the market just sees dividend cut though it always does they don't care about turnaround plans they ignore the other stuff it's compare against last year profits and whether the dividend is cut end of.

[isis] 22/5/2019 08:00

Seems reasonable in the current climate. imo

[buywell2] 22/5/2019 08:00

Yes ... like I said

But they have Amazon coming into the picture with Gazillions to spend

Future payments of dividends changing:

The Board is recommending a final dividend of 17.0 pence per share, giving a full year dividend of 25.0 pence per share for 2018-19, an increase of one pence per share, or four per cent.

· It is then rebasing the dividend and changing the dividend policy. From 2019-20, the policy is for a full year dividend underpin of 15.0 pence per share, which may be supplemented by additional payouts in years with substantial excess cashflow. The dividend is expected to be covered by cumulative trading cashflows over both three and five years.

· Our new dividend policy reflects the additional investment to turnaround and grow our UK business and expected lower cash generation in the early years of the plan.

Depends if market thinks dividend slash is enough , still leaves over 6 per cent at current price , for example with VOD it seems it was not sufficient and price has stagnated .

[buywell2] 22/5/2019 07:53

It's all about future spending requirements and Corbyn risk

Writing letters is a dying art

Amazon will grab a share of the boxes/ bigger parcels market off this bunch next year

Sounds Positive here Royal Mail announced that FY profit before tax rose 13.7% YoY to £241M and operating profit (after transformation costs) surged to £341M from £123M in the prior-year period on revenue of £10.58B, up 4.0%. The Co proposed a FY dividend of 25p per share, up from 24p per share last year.

[gaffer73] 22/5/2019 07:36

Why though?

[crystball] 22/5/2019 07:34

A pretty chunky dividend yield on offer this year and not too shabby next year assuming the share price remains depressed.

[isis] 22/5/2019 07:32

Rebased div to 15p only downside atm.

[dealy] 22/5/2019 07:30

We have a company basically operating a monopoly in the 5th largest economy in the world with 10 billion GBP of revenue and it is valued at just over 2 billion. And the markets think it's a one way bet to oblivion You couldn't make it up.250p today

[creditcrunchies] 22/5/2019 07:19

the results look better than I thought what was the Daily Telegraph going on about - outrageous panic. They made it all up

[hodhasharon] 22/5/2019 06:36

Looks like we’re going North!

[creditcrunchies] 21/5/2019 22:16

I got filled on a pending buy order at 219p today which I forgot to cancel I placed it a couple of weeks ago thinking it would only fill if the FTSE went into a correction. A bit of gamble by the looks of it now as it could crater to zero
