Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>MTN Rwanda\u2019s Board of Directors has approved a recommendation for a dividend payout of Rwf5,724,860,000 to shareholders.<\/p>\n

The development is subject to approval by shareholders at the next Annual General Meeting.<\/p>\n

The payout will be approximately Rwf4.24 per share.<\/p>\n

\u201cSubject to Shareholder approval, the Dividend will be paid out on 3 July 2024, to those shareholders recorded in the Share Register as of 7 June 2024,\u201d reads part of the resolutions.<\/p>\n

The development comes at a time when the telco is experiencing slow growth in its financial performance.<\/p>\n

MTN Rwandacell Plc\u2019s net earnings dropped significantly by 28.9 per cent to Rwf11.4 billion in 2023, despite an 11 per cent increase in service revenue to Rwf246.5 billion and a 6.5 per cent year-on-year growth in subscriber base.<\/p>\n

The company blamed the decline on higher finance costs related to tower leases and a depreciation of the Rwandan franc, which the company said is affecting their foreign obligations.<\/p>\n
