Dividend Per Share (S¢)
For the financial year ended 31 March 2020, the Board has recommended a final ordinary dividend of 5.45 Singapore cents a share. Together with the interim dividend of 6.8 Singapore cents, the total ordinary dividend for the year is 12.25 Singapore cents, compared to 17.5 Singapore cents last year.
The reduction in dividend payout is prudent to conserve financial headroom to cope with uncertainties in the current COVID-19 operating environment and the capacity to invest in 5G.
