...today. 'Sold at just over a £1 for 22% profits 'May come back in, depending on the New Business Results at the end of this Month. GLA & Best Regards, Blue
I have held Banco Santander for a long time. The shares are in a Selftrade Isa and they do not allow me to use the share option. My last quarterly dividend was 1.5% or 6% over a full year, and that is after tax deductions. I hope this helps...
I also have an eye on Santander at 10.15% though think the cash would be taxed at Spanish rate, so would have to take share option to save on that.
Hi driftking27, Yup, looking good here 52 Week High & 104p paid... I'm now 22p/27% up but tempted to hold for the Final Dividend...which should be around 5p ( & announced in the Finals on 23rd of September ). New business results for the year are scheduled to be announced on 30 July...so I may take a rain check just before then. Well played on your recent purchases, I also recently bought AZN (at 4069p ), RR. ( at 756p ) & GSK ( at 1365p ) ..& 'hold SL. Best Regards, Blue
Hansard has held up nicely over last 14days. Looking over 10yrs still looks good. I still have my eye on Hansard just don't know what direction or zone its in at the minute... I recently bought SL. GNK, VCT, AZN, RR & BA., Still I have my last £4500 and its either here or a top up on GSK?
Thank you BlueDealer. This has been really worrying me, mostly because I couldn't understand the problem, but I am very happy with this outcome.
101p paid...Yay! :-D
Thanks courier...

I have held these shares for 2 years, mainly for the excellent dividend. I will admit to the same anxieties as yourself over dividend coverage. The price makes HSD a good buy and Panmure Gordon rate them a BUY with a possible price of 105p So far they have definitely added to my ISA with small losses in share price last year being more than made up by the dividend. I do worry about their litigation problems, that continue to appear in their annual reports. I keep returning anxiously to the company figures but so far have no regrets. My figures for Apr 1st 2013 to Apr 1st 2014 show the share price loss and the dividend combined returning 4% in the one year. From Apr 1st 2015 to now my share price gain gives me 5.5% with the dividend still to come so I hope for a double figure yield. Remember to do your own research.
So tempted to put £? in here very soon, but still unsure nearly after 12mths with EPS v dividend payout...? Can anyone here see it improving so that eps is at least the same as dividend payout? Thanks... I do understand that they had a large cost of around £5m last year due to transfer of a business to Europe...
Plus an outperform rating at Macquarie (HSD) & 111p Target price... http://www.dakotafinancialnews.com/hansard-global-plc-given-outperform-rating-at-macquarie-hsd/123083/
Decent volume as well ;-)
Hope he finally orts out the few legacy legal wrangles...

...at sub 82p ( shown as a sell! ).... For the potential capital gain & the future dividends... GLA & Best Regards, Blue
Just to clarify this post, this purchase was made May 2014 so is quite old news. However, I note he purchased the shares at 90p, above the current price. I've been looking for an entry into this share at below 85p and today it dipped below so I pick some up at about 84.5p inclusive of buying and selling commissions. If the final divi is maintained, this equates to a 10% - crazy.
Date: Tuesday 06 May 2014(Partly answering my own question, above.) LONDON (ShareCast) - Savings and investments group Hansard Global warned profits would be hit by an issue in its charging procedures and that new business wins had fallen badly as flagged. Hansard brought forward its quarterly statement after it identified weaknesses in its procedures in relation to Chargeable Events certificates required by tax authorities, which it expects will cost the company around £5m. The AIM-listed company said the weakness came as a result of the transfer of its Europe business's administration to the Isle of Man.
LONDON (ShareCast) - The Non-Executive Chairman and founder of Hansard Global, Dr Leonard Polonsky, has increased his stake in the specialist long-term savings provider with the purchase of two million shares. Taking his stake in the group to 41.34%, Polonsky spent 90p a share at a total trade value of £1.8m. The deal was made three weeks after the group reported profitable trading for the nine months ended March 31st, although said new business volumes were around 45% below the level of new business for the comparative period in the prior financial year.
For a few years these comments have been in the Yearly Report. They refer to legal actions against Hansard Global. I am starting to wonder if the prospect is dragging the price down. I don not think these suits will hold up, after all Hansard is an experienced broker and they don't think they will lose. "* Our estimate of the Group’s exposure, including professional costs, in relation to the issue of Chargeable Events Certificates announced in FY 2014, remains unchanged at £5.0m; * There has been no material change in the litigation against Hansard Europe. Writs totalling approximately £5.4m remain outstanding (30 June 2014: £5.2m). We continue to defend these claims strenuously."
Would it be that shareprice is drifting away due to earnings drifting away and dividend yield going up. Looks obvious to me! The current yield is just silly and should be cut by 1/3 to at least 6-7%.
financial market ****s, this share price should be a lot higher !
believe this share is drifting away, I would have thought it was going higher. Excellent dividend yield, so bizarre that share price has fallen.
Seems like its stuck at 85/87 and the spread is horrible IMO. Divi % is great as long as can be maintained but cannot see it breaking out from this price range any time soon. Hope it does.
