Since the start of the fourth quarter, a record 103 companies have announced they will pay special dividends before the end of the year, according to Markit. The data firm is forecasting that 123 companies will announce special fourth-quarter dividends, compared to the previous average of just 31. “Barring a last minute congressional extension, it would benefit shareholders if companies declare and pay special dividends prior to the year-end expiration date, says Virgil Calahong, dividend analyst at Markit.
数据公司Markit资料显示,自从进入第四季度以来,已有103家公司宣布将在年底前派发特别股息,这个数字创下了历史纪录。Markit预测,宣布派发特别股息的公司最终将达到123家,而往年的平均数值为31家。Markit股息分析师弗吉尔·凯拉洪(Virgil Calahong)表示:“除非国会在最后一刻决定延续布什减税政策,企业在目前的减税政策于年底到期之前宣布并派发特别股息,对股东们是有利的。
Steve Trager, chief executive of Republic Bancorp, called the uncertainty over tax rates “the tipping point that led his company to declare a special dividend. “We’ve had a great year – four straight record years – [and] our capital levels are extremely healthy, he said. “With this timing issue, I am delighted to do it for shareholders and it has been very well received.
