TEE's scrip dividend scheme has 2 big benefits

More convenient re-investment, improves capital retention.

Tee International has announced that its scrip dividend scheme will apply to the final tax-exempt (one-tier) dividend of 2.5 S-cents per ordinary share for the financial year ended 31 May 2013.

According to OCBC, the company's management said the price for the new shares issued under the scheme will be set at not more than a 10% discount, nor shall it exceed the average of the last traded prices for the period between 9 Oct 2013 and 11 Oct 2013 (both dates included).

"We believe this scrip dividend scheme allows shareholders who are looking to re-invest dividends into the counter to do so conveniently, and also enable the group to retain such capital for allocation into future opportunities," said OCBC.
