Transpower to pay special dividend

Transpower to pay special dividend

Transpower announced today that it would pay a special dividend to its shareholder of $65.7 million on 28 June 2013.

Transpower’s Chairman Mark Verbiest said the special dividend is a result of the successful sale of Transpower’s Sydney-based subsidiary company d-cyphaTrade Limited.

“As d-cyphaTrade and its future development opportunities were not core business for Transpower, it was sold late last month to ASX Limited for $A55 million.” “We are pleased to be able to provide an additional financial return to our shareholder following what has been a very successful development of d-cyphaTrade from a start-up 11 years ago.

“This special dividend is in addition to our regular dividends,” he said.
