RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:BTE assets sales The dividend was initiated as part of the Ranger purchase, I think it was actually the same as the old Ranger dividend. Anyway, lots of other things going on with that than just the institution of the dividend.
I have not idea if the dividend itself helped or hindered the SP, but no denying the SP went down. However, the boat has sailed on whether to have a dividend or not. I expect the next dividend change - not for a long time - would be an increase.
