Background/Description of the Disclosure
The Board of Directors of DMCI Holdings, Inc. (PSE: DMC) today approved a special cash dividend of P0.72 per common share for its shareholders on record as of October 24, 2023.
Ex-dividend date is marked for October 23, 2023 while the dividend distribution has been set for November 9, 2023.
This new declaration follows DMCI Holdings’ April dividend payout, where eligible shareholders received a total of P0.72 per common share representing regular (P0.61) and special (P0.11) cash dividends.
With the recent Board approval, DMC’s cumulative dividend payout for 2023 is at P1.44 per share, a 20-percent increase from the P1.20 in total dividends distributed the prior year.
Based on its October 10 closing price of P10.80, DMC’s total dividend translates to a cash dividend yield of 13 percent.
In all, DMC will end the year with P19.1 billion in dividend payments to its shareholders, its highest total payout ever. The amount represents 61 percent of the company’s consolidated core net income in 2022.
DMCI Holdings has a dividend policy that commits to a dividend payout ratio of at least 25 percent of the preceding year's consolidated core net income.
