FCMB Group Plc said it will pay a final dividend of N0.14 for every 50 kobo per ordinary held by its shareholders. The dividend payout follows the release of FCMB Group’s audited financial statement for the full-year ended December 2019.
As Nairametrics reported earlier, FCMB Group’s profit after tax increased by 15.8% to N17.3 billion during the period under review, up from N14.9 billion during the comparable period in 2018.
More on FCMB’s dividend: As always, the dividend payout is subject to appropriate withholding tax, as well as necessary approvals. A public disclosure that was sent to the Nigerian Stock Exchange yesterday, noted that only shareholders whose names appear on the company’s register of members as at April 14th, 2020, will be eligible to receive payment.
The statement went further to disclose that payment to shareholders would be made on Tuesday, April 28th, 2020. However, this is on the proviso that qualified shareholders must have completed the e-dividend registration process, as well as mandated the register to their dividends into their bank accounts.
