So not only does my claim of 25/11/2013 of Heartland being short of capital stand. It has proven to have been true!...
I am reminded of the story of the scientist who teaches a spider to jump on command.
He presents it to the world, "Jump" he says and the spider jumps.
He then pulls all the legs off the spider and says "Jump".
The spider does not move.
"I have just proved" says the scientist, "that a spiders ears are attached to their legs"

You worked out the fallacy of a DRIP being new capital yet ?

IMO this makes this whole discussion of HBL having excess capital moot. The true picture is quite the contrary. Heartland freely issue new capital with their acquisitions, and there is no plan on the table to reduce overall capital on the books...
If the capital management happens and the actual details are announced then you may or may not be able to use it in evidence for your 'beliefs'.
The bonds would be Tier 2 capital by the way.
Anyway I am off round to percy's house to complain about him setting the dogs howling.
I may knock the head off his favourite garden gnome if he does not promise to mend his ways.

and $28.3M from the 'very fully stretched balance sheet'.
Not sure of your point PT. Heartland issued new shares and borrowed money to make an acquisition. They used the new shares issued as collateral to borrow money to complete the purchase. Perfectly normal behaviour. Are you suggesting the Seniors Purchase could (should) have been fully debt funded?
As for the 'new' capital raised by the dividend reinvestment plan - I laugh in your general direction.
Granted the new capital from the DRP is peanuts in the scheme of things. But many peanuts eventually add up to a bag of peanuts. The purpose of a DRP is to raise capital is it not?
The 'fallacy' of the DRP deing new capital is explained under note 14 of the FY20145 financial statements. The $6.624m of new capital added to the books in FY2015 looks real to me.

If the bonds are Tier 2 capital, that just means they have a higher discount factor when the overall capital of the company is considered.
'X' Tier 1 capital or 'X+20% (say)' Tier 2 capital? It makes no difference to the point.

My apologies.......lol.
And thank you for your sterling efforts.
Whatever way we look at things ANZ,WBC,etc are having to go back to shareholders for more capital,while HBL have the capacity to return capital to us shareholders.

Sorry for changing the discussion but does there not seem to be a pattern forming of continued top up of shares for sale at 122?

My point is that your point that percy's point that your earlier point that Heartland were capitally challenged, was incorrect, was not incorrect and proven by later capital actions, was incorrect on a number points.

You keep repeating this percy, but it does it actually mean anything?
ANZ et al have completely different "capital" structures and thus equity ratios. If Heartland had a similar structure they could will be 'going back to shareholders' as well
and when you think about it aren't Heartland heading down the path of having a capital structure like ANZ and the others?
