19/11/2024 09:23 by montyhedge Superb from Imps, of course profit taking Bats earlier, Bats brokers in there buying start at 9.00am, so shareprice should move ahead.Bats update should be around 6th December, that's when I think will push Bats to a year end 3200p.Also don't forget ex div 21st Dec another 58.88p in the tax free isa bag. |
Posted at 13/11/2024 15:31 by mcunliffe1 monty: I agree with your sentiment that we get a big enough divi.I can't agree with your suggestion they ditch ITC and use the money to buy their own BATS shares. I'm of the opinion that ITC has better future prospects than BATS. This has echoes of my concerns re. BB's at the likes of ABDN who are, at the end of the day, an investment company yet blow a considerable amount of cash on buying their ever-decreasing in value own shares. Once BATS has sold it's holding in ITC there will of course no longer be any dividend payments arriving at BATS from ITC. They will, to be fair, have reduced their own dividend payments by virtue of having less shares in circulation. But, this could be seen in a similar way to me selling 10 of my 11 SIPP holdings and placing the funds into the one remaining holding. A super concentration rather than a broad spread of risk. Is this wise? |
Posted at 13/11/2024 15:05 by redbaron10 I agree montyhedge.We've seen good post results reactions in the share prices of IMB,PM and MO and if BATS is executing strategy as previously forecast i don't see any reason for an adverse reaction on BATS share price from the trading update on 5th Dec.I've tried researching RFK jr (the likely new US HHS secretary) attitude on tobacco but can't find any definitive statements from him on the subject.He has had strong opinions on the Covid vaccine and he's for removing fluoride from public water supplies so he could be more interventionist than I previously hoped for on public health, from what one would have hoped and expected of a future Trump administration official.We will have to wait and see. |
Posted at 13/11/2024 12:43 by montyhedge This is how I see Bats shareprice heading, Imperial Tobacco report figures next Tuesday 19th November, if they are decent, Bats shareprice will rise as well I see on way to 2850p, Bats trading update around 5th December a further boost. Ex div 21st December, 58.88p. 2950p end of year my projection.Of course all the stars have to align.Good luck bulls. |
Posted at 09/11/2024 07:37 by topazfrenzy I am 100% convinced that BATS will relocate to the US before we know it with Trump now in power. With corporate tax to be slashed to 15% and a bonfire of regulations, any large company would be thinking this, BATS already is big in the US so it makes absolute sense. The UK is no place to be.If this happens, then we are looking at an share price that is at least 50% higher. |
Posted at 22/10/2024 19:31 by redbaron10 Yeah maybe after the uncertainty of our budget on 30th October(ie extra tax on sticks and possible vape tax) and if Trump is elected early in November.The only question to ask as a dividend income investor here is whether the dividend at its present level can be maintained over the next four or five years or maybe even increased.If you feel confident that dividends at this level can be maintained then invest.The Zyn growth story has propelled PM higher today and let's hope the Velo growth story at BAT has a similar effect on the share price in the next results announcement(markets love a growth story to boost share prices).Looking at the current BAT share price you have to think the markets are skeptical of current dividend pay outs and they're pricing in a possible dividend cut sometime like IMB was forced to do.The balance sheet is arguably stronger thanks to lowering of the debt burden, but the overhang of the Reynolds acquisition writedown is still with us sadly. |
Posted at 19/10/2024 11:46 by tag57 The way I understand the RNS is that the Canadian subsidary has gone into creditor protection, to protect the rest of the BATS Group, and that its share of compensation will be paid out of the subsidiary’s cash held and future returns of this entity, not the wider group.Just my opinion but personally think if there was going to be significant impact on the BATS group we would have seen a much larger share price drop. |
Posted at 16/10/2024 13:31 by tornado12 I also have similar weighting in both, but recently focused more in BATS due to their divi yield advantage. I see this as a good medium term income player with marginal upside on share price I plan to continue adding here GLA |
Posted at 03/9/2024 19:54 by redbaron10 If Trump wins in November the board here has to give serious consideration along with the likes of Shell to headquarter themselves in the US imho.This Labour government isn't going to be any friend to big tobacco, or big oil, as we've already seen with possible outdoors smoking regulations along with new vaping legislation and no new North Sea oil and gas licences.And let's get serious, with the state of the Tory party Starmer is likely to get a second term ie 10 years in office.So in the interests of shareholders they have to take their HQ operations to a more business friendly environment of less regulation and more corporate tax cuts which a Trump administration is likely to offer.The Shell boss has already intimated that his share price would be much higher in the US and one has to conclude the same would apply to BAT if you look at comparative MO and PM share prices.PM is at an all time share price high offering half the dividend BAT offers.Okay PM has IQOS as a brand leader and is further along the road with its smoke-free category strategy but BAT isn't that far behind its own smoke-free strategy to warrant where its share price is in the UK surely? Just putting it out there.Some may agree or disagree. |
Posted at 23/8/2024 07:43 by redbaron10 With PM at all time share price highs it would be interesting to know what the share price here would be with a primary listing in New York and a more liquid market.Like PM,BAT has a global reach and is growing its NGPs.Okay BAT's debt is greater in relative terms but it isn't as if PM is debt free...it isn't.Purely hypothetical question i know unless management really consider a headquarters in the US. |
