Subject: [Leica] Leica pays a dividend to stockholders.....

There are 16.5Million Leica shares ( does this include shares held in the 
company treasury and still to be offered?)

 

They just announced a dividend increase?.

 

??.The Board proposes the payment of a dividend in the amount of ?1.83 gross 
per share for fiscal year 2011/2012, which ended on 31 March 2012. For 
fiscal year 2010/2011, the corporation paid a dividend in the amount of 
?0.30 gross per share.?

 

If you do the numbers, I think all the investors have just been repaid their 
initial investments.

 

So now you know why Leica prices have increased?. And it has nothing to do 
with manufacturing.
