| In the financial year 2007, revenue for the Group increased
by 21.5% over the financial year 2006 to US$1,463.8 million. Profit
attributable to shareholders increased by 42.0% to US$182.9 million.
Earnings per share rose 39.5% to US76.6 cents. In light of the continued
increase in profitability, together with the very strong Group balance
sheet, the Board of Directors has proposed a final dividend of US41.0
cents per share. Together with the interim dividend of US9.0 cents
and the special dividend of US30.0 cents made in celebration of the
Group's 30th anniversary, this gives a total dividend for the year
of US80.0 cents per share, 150.0% higher than the US32.0 cents declared
in the financial year 2006. |
