Bloomberry Resorts’s board will target annual cash dividends of 35 per cent of the prior year’s earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Philippines.- Casino operator\u00a0Bloomberry has announced that its board of directors has approved a new dividend policy. The policy aims to distribute annual cash dividends of 35 per cent of the previous year’s audited consolidated earnings per share. The cash dividend will be taken from the company’s unrestricted retained earnings as required by law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the recommendation from management, the board of directors will decide the amount and timing of the cash dividends. The company will also consider any contractual restrictions on dividend payments imposed by existing and future debt facilities and other relevant factors determined by management and the board of directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In deciding the amount of cash dividends, the company said its board of directors will consider its current and future business performance, economic conditions, development pipeline, cash flows, and financial position. The board of directors said it approved the policy “to further enhance shareholder value” following the growth of the company’s business with the opening of Solaire Resort North<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The casino operator expects Solaire Resort North to increase the group’s cash flows as it ramps up in the coming quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
