10/8/2019 11:30	diku: Have you heard of any CEO apologise for loss of shareholder value?...no never because they don't have control of the share price...infact nobody has a control of the share price...too many variables....hence the distortion company and share price movement... Investors who have lost a lot here can forgive themselves, this was unpredictable, although it all seems obvious after the event. Amazing really. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
30/7/2019 10:03	sarkasm: invezz Centrica share price sinks as group slashes dividend Tsveta Zikolova Tsveta Zikolova July 30, 2019 2 min read Share this article! Centrica’s (LON:CNA) share price has slumped in London this morning as the company updated investors on its interim performance, posting a fall in revenue and profits and taking the axe to its dividend, amid the UK energy price cap and additional pension contributions which have pressured the company’s cash flow. The British Gas owner further announced that its chief executive Iain Conn was stepping down. As of 08:21 BST, Centrica’s share price had given up 10.33 percent to 81.46p. The shares are significantly underperforming the broader UK market, with the benchmark FTSE 100 index currently standing 0.24 percent higher at 7,705.24 points. ‘Exceptionally challenging environment’ Centrica announced in a statement this morning that its adjusted revenue had dropped two percent to £13.8 billion in the first half of 2019. The group’s EBITDA meanwhile fell 19 percent to £1.9 billion, while the company’s adjusted operating cash flow came in 32 percent lower at £744 million. “Centrica faced an exceptionally challenging environment in the first half of 2019, which impacted earnings and cash flows,” the group’s chief executive Iain Conn said in the statement, adding that the company had “regrettably had to make the decision to rebase the dividend”. The British Gas owner said that it was slashing its interim payout to shareholders by 58 percent to 1.5p per share. The update comes after it emerged earlier this month that the company was planning to lower its payout to shareholders. Chief executive Iain Conn to step down Centrica announced in a separate statement that Iain Conn had agreed with the board that he will step down as CEO and retire from the Board next year. The British Gas owner, however, expects that he will remain with the company at least until next year’s annual general meeting. According to MarketBeat, the British Gas owner currently has a consensus ‘hold’ rating, while the average target on the Centrica share price stands at 113.46p. Read Full Thread Follow Reply

02/7/2019 17:33	la forge: CHEERS WHATUPS Is the Centrica share price heading for 110p again? [Fool.co.uk] Alan Oscroft Fool.co.uk2 July 2019 Business accounting concept, Business man using calculator with computer laptop, budget and loan paper in office. Business accounting concept, Business man using calculator with computer laptop, budget and loan paper in office. Centrica (LSE: CNA) has been regularly popping up in my stock filters these days, making me wonder if it’s finally time to buy. Shares in the owner of British Gas have recently fallen to a 21-year low, but can they really keep on sliding? What do I mean by stock filters? I regularly run a scan of the FTSE 100, checking on various fundamental measures. I look for stuff like low P/E, high dividends, good dividend cover, low PEG, all kinds of things. And, increasingly, Centrica makes the cut. Looking for undervalued dividend stocks, the other day I narrowed the FTSE 100 down to those with a dividend yield of 5% or more, cover by earnings of at least 1.3 times, and a P/E that’s no higher than 14. And Centrica made the cut. Earnings rebound? Earnings at Centrica are expected to fall again this year, but analysts have EPS starting to climb again in 2020. That would put the stock on a forward P/E of around 11 for the current year, dropping as low as 8.5, based on next year’s forecasts. There’s a dividend cut on the cards for this year too, after the firm had maintained its 12p per year for four years in a row while earnings were falling. And as an aside, that’s something I don’t like to see — companies that stubbornly keep their dividends going until it’s almost too late. Sadly, it’s a very common thing. But I’d much rather see dividends paid more variably as, and when, the cash is there to cover them reliably. Anyway, even with forecasts suggesting the payout will be slashed to around 7.8p this year, and then nudged down to 7.5p next, that would still provide yields of 8.7% and 8.3% for the two years, respectively. Dividend cover Cover by earnings wouldn’t be great. But we’d be seeing 1.33 times by 2020, if these predictions are close to the truth, and that wouldn’t be too bad in the energy sector where dividends are generally only modestly covered. This isn’t a picture of a company bouncing with health I’m painting here. But, at the same time, it looks like it could be passing the bottom of its poor spell. I can’t help feeling there’s more pessimism in the share price than is justified. Let’s imagine a 25% upside and a share price rising to 112p. That would bring those P/E predictions to undemanding levels of 14 and 11 for the two years, respectively, and the dividend yields would drop to 7% and 6.7%. That would still represent a very desirable income level. Trading In its most recent trading update in May, Centrica told us things remain tough, but that it’s still on track for its cash flow and net debt guidance, with £250m of efficiency savings and £500m of non-core divestments expected by the end of the year. Net debt should still be around £3bn-£3.5bn, and I see that as the biggest risk right now. Interim results are due on 30 July, and debt will be the first thing I’m looking for. Would I buy Centrica shares? No, because of my cautious investing approach, and because these days I won’t buy recovery stocks until I’ve seen them recover. But for a bolder contrarian investor, I reckon Centrica could be worth a close look now. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
01/7/2019 08:02	florenceorbis: Investomania Are recoveries ahead for Vodafone Group plc, easyJet plc, Centrica PLC and Marks and Spencer Group Plc? Do these shares have turnaround potential? Vodafone Group plc (LON:VOD) (VOD.L), easyJet plc (LON:EZJ) (EZJ.L), Centrica PLC (LON:CNA) (CNA.L) and Marks and Spencer Group Plc (LON:MKS) (MKS.L) July 1, 2019 Robert Stephens, CFA FTSE 100 Centrica PLC Centrica PLC The performances of shares in Vodafone Group plc (LON:VOD) (VOD.L), easyJet plc (LON:EZJ) (EZJ.L), Centrica PLC (LON:CNA) (CNA.L) and Marks and Spencer Group Plc (LON:MKS) (MKS.L) have been disappointing over recent quarters in my view. Investors seem to be concerned about the financial prospects of Vodafone. The company is investing heavily in 5G and in acquisitions. This may have contributed to its decision to rebase its dividend, which seems to have caused investor sentiment to come under pressure. I think that the Vodafone share price offers long-term recovery potential. Its decision to enter into partnerships and become a simpler business could catalyse its financial performance, but it may be a gradual process. easyJet’s financial prospects continue to be uncertain to my mind. Even though fuel costs may moderate due to a lower oil price, overcapacity and a high level of competition at a time when consumer confidence is weak could lead to a difficult period. Still, with the stock having a P/E ratio of 7, I think it could offer a margin of safety. I also think easyJet’s balance sheet and strong position in the budget airline segment may allow it to gain market share over the medium term. Marks and Spencer may take time to deliver improving financial performance in my opinion. It is investing heavily in its omnichannel prospects, but I feel that other retailers have got a head start in this respect. Therefore, while I think the company has a strong brand and a loyal customer base, I feel that some of its rivals have business models that are better aligned with evolving customer tastes. As a result, I view Marks and Spencer as a long-term recovery stock. Centrica’s uncertain outlook could hold back its share price in the near term in my view. The company faces political and regulatory risks that are showing little sign of subsiding to my mind. Therefore, while it has a dividend yield that is now in the double digits, I feel there may be better opportunities for me elsewhere. It wouldn’t surprise me if Centrica continues to underperform the FTSE 100 in the short run, although a successful turnaround cannot be ruled out over future years as it seeks to become more efficient under a revised strategy.

