You are correct Lloyds will wait until the results of the FCA review are known.
Companies cannot take provisions unless the amount can be reasonably estimated. The FCA review makes this impossible.
Close Bros didn’t take a provision, they cancelled the dividend. Incidentally motor finance is about 20% of Close Bros business.
I admire the optimism in here for 1.84p and higher in some cases. The troubles brewing in car loans and a Labour govt that hates bankers might mean they tread cautiously and while I hope the optimism is realised tomorrow I am not so sure.
Moneyman,
Why is it a small dividend ? 2.76p for the year equates to 6.38% at the closing price today.
Moneyman....,..Institutional Investors own circa 84% of Lloyds shares and their preference is a share buy back. So it will always get voted through at the AGM every year. Private investors just have to accept that.
How does the “cop out” of small dividends and share buy backs actually benefit small shareholders -at least 50% of profits should be genuinely distributed to shareholders via dividend-this would not damage the shareprice as the yield would be higher
Including the interim dividend of 0.92p, then the total distribution paid to share holders for 2023 will be £3.752B.
I think it will be what most are expecting, 1.84p divi and £2B buyback........total distribution to share holders £3.168B. I can't see them setting aside any money for Car Finance, probably wait and see what the FCA actually say in September.
I really don't care about the share price until I NEED to sell. Just keep my dividend going, 100% tax free from the pile in my ISA, and all is good. £2bn, or more of buybacks, would just make good even better FOR ME!
Everyone is different, but I'm here for the long term and happy :)
1.98 divided
2.5 billion buy back
Which will eventually go into excess and suddenly disappear with the change of management.
1.92p Divi, £2 billion buyback and £0.5 billion provisions for FCA investigation
2.2p
2bn buyback
Sticking with .0202p dividend and poss special dividend ,most likely more buy backs.
1.92 dividend
2 bn buyback
0.50 special.
You heard it here first.....
I will be a buyer on weakness @40p &below and a seller of 5-10% of my holding @54p...I may not be busy with lloyds tomorrow...pretty certain I will be receiving a £××,××× on the 21st of May though..gl
1.84p+ dividend and £2bn+ buyback please

Another myth peddled by numbnuts and Mick b etc completely busted !
Good old Micron, I always did like him.
Jcb lti will probably send him a congrats card with a foot note saying its ok to take all the divi money and a 4 bill bb would be fine as when the sp drops to 20p i can buy a heap more non divi shares
It can go to 24p morrow don't care i'll buy for the 3rd time at that price.
Wait for it........🤢
"Why is it that when I say I am the only Englishman in my road that the post gets removed?"
So. we've narrowed it down to Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales or abroad ;-)
Hold on to your heat she's going down
Maybe some one will ask Charlie why the share price is lower then when he took office even after £4 billion buybacks at results presentation
40p?
