DIVIDEND POLICY AND PAYMENT

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

The Company’s policy is to pay out an annual dividend of not less than 25 percent of net profit before gains or losses on foreign currency exchange on its consolidated financial statements. Dividend payment is subject to considerations of future investment plans and other applicable factors. However, the Company may consider paying out the annual dividends at a different rate from that policy or not paying out the annual dividends altogether, as the Company’s Board of Directors deems appropriate. After the Board has resolved to pay or not to pay out the annual dividends, it is then subjected to the approval of the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

The Public Limited Company Act B.E. 2535 (PLCA) prohibits public companies from paying out dividends if there is an accumulated loss, even if profits are reported for that financial year. In addition, PLCA and the Articles of Association requires that the Company set provisions of not less than 5 percent of its net profit for the year less any retained loss in reserve until such reserve is at least 10 percent of the registered capital.
