18/7/2017 20:57	philanderer: Market report British American Tobacco and Imperial Brands slumped on a stumbling wider market as separate strategies by the British and Indian governments to stub out smoking weighed on the cigarette makers. Exposed to the Indian tobacco market through its stake in conglomerate ITC, investors dumped BAT as the government increased levies on tobacco products by as much as 10pc. The company’s heavy weighting on the FTSE 100 dragged down the index, its shares shedding 68p at £52.37. “ITC accounts for 12.5pc of BAT’s market capitalisation, implying a reduction of around 1.5pc for BAT’s share price”, argued RBC Capital Markets analyst Mirco Badocco.

17/3/2017 12:20	andrewbaker: Interesting article from the SeekingAlpha website: 'British American Tobacco said demand for its "glo" device overwhelmed supply in its Japan test marketing as global cigarette giants shift focus to the "heat but not burn" category amid declining smoking population. Philip Morris (NYSE:PM) announced earlier this month that it had more than doubled the supply of its IQOS tobacco device but it was still not enough to cover demand. BTI +1.1% premarket.' And as I posted a short while ago £50, once broken up through, will become a solid support level going forward: it's yet to be tested, and maybe even £51 will hold. This is a good share to buy and hold: the dividend gives better returns than a deposit account, and as long as one doesn't commit capital that will be needed in the short to medium term, your deposit increases too, courtesy of capital growth in the share price. Buy or buy more, especially if £50 does get tested for any reason. Read Full Thread Follow Reply

05/8/2015 15:17	grahamburn: Andrew. Not sure you are giving good advice here. Historically, the share price has usually dropped by a similar amount as the dividend due on the "ex-date", so a purchaser now will not benefit significantly. However, if you're saying buy BATs for a substantial dividend and medium to long term capital growth, then I would concur with you fully. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
18/6/2014 10:06	grahamburn: Andrew. Where do you get "ex-dividend in a while" from? Final dividend was paid early in May. Interims announcement usually end of July, with ex-div end of August and payment end of September. Or is your "in a while" a "couple of months"? edit: Just to be clear, I don't disagree with any of your analysis otherwise. Great share price and dividend performance over the past 15 years or so.

14/11/2013 12:18	andrewbaker: Buying own shares to hold in treasury, and being much involved in e-cigarettes, makes BATS a good longer term holding. and the dividend payments help a lot too! lol. Even with smoking reducing in the developed world, BATS has doubled its share price in under five years, and paid out lots in divis for its shareholders too. For long term cash, it's far better than any deposit account I know of. Disclosure: long BATS. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
23/10/2013 12:30	asagi: Hi MIATA, I would not want to pay 15.4 times earnings for 5% profit growth. Unless people are buying BATS for the dividend (forecast 4.3%). Might income investors prefer Shell, 5.0% forecast (worse earnings growth forecast) or HSBC (4.6% forecast yield, with better growth forecast than BATS). In March, analysts were forecasting 230p EPS from BATS in 2013. Today, that is 220p. In six months, market expectations for earnings growth at BATS has fallen from 13.5% to 8.6%. That's quite a material change in expectations and may explain the fall from 3800p to where we are today. It also shows the importance of the buyback. Three things: 1) little chance of share price growth unless expectations of earnings growth pick up again (how likely?). Who wants to own a share when they cannot imagine a scenario whereby it would rise? 2) regulatory pressures, falling volumes are going to hit profitability MORE with time. 3) if the market decides that the stock is ex-growth, it will get a P/E of 10, not 15+. 4) there are better shares out there 5) cashflows are in decline. Timescale: dunno. If forecasts keep falling, so will the shares. There is nothing to suggest that BATS deserves a higher rating. After 2013 year is reported, if the 2015 forecasts come through showing sub-inflation growth then that could be the end of the 12+ rating. 2013 cashflow could be interesting. So, I'd suggest that we could see a material move within six months. Asagi (short BATS) Read Full Thread Follow Reply
