What's an excited me is their dividend declared. Total dividend = 4 cents (3rd interim div) + 8 cents (Special div) = 12 cents div (Single Tier). Unexpected special dividend declared in this quarter as I thought should be 1Q next year 2013. So, for the year 2012 up to 9 months, i.e. 3 quarters, total dividend is 23.8 cents [5.9 (1st interim) + 5.9 (2nd interim) + 4 (3rd interim) + 8 (Special)].
