The company said on Tuesday the final dividend would be paid on Jan 31 next year, when approved by shareholders at its AGM. This was in addition to a single-tier interim dividend of 6 sen per share paid on July 27, 2012.
Scientex said the total dividends of FY12 amounted to 14 sen per share, or a payout of RM30.1mil, which was 36% of Scientex's net profit of RM83.9 million for the year.
Scientex's group net profit rose 8.6% to RM83.9mil while group revenues increased by 9.6%to RM881.0mil, boosted by strong Asia-Pacific export sales experienced by the Group's manufacturing division, and the continued high margins and favourable product mix enjoyed by its property division.
