Buyback Not Prudent for RUL Considering that the top 20 holders control 64.5% of shares (based on the last notice).
Instead, the company should focus on:
Controlled Dividend Increase: A gradual increase in dividends would be a more effective way to reward shareholders.Diversification and Growth: Pursuing acquisitions or increasing marketing and sales spend could promote diversification and organic growth.
A buyback in this situation raises concerns:
Unnecessary Share Price Increase: Pumping the share price may not be beneficial when the top shareholders already hold a significant majority.
Premium PE Acquisition: Buying back shares at a premium PE of 62 isn't a smart financial move in my opinion.
