DOMINION FINANCE
Six Months’ Profit Up
Tax-paid profit of Dominion Finance Holdings, Christ-church-based finance group, for the six months to July 31 was £15,959.
This is shown in an interim report released yesterday, but the result is still subject to audit.
Interim ordinary dividend is 4 per cent. Last year’s interim was 6 per cent and a final 6j per cent made 12 j per cent for the year. In the corresponding six months of last year tax- paid profit was £13,841. Dominion Finance changed its name from Cash Order Purchases in January this year.
In August last year the company made a one-for-five cash issue at 5s premium, but the new shares ranked for dividend only for the last three months of the year. Shares from a one-for-five bonus issue made in January qualify for dividend for the first time in the latest half year.
