Dividends Put This Deal-Making Junior
Dividends put this deal-making junior Centrex Metals Ltd (ASX:CXM) is a rarity. In the junior resources sector, where profits are scarce and dividends even more scarce, Centrex has delivered two special fully franked dividends to shareholders in the past 12 months. The second special dividend of 5 cents a share, delivered last month, follows an announcement by the company in late 2012 of its intention to review its capital management strategy with the aim of solving advanced project development funding requirements through dilution, in return for foreign investment. To this end, the company already has three Chinese backed joint ventures in place over iron ore and base metal projects. The strategy is a major departure from the generally accepted resources development model that often does not see significant returns to shareholders until an asset moves through the development phase and into production, an often-lengthy timeline. The Centrex development model involves the company funding projects from acquisition and through early Drilling at Centrex’s Fusion Project. exploration itself, before seeking foreign investment in return for project equity to fund advanced development toward becoming a shareholder in a selection of diversified mining through a joint venture. projects.
