Casino operator Genting Malaysia Bhd has declared a final single-tier dividend of MYR0.035 (US$0.0097) per MYR0.10 share.
The dividend – for year ending December 31, 2014 – is payable on July 23 to shareholders of record as of June 30.
A filing on Friday said the company’s stock would be trade “ex-dividend” as of June 26.

The mandate would allow purchases to a value not exceeding 10 percent of prevailing issued and paid-up share capital when aggregated with existing treasury shares stated that filing.
