Pengana’s international ethical LIC declares its first quarterly fully-franked dividend against market backdrop of falling dividends

The Board of the ASX’s largest international ethical LIC, Pengana International Equities Limited (ASX: PIA), today declared a quarterly, fully-franked dividend of 1.25 cents per share, to be paid on 22 January, 2021 to shareholders who are recorded on the Company’s register on a record date of 7 January, 2021.

This dividend announcement follows 2 major updates to the Company’s investment mandate over the course of 2020, to target fully franked dividends for shareholders, as well as pay these dividends on a quarterly basis.

“PIA’s corporate structure, ungeared balance sheet and investment strategy place PIA in a unique position to deliver a reliable stream of franked dividends and capital growth,” Chairman Frank Gooch said.

“We are keenly aware of the importance our shareholders place on stable, fully-franked dividends. The increased frequency of dividend payments will assist our shareholders to manage their cash flow needs in an environment where income is becoming harder to achieve.”
