"Hi@Koeln Im not sure that is quite correct. Hochtief, like us is a shareholder so they only have their own money to buy our shares. CIMIC is not buying the shares, Hochtief is. They would want a divi as much as the next shareholder."
I was referring to share buy backs from CIMC: https://www.cimic.com.au/en/investors/share-buy-back
This money could have been paid to us as dividends instead.
