I am quite confident that interim dividen for H1 2024 will see a minimum of 40cts and very likely another 42cts . So we are talking 84 cts dividens to be paid by Aug/Sept this year , or in the next 6 months .
If price stays at current $13 , we are talking $12.16 theoretical ex dividens pricing . 
I doubt we will see $12.16 in Aug . It has to creep up at some point .

OCBC Q4 net profit rises 12% to S$1.62 billion declares S$0.42 final dividend
OCBC&rsquo s net profit for the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2023 gained 12 per cent to S$1.62 billion from S$1.44 billion a year prior, driven by a 2 per cent increase in operating profit as well as lower allowances.
 
The latest profit figure fell short of the S$1.72 billion estimate based on one analyst polled by Bloomberg.
 
On Thursday (Feb 28), the lender reported a net interest income of S$2.46 billion, up 3 per cent from a year ago as average assets grew 4 per cent.
 
Net interest margin (NIM) moderated 2 basis points to 2.29 per cent, which OCBC attributed to higher funding costs that more than offset its increase in asset yields.
 
Non-interest income rose 25 per cent to S$811 million, as net fee income increased 16 per cent year on year due to higher fees from wealth management, credit card and loan-related activities. Net trading income also improved 22 per cent on the back of higher customer flow treasury income, offset in part by a decline in insurance income.
 
The bank&rsquo s non-performing loan ratio as at Dec 31, 2023 was 1 per cent &ndash down 0.2 percentage point from the prior year.
 
Total allowances for the quarter stood at S$187 million, down 41 per cent from S$314 million in the prior year due to a decline in allowances for both impaired and non-impaired assets.
 
The bank declared a final dividend of S$0.42 per share, bringing its total dividend for the full year to S$0.82 per share, up 21 per cent from S$0.68 the prior year.
 
It represents a dividend payout ratio of 53 per cent of the group&rsquo s FY2023 net profit, which was up 27 per cent at S$7.02 billion.
OCBC Q4 profit up 12% to $1.62 billion, to pay final dividend of 42 cents
Super high revenue, profit and higher dividend Yet share prices drop 0.40c (3%).
 
seems so ... DBS set the bar too high ...
it took more than couple of days for UOB to find its base ...

Lol UOB payout ratio 50% investors dump, OCBC payout ratio 53% ( highest on record , same as last year ) investors also dump . 
Blame DBS for settting the bar too high ? 
For the record , OCBC past 3 years dividens as follows :
2023  82cts
2022  68cts
2021  53cts
Things will readjust itself when the dust finally settles .

After subtracting 42cts, FY 2024 div yield based on current price could be about 6.4%. Which is decent enough for me.

Gg liao, fasten seat belt and prepare for the dive
OCBC Full Year 2023 Net Profit
Rose 27% to a Record S$7.02 billion
Fourth quarter net profit up 12% from a year ago to S$1.62 billion
2023 full year dividend raised to 82 cents, up 21% from 68 cents in 2022
Singapore, 28 February 2024 ? Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (?OCBC?) reported net
profit of S$7.02 billion for the financial year 2023 (?FY23?), up 27% from S$5.53 billion a year ago (?FY22?).
Total income for FY23 rose to a new high of S$13.5 billion, lifted by growth across the Group?s diversified
income streams, with net interest income at a record high, and trading and investment income higher. Loan-
related and credit card fees rose, but overall fee income was down as subdued investment sentiments
continued to weigh on wealth-related fees. Continued cost discipline amid an inflationary environment,
combined with income growth, drove the cost-to-income ratio lower to 38.7%. Asset quality was resilient
with NPL ratio of 1.0% and credit costs at 20 basis points. The Group?s strong capital, funding and liquidity
levels provide ample headroom to drive growth and capture opportunities as they arise.
With strong earnings and sound capital position, the Board is pleased to recommend an increase in the final
dividend to 42 cents per share from 40 cents a year ago. This brings the FY23 dividend to 82 cents per
share, up 21% from 68 cents a year ago and represents a payout ratio of 53% of the Group?s FY23 net
profit.

Yes, DBS was far ahead and blew everyone away.  OCBC - 42 cents to 45 cents could be the outcome. But, they may have surplus capital which they want to distribute out.  We will know in 12 hours.  Hope it will be a very pleasant surprise.
