Q&A:
- Why do company dividends franked by differing amounts? As an example, we sometimes see 100% franking, 50% franking, with other dividends not franked at all?
This largely depends on where the profits have come from. Some profits come from trusts and therefore pay no tax, some come from overseas and also pay no Australian tax. In addition, some companies might have losses to offset against profits and therefore don’t pay tax at certain times.
- How do stock buybacks affect the dividend yield and thus the strategy
A stock buyback reduces the number of shares on issue. Therefore, if a company pays $1bn a year in dividends in total, but the number of shares has been reduced through buybacks, the dividend per share would be higher. The dividend yield would also be higher.
