Dividend Policy and Payment
Dividend Policy:
We expect to declare and pay annual Dividends of not less than 75% of our PAT after MI in respect of any year. However, in considering the level of Dividend payments, we take into account various factors including:
- the level of our available cash and cash equivalents;
- return on equity and retained earnings; and
- our projected levels of capital expenditure and other investment plans.
