You will have 8/9ths of the shates you had post consolidation, multiply original number by 0.8889 and this is what you get rounded down of course. I had 200 and now 177 with 40 micc which is correct. Using HL.

Deal is dead !

IGG seems to like it. Escaping further taxation and keeping ISA limits af 20k maybe?

Yield has not been linked to inflation over the past 3 or 4 yeqrs! We would be getting way more than 8.3p per year. Buyout less likely as a larger company with a load of garbage renewable assets.

Hicl share price recovery? I think I will be a box of ashes before that!

Sack the board. Disgusting.

I hate this share - dividend hasn’t grown in years. Shocking performance over 5 years when markets at all time highs? 23% discount might as well be 123% because the market couldn’t care less it seems.

The buyer always overpays for most takeovers at the time, but in a few years it may look a very shrewd bit of business.

Ebitda was 9.9M Aus dollars according to the news article on 35M revenue.

True, good business when the share price was low.

Most trusts hold buyback shares in Treasury for easy re-issue when the trust is on a premium. Chance of that happening anytime soon are zero I would think. I’ve had trusts buying back shares like there is no tomorrow for years but the discount never closes.

Divi paid today, enough for a fish and chip dinner at least.

I can't explain why but it has been like like this ever since I have been invested and thats many years now. Extremely annoying this time as when it went XD it was 1.26 fx and now it's 1.36 so we have lost about 8% of our dividend in sterling terms assuming it dosen't worsen until payment!

One good day then back to notmal. Seriously regret not selling ages ago.

Totally agree Simon. Total disaster of an investment and I have been here 10+ years. Fees should be based on share price not NAV that might prompt a bit more action.

Looks like it has no bottom at the moment

Happens every time when markets collapse, nothing is safe.

I should think not being able to buy this garbage is a blessing. Pity the restrictions weren’t in place when I bought years ago.

This was my fourth results battering in about a week, bats, ulvr, plus500 and now this. At least rio did not get whacked. My pf is looking a little bruised. I dread company results days.

Shares are getting hammered -9% on top of yesterdays slump so market is clearly not impressed.

Was half expecting it to drop today as it has had a really good run up to results. Main problem is profit is not growing much and margin has dropped a bit. Eps growth is down to aggressive buybacks and as such our dividend grows with less shares in issue. I think the shares are fair value now and can’t see huge upside quickly unless something radical happens.
