"Final and special dividends
ASX’s diversified business model delivers attractive earnings
across different business cycles without compromising our
commitment to operating markets of high quality.
We determined a final dividend of 114.3 cents per share (cps), a
rise of 4.8%, bringing total ordinary dividends (interim and final)
for FY19 to 228.7 cps, up 5.7% on the previous year. Our dividends
remain 100% franked and we have continued to pay out 90% of
underlying profit in dividends.
In addition, ASX is paying a special dividend of 129.1 cps, also fully
franked, from the proceeds of the sale of our shareholding in
IRESS in February 2019. While the bulk of the funds from the sale
are being returned to shareholders, we will retain a portion to
support our growth strategy"
