Investors still hungry for dividend - yield of 5.75 gives share price 365p which is in range now - I think share price may be benefiting from lower yields on utilities subject to bad press.

Dividend likely to be frozen at current levels until cash generation reaches £400m pa target. Currently looks to be c. £300m but this will largely be driven by the run-off of the closed book going forwards, imo. It may accelerate quite quickly depending upon the age of the book - other posters on the board are more informed and may be able to help further.

What attracts me is the MCEV of £5.8bn vs current Mkt Cap of £3.8bn which offers a comfortable cushion for the patient investor, imo. You'll effectively receive £1.00 worth of value for every 65p invested if you're prepared to wait long enough. :-)

Resolution Balance Sheet Surprisingly Strong -RBC

0724 GMT [Dow Jones] Resolution's (RSL.LN) balance sheet is stronger than expected for 1H, says RBC Capital Markets. Adds Resolution has grown the dividend by 5% and says that the full year payout will grow by the same amount. Notes the group has published its economic capital surplus for the first time, coming in at GBP3 billion - significantly above expectations. Says the UK regulator has developed a prudent approach to capital retention. Adds Resolution has confirmed it will not undertake any further acquisitions. Still, says dividend yield of 9.6% (2013E) prompts the question of sustainability. Rates at outperform. Shares trade 7% higher at 235p.

Resolution +6.5% After 1H Update

0721 GMT [Dow Jones] Resolution (RSL.LN) +6.5% at 234p, topping the FTSE 100 leader board after its 1H update. Barclays says the update has addressed the key investor concerns and Resolution has simplified its governance structure to be more conventional. "It has in effect decided to behave like a 'normal' UK Life company," says Barclays. Says this changes the way that investors will view the company, with much greater focus on its operational performance. "We think this is the first step on a long journey to recreate the investment case for this stock." Has overweight rating and 365p price target.

It was on the Resolution website, in with all the annual results and investor presentations. You get the pdf link and a webcast link to the right of it.

I've been reviewing my portfolio recently and this is by far my worst performer, so had quite a close look at them, I think there's plenty of value to be extracted here and I think they are in a great position to start doing that. Looking forward to holding a good income producing stock for a good few years... although I was hoping for a smoother transition from growth to income :-/

I don't even mind splitting the business in to separate vehicles, but I do understand the drop in share price given the upheaval in the company at the mo... don't agree with it, but I understand it :-)

Agree totally pineapple 1. It's good news that they aren't going to waste another £250 million on a pointless buyback.

With a dividend shareholders get real cash. With a buyback though they call it "a return of cash to shareholders" fact is it isn't!

Marks and Spencer "rewarded" their shareholders with a £2 billion buyback a couple of years ago all of them bought back around £4. The share price fell and has never been back to £4 yet. So shareholders got no cash at all from this so called "reward." It's weird that so few people cotton on to these FACTS.

With luck saving this £250 million will help them to maintain the dividend. If they can maintain it that should provide much more support for the shares than a big buyback.

That buyback followed by a dividend cut would probably have seen the share price go a good bit lower. So good for the Directors for abandoning it and how crazy that so many investors saw this as bad news instead of the good news that it is!

View from motley fool is interestingA casual skim through the highest yielding shares in the FTSE 100 brought up a company I knew very little about: Resolution Limited (LSE: RSL). This is an insurance company with a rather unusual history.
The firm was started in 2008 with a strategy of buying up unloved life insurance assets and wringing out excess costs from these companies. The business bought Friends Provident in 2009, and a year later it acquired Axa Sun Life Holdings. Then in 2011 BUPA Health Assurance was bought.
This company has particular appeal for high-yield investors, as at the current price of 213p it is on a forecast yield of 9.8% -- very juicy, and one of the highest yields in the Footsie.
Why is the yield so high? Well, the company had a rough 2011, making a loss of 4.3p a share, having made a profit of 80p a share in 2010. The loss was due to a fall in value of its long-term investments (operating profit was actually up). Since these results came out, the shares have been tumbling.
But, importantly, the company was still able to raise its dividend by 10%, as it has an impressive capital surplus of £2.1 billion.
What's more, things are looking much better for 2012, with the firm forecast to return to profit, and it is currently on a forecast P/E ratio of 9.6, which falls to 7.6 for 2013. Resolution is definitely in bargain territory now.
Has the knife hit bottom yet? Well, having seen what has happened to other companies in the out-of-favour insurance sector such as Aviva (LSE: AV) and Royal & Sun Alliance (LSE: RSA), I wouldn't be surprised to see Resolution fall in price for a while yet. So, for me, this is one to keep on your watch list and monitor patiently.

DJ MARKET TALK: Credit Suisse Alters Ratings On UK Insurers


0909 GMT [Dow Jones] Credit Suisse raises Aviva (AV.LN) and Legal & General (LGEN.LN) to outperform from neutral, cuts St James's Place (STJ.LN) and Admiral (ADM.LN) to underperform from neutral. Also, initiates Resolution (RSL.LN) at neutral. Says that within the UK insurance market, capital risks appear well contained "with buffers exceeding modeled losses by 3x to 10x." Says this "should reinforce investor confidence in the low risk of capital raising and relative security of dividends - ie, we think the sector is investable despite a difficult macro backdrop." Aviva price target is 440p, Legal & General 138p, Resolution 329p, St James's Place 365p, Admiral 1500p. (toby.anderson@dowjones.com)
