I jus took a look at their half year results:

Gross Turnover up by 10%,PBT up by 9%,interim dividend same as last year 4.50/=,EPS up to 8.58 from 7.90 last year. Fairly 'flat' results,looking at the PBT but I am impressed by their decision to stick to their dividend policy.You surely cant go wrong especially for long term investors.My two cents. Whats your take?

In 2009,a flat result is a great result. And the profits were +9% which is all the sweeter. So far EA Cables and BAT have shown profit growth despite turnover losses.
