Dividend Growth Reflects Randgold’s Profitability
Jersey, Channel Islands (FSCwire) - Since Randgold Resources declared its
maiden dividend for the 2006 financial year, its dividends have increased by 1 900%, says chief financial officer Graham
Shuttleworth in the company’s 2017 annual report. For 2017, the Randgold board has recommended doubling the previous year’s
$1.00 per share to $2.00.
Shuttleworth says the sustained dividend growth validates the business model and reflects the profitability and
financial strength of the company, which at year end had net cash of more than $700 million and no debt. The company
intends to maintain a net cash position of around $500 million to fund new growth opportunities and any surplus capital will be
returned to shareholders.
