$MPW (+0,24 %) Last night, the dividend for the current quarter. 0,08$ for each share held on September 9. This is based on the bank's covenants, which were renegotiated for the further course of the steward bankruptcy. Anyone following this process could already smell the $0.08, as there was friction between the debtors, MPW and Steward this week, which had already been brewing. Yesterday, among other things, there was an emergency meeting of the insolvency court to calm the waters. With regard to the dividend, it should be noted that no adjustment
of the cash allocation strategy has been announced. The final dividend of the year therefore depends on the balance sheet and may be related to a non-cash component if the REIT requirement is not met by a .08 dividend. In the future, the amount of the cash component will continue to depend on the covenants. As soon as these are no longer necessary for Steward, the dividend should return to the generously covered 0.15 of the last quarters.

I am glad that I no longer have anything to do with this share

MPW is a large position in my portfolio. The 50% cut has a regulatory background and not a financial one. The share is currently 37 percent shorted. Of course, the stock is not for the faint-hearted - as André Kostolany would say!

I would take last night's ad hoc as positive, wouldn't you? Downside no more CF from the properties in 2024 and only 50% in 2025. But it looks as if you have fixed a large part of it if the court agrees next Tuesday.

Well, I'm curious about that. The share price is sure to plummet again 🤔

It will be interesting to see whether the share falls back to 3.5$ due to the almost 50% dividend cut
