I did not realise that they are almost imminent.I would be very surprised if they do not contain decent dividend announcements. I will not be checking the HSBC one at 5 am though.

It's definitely on the cards to be discussed at the Board Meeting - the rns released on the 21 July states, "...and to consider the payment of an interim dividend on the ordinary shares for the 2021 half year." Whether they are 'decent' or not remains to be seen! I for one hope so..
Cheers, OLTB.

Don't worry, I'm sure IanP will have your newspaper ironed and breakfast in bed waiting for you. Yes I hope we see another dividend from HSBA, it's been a let down for me since I switched out some of my SAN prefs a couple years ago - shouldn't have tinkered!

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
OT to investors, but I heard at item on the radio showing HSBC in a good light yesterday.
Apparently, they cooperate closely with the Salvation Army to help victims of (amongst other things) sex trafficking, get back to a normal life again. Without a bank account it is almost impossible for these victims to get back on their feet, and as most of them cannot comply with the usual criteria, Many are trying to tackle a system in their second language and totally diffferent culture and flounder. HSBC relies on vetting by the Sally Army to help process these hard cases, otherwise it just couldn't happen. In the item, they had an interview both with one of the victims and a woman at HSBC who is in charge of the project and it all sounded very civilised, not like the usual hardbitten image of a bank. They are providing an enlightened and crucial service by the sound of it.
A heartwarming tale, and if it costs HSBC something to do this, then I for one am very happy that they spend my profit this way. Naturally, HSBC also has an eye to business, and I've no doubt a percentage of these victims will become loyal customers and contributors to our society.
I realise this, as a subject, is quite OT, so if there is any desire to discuss in detail, we should do so elsewhere.

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
Au contraire Arb, I think your story should be of interest to HYPers as well as others as it shows the general culture of HSBC.

Thanks for that link. It gives a slightly different focus on the same idea from the BBC report yesterday, which featured the role of the Sally Army and one particular woman who was trafficked.
But both emphasise the force for good which can occur from big capitalism plus charity organisations.

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
Barclays' results today seem to be well received and hopefully augurs well.

I had a quick check this morning (not thorough yet, as I'm at work).
From what I can tell (based on dividend received, I haven't looked at the 2019 pps yet) it looks like Barclays are only paying 2/3rds of what they paid at this time in Sep 2019.
Better than nothing, but not a return to pre-pandemic.

Frankly I would be very surprised if the banks suddenly reinstated their dividends to the pre-pandemic levels. I am not expecting that. They will want to be seen to be responsible. See what happens next year.

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
I'm not expecting an immediate return to the previous dividend neither ( although I hope that there might be the odd special in a year or two if the World actually hasn't gone to hell in a Covid handcart and debt write offs are not as bad as feared).

I concur.
Assuming the interim is one-third of the full year, you'd be looking at c. 6p for 2021 compared to 9p that they had announced for 2019 (pre-COVID). They are doing a fair bit on the buyback front, given how weak the share price is compared to net asset value. That seems sensible and will support dividends in future.
Best wishes
Mark.

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
FWIW, the figures in the FT imply that the Barclays interim pay out equates to about 5p a share - this is if the buyback had been a dividend.

Re: Diary dates for Lloyds & HSBC
As noted earlier in this thread, HSBC announces its half year results on Monday. Meanwhile its share price closed last evening in London below £4 for the first time since the end of January. Does not exactly bode well but we'll soon know.
