Since year end the Board has considered the group’s needs for cash to fund growth and resolved to increase dividends with the payment of a final 2019 dividend of 0.5 cents per share, fully franked based on tax paid at 27.5%. As the Board resolution regarding dividends was made after 30 June 2019, the dividend will be paid from retained earnings but is not recognised as a liability in the financial statements at year end.

Dividend Reinvestment Plans

During the period LaserBond Limited had a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) in operation. Under the DRP shareholders may elect to have dividends on some or all of their ordinary shares automatically reinvested in additional LaserBond shares, at a discount to the market price. Full details of the operation of the DRP are contained in the Terms and Conditions available on the LaserBond website: http://www.laserbond.com.au/investor-relations.html.

The Board has resolved to offer the DRP for the 2019 Final Dividend. The discount applied to determine the Market Price in accordance with the DRP Terms and Conditions will be 5%.

In order to participate in the DRP for this dividend, shareholders that have not already done so must return a completed DRP Application Form to arrive at the share registry (Boardroom Pty Ltd) by 13[th] September 2019. The form will be mailed shortly to all shareholders that have not already submitted a completed form. The form is also available on our website: http://www.laserbond.com.au/investor-relations.html. Shareholders that have already returned the form need not complete another, unless a change in the level of participation is being requested.
