100p going to be support or is it going to continue down ?
Don’t ask me. I know the yield is 8.8%.
Share Buyback Programme
The Board notes the recent weakness in the Company’s share price and the significant discount that the current share price represents to the value of the Company’s assets. Adjusting for the first interim dividend , the closing price of 99 pence per share (as at 14 February 2024) represents a discount of 26% to the 31 December 2023 NAV.
The Board of the Company keeps its capital allocation policy under regular review, evaluating the relative merits of further investment (into both new and existing assets), the management of debt and returning value to shareholders via dividends or through other methods such as share buybacks. As part of this review, and in the context of addressing what the Board views as the excessive discount at which the Company’s shares currently trade relative to the underlying NAV, the Board announces its intention to commence a share buyback programme. In the first instance it has allocated £20 million for the purchase of its own shares.
Share repurchases will be carried out under the existing shareholder authority granted at the last Annual General Meeting, held on 28 November 2023, which allows for purchases of Ordinary Shares by the Company in the market for up to 14.99% of the Company’s issued share capital. Any share repurchases will be funded from a combination of available liquidity, excess operating cash flows from the portfolio and the proceeds from any asset sales as already announced. It is expected that any share repurchases will be accretive to NAV per share.
The Company expects to announce its interim results for the half year ended 31 December 2023 on Wednesday, 28 February 2024. Until such announcement, the Company remains in a closed period in respect of those results and thus unable to buy its own shares, but the Board intends to commence share buybacks following the release of the interims and while the Company’s shares continue to trade at an excessive discount to NAV.
Dividend Guidance Reaffirmed
Shareholders will be aware that the Board of Bluefield Solar has recently declared a first interim dividend for the current financial year of 2.20 pps and has reiterated its target dividend for the full year of not less than 8.80 pps. This represents a dividend yield of 8.9% based on the closing share price of 99p per share on 14 February 2024. The Company’s operations remain robust, trading conditions are attractive, and the Board expects this year’s dividend to be approximately two times covered.
First off I would like to say superb blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself and
clear your head before writing. I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out.
I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the
first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted just trying
to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips?
Kudos!
