DEC Pros14 Sep 2024 21:16
DEC Pros, I don't see it anymore!
If DEC would keep the old dividend 30% this would be DECs ultimate Pros. Rusty talk alot that hedges can pay debt and dividend... Last couple of years DEC lost more than 1B on hedges and cut the size of dividend.
I understand dividend cut like KNOP did, to pay off debt for ships, you know how much debt they have and how FCF will improve and dividend will rise again.
But with DEC, I don't know how much debt will be on the end of the year from 1,6 to 2B? There is no end, just more leverage for nothing.
Leverage must bring 5-10x, not 10% yield (for the moment) and upside potential of few %, DEC have leverage but muted upside potential.
