So i presume they lend this money out.
Does this indicate that they have more borrowers than depositors funds and if so why didn't they have a much larger bond issue.

Here is the summary of the article from 'kanganews'.
http://www.kanganews.com/news/6638-h...small-tier-two
"Friday, 31 March 2017 Updated"
"New Zealand’s Heartland Bank (Heartland) (BBB from Fitch Ratings, with an expected issue rating of BBB-) placed a tier-two transaction in the Australian dollar market on 31 March. The deal had indicative volume of A$20 million (US$15.3 million) and price guidance of 415 basis points over bank bills for 10-year non-call five tenor."
So it looks like $A20m, or $NZ22.2 with $NZ1- = $A0.9. Of course should the exchange rate fall to $NZ1- = $A0.66, then the size of the bond issue will be $NZ30m ;-P
However, I guess the key term is 'indicative volume'. That would indicate that Heartland might be flexible about the amount of 'tier 2' money they are prepared to accept.

I didn't think my post would be outdated in just ten days. But with the announcement of today's (foreshadowed) capital raising in Australia for 'about $A20m', which at $NZ1= =$A0.909c is equivalent to $NZ22m, it is time to update the Heartland 'capital flow' table.
Financial Year Capital Notes Issued during FY New Shares Issued during FY Total Shares on the Books EOFY Net Money Raised During FY Dividends Paid ROE 2013 0 m 0 m 388.704m $0m $13.951m 7.2% 2014 0 m 75,562 m 463.266m $64.774m $19.930m 8.0% 2015 0 m 6,624 m 469.980m $9.163m $30.188m 9.9% 2016 0 m 6,579 m 476.469m $6.798m $37.690m 10.7% 2017 $22.000m (f) 30.973m+ 512.902+ m $45.277m+ $39.485m (f) tbc Total Cash Raised $22.000m $126.012m + Total Cash Returned $141.244m
(f) indicates forecast result.
The picture this table draws is truly astonishing. If you add up the amount of capital that stakeholders have put into the business over the last five years, it now exceeds the total dividend flow that Heartland has paid out over that same time period!
Put another way, those mother shareholders who put their capital into Heartland probably expected this 'growing baby' to suckle at the parent shareholders' teat, while it built up its strength to prosper as a fully fledged 'grown up' Company. However, this aggressive little Heartland pup clearly did not want to make that break with Mum and Dad shareholder investor. While apparently distributing a generous flow of dividends, the aggressive Heartland jaws subsequently latched back onto those shareholder funds again by way of DRPs and cash issues. And now, from a total stakeholder perspective (including the new Aussie bondholders) those aggressive jaws have not only sucked the stakeholders dry. They have taken a solid bite out of the teat that feeds it!
Plenty here have claimed over the years that Heartland was not 'short of capital'. At one stage even Heartland themselves talked about the possibility of a capital return. However, following a 'look at what I do ' method rather than the 'look at what I say' method of investment, it is now clear what Heartland's true capital appetite was. Heartland have been very clever to raise all of this new capital at what were largely premium prices. Kudos to Heartland management for that. But those stakeholders looking for a 'solid net dividend return' may have to pause for thought.

LOL thanks for the amusement mate. Just a free heads-up for the new financial year starting tomorrow from one hound to another. Nobody cares ! Everyone loves a winner that's growing EPS more than the other banks and so as long as that's happening there's always new teats to suckle on :) All that matters is EPS is growing and their capital adequacy ratio is fine and there liquidity is also fine because if they need more money they simply tweak their deposit rates a bit.Quote:

Nice strike price... some say it is the last time one could get HBL shares at under $1.60 ;)
