The final results will have the final 200 dividend in March. The 500 has been split into 3 tranches.

Only one week to go until the results are released. Im hoping for a little reduction in debt as well to go along with the results.

And lancashire always seem to slip under the radar mainly because the dividend yield is poor on paper and the specials are not accounted for.

Look at the dividend history

Lancashire give a final dividend and a special dividend also. Last years final special was only 25c (year previous was 50c) however that was probably due to the cost of the wildfires. This year I'm hoping for a nice special of at least 50c with the final results (hoping more of course but who knows....)

Excellent 3rd quarter results! Increases across the board make it very promising for Lancashire.

A nice special of 75c also. I was hoping for 75 but expecting 50c due to the wildfires previously (a little backlog) so nicely surprised!

Also looks promising for the final special dividend as well!

'I've not been keeping up with everything as I have a life.'.... and you would call that not rude?

Get over yourself. you asked in the forum, the reply was given where you could find it AND what had been said and you replied with above. you reply rudely, then don't complain that someone speaks to you back in a rude manner.

As you have a life? Like the rest of us here but we take responsibility for it. Such as researching our shares. Not my fault you can't look through the RNS tab and see the half yearly results. Maybe...... look for it.

It was already reported by Ithica that the $133 million dividend is to be brought forward to December (as reported on the half yearly RNS) followed by the final dividend in March. In total the expected $200 million at the end of March would reach the $500 million as reported.

Looking forward to the results probably later hslf of november. Will be interesting to see with the generally lower oil prices how Ithaca fared and how progress looks for the next year.

Also wondering if the divi can maintain over the next year. Fingers crossed!

2 weeks until results day and see what a special dividend will send our way (I of course am assuming we will get one unless something horrendous happens over the next few weeks).

Last 2 years we have had $1 in special dividends alongside the normal dividend. I have a feeling it might be a little better this year as last years first special was 75c prior to the wildfires which paid out a considerable amount and may have affected the amount of the 2nd special dividend (I was thinking about 50c amount prior to the wildfires)

Any opinions?

I think more likely people buying for the potential special dividend. So far (touch wood) there hasn't been any major disasters that have exposed lancashire so may be a healthy special again.

The two big holders owned around over 89% of the shares in the company and they were the ones who sold, I dont think thats the reason. Once I get the divi and reinvest it im hoping it will fly back again then, im stilll in the blue so in no rush. When the next update comes around i still think we will get a positive push and then hopefully here about Rosebank in a positive way!

No special dividend has been announced as of yet. It should be the Q3 trading statement in November (if all goes well which fingers crossed it will).

And I'm not as experienced with Shares (only a few years trading) so I like to see the dividend as not as confident with finding growth shares.

Luckily I'm fairly in the blue with Ithaca but am really interested in the dividend aspect even though there is great potential for growth as well. I've invested a hefty percentage of my portfolio here so not adding again so I can even it out. I remain fairly confident though with the excellent results and good return

Luckily I'm fairly well i

I had planned not to but anymore however with the drop larger than the dividend drop as well as the drop over the week it was too tempting not to buy.

The dividend is a very attractive reason for me to purchase these shares. Alongside the growth aspect that I do expect to progress over the next few years.

Why the Share price dropped so much even though it wasn't an ithaca placing, no idea. However its worked out in my favour.

Not a placing by Ithaca but by the majority shareholders of their shares. Which makes this interesting.

With the proposed 2% of the company being sold by DELEK and Eni by a placing, how would this affect the share price? Since its not being placed by Ithaca but by the shareholders itself it shouldn't affect it that much I think? And of course it could be more than 2% depending on the companies and demand.

And with Delek owning a majority, is it better that they do shed some shares for others to come in?

And also net debt reduced (which I like to see as a small bonus)
