| What is ex-date (XD)? |
|
When shares trade ex-date, this means that any shares purchased on or after this date are not entitled to dividends, capital reductions or distributions announced but not paid out before this date. Investors who want to receive the dividends, capital reductions or distributions must hold or purchase shares before the ex-date for their names to appear in the register.
For example, if Sembcorp Industries announces a dividend with an ex-date of January 1, only investors who hold Sembcorp Industries shares by December 31 will be entitled to the dividend. Those who sell their shares on January 1 will still be entitled to the dividend. Those who buy shares on January 1 are not entitled to the dividend.

| What is your dividend payout rate? |
|
| Management’s target is to distribute approximately 50% to 60% of earnings as dividends. However, in order to deliver sustainable shareholder value, one must maintain a long-term view of allocation decisions. That is, while returning a portion of earnings to shareholders via dividends may be important, it is equally critical to retain some earnings to fund future growth. |
