SHAREHOLDER RETURNS
The Group’s priority is to achieve long-term capital growth for
shareholders. The bulk of its profits, when made, shall therefore be
retained for investing in the Group’s future, while an appropriate
dividend will be distributed annually – cash flow permitting - to
reward shareholders.
In 2015, the Directors are pleased to declare a one-tier, tax-exempt
first and final dividend of five cents per ordinary share – amounting to
$4.2 million in dividend payout. This proposed dividend, if approved
by shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting to be
held on 30 April 2016, will be paid out in June 2016.
