Just the £3B in cash in the bank, what will that be come year end +0.5B no doubt. When will Cash in hand exceed the entire market cap of £3.7B? Post tax EPS will be 75p by then and clearly on target for that as £50M banked over Q1 due to a reduced loss. It will no doubt bomb the share price as usual :-) utter madness.

Company must:-

Buyback (half the cash on hand could be used)

Dual Listing in NYC (free money ala RYA)

Move the silly accounting period so that Easter is always included in Q2.

Should also consider

Acquisition of smaller competitors (we keep hearing about consolidation, EZJ should be looking at this with spare cash) thinking of struggling tour operators as well as smaller eastern EU airlines. Open up north Africa more for less silly fee happy (EU) destinations.

WTF, only £5

I agree. How much money is too much money for the board?

Those of us who have been here a long time know that the board think shareholders are to get cash from! Not to return cash to!

Thanks Elon, I'm going in 100% on that!

Spooky coincidence, no insider trading here! look away!

RickyRoo, please sell more, it seems to be working!

I'm going to bed now! putting out a mince pie and a carrot! :-)

Good luck all!

Todays rise is just the City Boyz getting an early peep at the figures!

Damn that tax man! (Woman)

What happened to 4p?

Commitment to pay 20% profit as dividend?

£600M profit = £120M dividend

753M share in issue so £120M/753M = 15.9p per share.

So why is the expectation 12p, did I miss something? that's only 15% of profit?

A bit confused why a company making £700M+ would only pay out a £10M dividend to its faithful shareholders and retain almost a quarter of the companies value?

Well with a share price of £15 Jet2 can only manage 4.4p dividend.

We should be hitting 16p divy on a a £5 share price based on coming in on target & 20% agreement.

Put me in the sweep at 750 (just for fun)

Yes, I week until we find out if we are in an echo chamber.

Agree on buyback, why not 20% divi, 20% buyback. That still leaves £400M retained profit for a rainy day!

Considering:-

The pandemic cost the company a £2.1B loss over 3 years.

Last year and this year we make a £1B profit.

Therefore we still have a £1.1B deficit from the pandemic.

The first rights issue raised £400M and the second £1.2B.

So the rights issue and the profit from '23,'24,has exceeded the loss period by £500M.

I want to start seeing my money back !

So by results day we will be net £500M better off considering all of the pandemic

Big drop laughable - £6 not unrealistic.

How can they justify hanging onto £600M in profit? They can't!

How can a company generating £600M in profit be valued at only £4B? it can't!

Time to reward your faithful shareholders I believe.

Well that wasn't the election result I wanted but I look forward to Trump stopping the war (quote 'immediately').

Note: The war knocked £2 off these shares immediately.

Note 2: Opinion polls are junk

I thought a special dividend would rip-off small investors as it's subject to tax (unearned income). Thereby the rights issue raised funds for the companies crisis from the shareholders and the special dividend to return the funds is taxed so a massive loss to those not held in a tax free wrapper.

That is why the 'fair' way to return the funds to all of the shareholders is a buy back.

Back above £4Billion Market Cap. GLA for the TA, hoping for an increase in annual profit of 15% and a buyback and a divi, and a £1 lift.

Am I asking too much?
