2023 profit of E80 mil just announced, solid performance. Full year's results 8th March.
In this morning, still no show but they are in my account. A tad obscure but the fundamentals look good. Could be lonely here. Luck of the Irish to holders, spectators.
There will be serious competition from both irish based Insurers- AXA and Aviva - both of whom are earnest about developing the Farmer side of their business at present
The share value should rocket to 10euro or even higher when the real action begins
This Norwegian company will have to stump up a lot more- if they are serious about gaining ultimate control

Commenting on the results, Andrew Langford, Group Chief Executive, said: "These are excellent results in difficult economic conditions. Key strategic initiatives delivered an increase in premium and customer numbers in an insurance market that continued to contract, resulting in further growth in FBD's market share. We have maintained our prudent management of risk, reserving and investments. FBD has followed through on its commitment to increase its dividend, which is up 29% on 2012. The Group is in a strong position to progress its strategic plans and is investing in future growth. The Board is confident that FBD will continue to outperform its peers in delivering superior returns to shareholders". * Where applicable and unless otherwise stated, all comparative figures have been restated to exclude operations that were sold during 2012 and to reflect changes to IAS 19 "Employee Benefits".
