Ian Pollard – Immarsat #ISAT strong positive momentum leads to dividend cut.
Immarsat plc ISAT 2017 saw strong positive momentum, in fact so strong that it intends to reduce the level of annual dividend payments to 20 cents per share to ensure that it has sufficient financial resources. It will stay at that level until the cash flow of the business rebuilds enough to justify an increase. Group revenue for the year to the 31st December grew by 5.4% and EBITDA by 8% but the figures for quarter 4 were far worse with profit after tax down by 51.3% and EBITDA by 26.2%. Strong long term growth is anticipated in mobile satellite communications with mid-single digit % revenue growth expected on average over the next five years. No doubt shareholders will be hoping that this does not lead to further dividend cuts
