Likely a buyback will be out of the question... the company will still have retained profits that need clearing via dividends if they sell the project. A buy back won't enable big cgt discount amounts and not ordinary income... yes it can at times, but, practically won't be the case here.There’s a lot of confusion floating around, so let’s be clear: there will be no re-listing. AVZ is headed toward a final resolution — not a return to trading.
And there absolutely should not be a dividend, franked or otherwise. That would treat the payout as income, not capital, and shareholders would get hammered at their marginal tax rates.
What needs to happen is either:
• a share buyback, or
• a formal liquidation with a capital distribution.
Both of these would trigger a CGT event, allowing eligible long-term holders to access the CGT discount. That’s the correct structure — anything else risks handing a large chunk of the return straight to the Australian government who frankly have done fuck all to support us.
Cgt discount will likely only be available on some company paying us cash for our avz shares or script for script...(the sell those shares eventually).
Anything above $226m will be dividends most likely... (under a buy back scenario)
