Vodafone (VOD) is already one of the worst-performing telecoms stocks and Berenberg is concerned about the ‘achievability’ of 2023/24 guidance.

Analyst Carl Murdock-Smith retained his ‘hold’ recommendation and reduced the target price from 85p to 80p on the Citywire Elite Companies AAA-rated stock, which softened 0.9%, or 0.7p, to 78.2p yesterday.

Vodafone’s poor performance is ‘largely due to depressing full-year results in May, which included disappointing guidance, a poor performance in Germany and a frank assessment of Vodafone’s need to change, by new permanent chief executive Margherita Della Valle’.

Murdock-Smith said since May, the group has made ‘three major announcements, on M&A in the UK and Spain and a national roaming agreement with 1&1 in Germany, but to only muted reception’.

‘Looking ahead to the first half results on 14 November, we worry that the results may raise concerns about the achievability of 2023/24 guidance, while questions linger about longer-term German capex and dividend sustainability,’ he said.

Seeing as the RNS feed still seems ropey here...

See also Trustnet - any portfolio/watchlist charting involving Shell is currently restricted to one day.

Yahoo Finance and Investing.com seem to have ported over "old RDSB" data/history so I assume there's no legal/ethical/regulatory block to doing so.

"Couldn't organise a p155-up in a refinery"...

(not Shell's fault obviously)

will be 3.75826p (due 4/2...or later, depending on platform)

In case the divi. payment date/month is particularly important to anyone it is currently 14 May 2021 (provisional and may be subject to change).

n.m.

So long as you (still) hold them on the 13th (ex-divi date) you will get the dividend.
You could even sell them on the 13th and still get the dividend.

Looked odd to me (Friday) so checked website.
Ex-divi date - 13th
Record date - 14th
