BNZ Fin. buoyant
BNZ Finance — in which the State-owned Bank of New Zealand has a majorityshare — earned a net profit of $1,758,000 in the six months to the end of September, 72 per cent higher than the interim figure last year, the chairman (Sir George Chapman) said in a statement yesterday.
Tax for the six months was $20,060,000 ($937,000). Total shareholders’ funds after the issue were at SIB.BM, and assets were $294M.
An unchanged interim dividend of 4.25 c a share taxfree will be paid, Sir George said. Shares arising from the most recent cash issue do not qualify, but will for future dividends.
