The Group’s total revenue for the year, including treasury income and its share of the revenues of JVs engaged in toll roads, power plant operations and property development, amounted to HK$9,235 million, 48% more than the previous year’s figure. The significant increase in revenue of the Group was principally due to the continued growth of investment property business together with the sales recognition of The Avenue Phase 2, which offset decreased electricity sales of Heyuan Power Plant, treasury income and hospitality business’ revenue. The Group’s EBIT before redevelopment gain and completion gain rose by 6% year-on-year to HK$1,944 million. This is mainly due to the continued growth of investment properties business and profit shared from residential property sales of The Avenue Phase 2, which were partly offset by an exchange loss due to RMB depreciation together with drops in treasury income, decreased electricity sales of Heyuan Power Plant and hospitality business. In the absence of redevelopment gain and completion gain, which were recorded in the previous year, the Group’s basic earnings per share amounted to HK$3.17, a 2% decrease on the previous year’s HK$3.25. Final Dividend The Board has proposed a final cash dividend of HK75 cents per share for the year ended 30 June 2016. Together with an interim cash dividend of HK55 cents per share paid on 22 March 2016, the total cash dividends for the year will amount to HK130 cents per share. This represents an increase of 8% on the last financial year’s total cash dividends of HK120 cents per share, and represents a payout ratio of 80% of the Company’s core profit (excluding the fair value gain of completed investment properties). Subject to shareholders’ approval at the 2016 Annual General Meeting to be held on Wednesday, 26 October 2016, the proposed final cash dividend will be paid on Tuesday, 8 November 2016 to shareholders who are registered at the close of business on Tuesday, 1 November 2016.
