    If they have $70M to return and do so via franked dividends then the shareholder also gets a $30M credit for corporate tax paid, ie $100M in total. The shareprice should decrease by $70M/market cap so there is also a capital loss.

    For a share buyback the $70M buyback should increase the shareprice by $70M/market cap, ie bugger all. That capital gain on that small increase is halved if you have held for >12 months but the benefit i still close to bugger all.

    If franking credits are available then the dividend is always best for an Australian tax payer. If no franking credits then a share buyback is OK.
