Long Term View: ANZ Banking Group Ltd



In this series of posts I am going to be looking at stocks listed on the NZX in relation to their returns to shareholders over the life of their listing -what shareholders would now see in their back pockets if they had invested in the company IPO. The calculation of returns includes dividends and tax credits.

ANZ Banking Group Ltd [ANZ.NZ] has been a stellar investment for shareholders since its September 1969 listing* on the ASX at AU $2 per share and 1988 listing on the NZX. With $19.66c in net dividends, (see NZX chart above and ASX chart here ) and numerous share splits, bonus issues and rights issues; 1:10 bonus issue 1984 ,1:10 bonus issue 1985, 1:5 bonus issue 1986, 1:2 bonus issue 1987, 2:11 rights issue in 2003 (see prospectus) a 2004 capital raising, a 2007 capital raising a convertible preference share issue in 2008 (see prospectus) a public and private capital raising in 2009, gives ANZ an 2100% return (see chart below for the share price percentage gain against the average of all NZX indexes - does not include dividends, tax credits and the share split in its calculation) and over the nearly 41 year listing of ANZ an annual net return of 51.21 %**!.

This is the best return of any stock in the Long Term View series.


* We will look at the full history for this Australian stock that listed in 1969 on the ASX and December 1988 for a New Zealand listing on the NZX.

** For holders of New Zealand listed shares the annual return has been just over 39 % since available data based on a 1996 share price of NZ$7.00. This is approx 400% better than the return from the average of all NZX indexes.

! This compares to a 51.21% return for WBC Bank over 40 years.
