Jax is nothing to do with me . I pop in every now and again but have had a rough few months ( not share related ) so have not really been interested in all this . I did say voda would drop low 70’s , I dont gloat , i am not happy about it but just couldnt see anything happening to make it improve .
I hope for all your sakes it improves but I got out at 86p - i may get back in if things improve but at the moment I am out . Good luck all .
Bad wording as the headline
If you read it actually says increase to 20 %
The UAE operator's cooperation with Vodafone is awaiting regulatory approvals in countries where the British company operates, which "include an agreement to regulate relations between the two companies, and also the possibility of increasing our stake to 20%," Dowidar said.
It is possible for a company to suspend the payment of dividends (ie to decide not to pay them for a time), as a company is not obliged to pay dividends. It is also possible for a company to cancel a dividend (ie not pay a dividend that it had already indicated that it intended to pay), although if and when a company can cancel a dividend will depend on whether it is a final dividend or an interim dividend.
Once a final dividend is declared (ie approved by the shareholders) it becomes a debt that is immediately due from the company to its shareholders, unless the terms of an approving resolution provide for it to be payable at a future date, in which case it becomes a debt due only on that date. Once a final dividend has become a debt due, its payment can be enforced, meaning that the shareholders have a right to sue for that debt, if the dividend is cancelled.
In contrast, the payment of an interim dividend is a decision of the directors and no debt due from the company to its shareholders is created at the time that decision is made, so an interim dividend can be cancelled at any time up to its payment. A shareholder’s right to an interim dividend does not arise until the dividend is actually paid
“Because that's what investors call for when they havn't got a clue”
Surely you dont mean the large shareholders dont have a clue haha !!!!!!
And I have never pretended to know - but lets just say the share price is at levels I have said it would hit - not your rose tinted glasses everytime it has the odd good day . I’m not gloating because I feel bad for the shareholders .
Germany remains under pressure with -1.6%* service revenue growth and -6.1%* adjusted EBITDAaL growth
• Good performance in Vodafone Business with 2.6%* service revenue growth
• Group revenue increased by 0.3% to €45.7 billion driven by growth in Africa and higher equipment sales, offset by lower European service revenue and adverse exchange rate movements
• Adjusted EBITDAaL declined by 1.3%* to €14.7 billion due to higher energy costs, and commercial underperformance in Germany
• Gain on disposal of Vantage Towers supporting significant increase in operating profit and basic EPS
• Adjusted free cash flow of €4.8 billion, reflecting lower adjusted EBITDAaL and tax phasing
• Significant reduction in net debt to €33.4 billion, proforma net debt to adjusted EBITDAaL improved to 2.5x
• Total dividends per share are 9.0 eurocents, including a final dividend per share of 4.5 eurocents
The way it has been going lately and it has dropped 6/7 % last few results . Just dont see the markets liking the results . Hope I am wrong but we have been downward spiriling again for the last few weeks . All the latest announcements have had a negative affect on the SP . Vodafone is not liked fullstop
