Investors can Count on a dividend
Financial services group Count Financial will reward investors with a dividend of 2 cents to be paid on July 15, executive chairman Barry Lambert has confirmed.
In a statement to the Australian Securities Exchange, Count announced that the previously guided annual dividend of 10 cents is expected and the full year earnings before interest and tax will be approximately $34 million, up 17.5 per cent.
The third interim tax dividend will be announced at the Count annual conference, which commences in Brisbane today, and the company will provide a more accurate guidance in its next quarterly report in July.
According to the statement, Count chief executive Marianne Perkovic will advise conference delegates that all segments of the business are performing to expectation and that a strong superannuation year-end is expected.