21/4/2019 16:21	turvart: Sorry Whatsup32, As I was writing my post you posted, I wasn’t talking about your last post being great sense, I was talking about the post before that. Personally I don’t think CNA should reduce their holdings in Spirit Energy they should actually increase their holdings lol and hope that the brilliance of Spirit Energy can help CNA share price hold up, if CNA sell holding of Spirit Energy then they will sell their gold and the Sp will drop even more IMO.

21/4/2019 09:53	whatsup32: 1. Dividend will more then likely be cut to around 4p. (4% per annum return is reasonable assuming share price £1) If it is cut share price will likely drop , if it is not share price will still likely drop as the company would be seen not having done the right thing and in anticipation of a cut further down the road. 2. Weather is mild so don’t expect bumper sales , 3. Nuclear stake has been on the chopping block for some years with no takers and if that wasn’t enough two? Of the reactors are shut down due to cracks producing NO power 4. Labour is getting stronger in the polls 5. Cannot increase prices to compensate for extra costs 6. Cutting staff to the bone and probably reducing future investments Short term share price is likely to go down but once the dividend is cut with an immediate adjustment to share price , I think CNA will see a steady clime in its share price. Every one is looking for someone to blame for the collapse in share price . But I’m of the view BOD have done a good job . They sacrificed loss making customers (profit is sanity) Invested in digital Cut costs to the bone Bonus may not be timely but he deserves his salary. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
28/3/2019 14:10	hifc231: I'm amazed at this shares price, back in 2005 when the Dividend was 8.4p (full year) the share price was trading at 220-225. Here we are paying 12.p (full year) dividend and the share price is 116? I'm stuck with a get out price of 170 so still long way to go for me. My point is if the Dividend is reduced from 12p to say 8p (1/3 cut) then in theory the share price shouldn't even be below 200 (based on history). Crazy how share prices are calculated on speculation and not facts. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
27/3/2019 11:08	jpjohn1: Yes Nortic, CNA share price just seems to keep dropping, and even on good days we don't go up. Unless we have a good rise in the next 6 weeks or so unfortunately with xdiv coming up, most company's go down by what they pay out. I can see this just over the pound mark. Hope that's wrong, and we hit the 130p mark. It takes a brave man at the moment to buy a large holding here. Don't forget we were saying not to long back this is a two pound share and look what's happened Read Full Thread Follow Reply
22/3/2019 08:49	338: How can share buy back drive CNA share price up? It has been done in the past (a £500 million share repurchase programme) and look at the share price now. Positive impact of share buy back won't last long. == the logician21 Mar '19 - 17:36 - 16468 of 16496 absolute tosh. cash flow was very good last year. if they can achieve that they could maintain the dividend and do a £400m share buyback as well. we know cash flow will be a bit weaker this year. so they should maintain the dividend then start a £400m annual share buyback in a couple of years.
