Ayala Corporation pays out a regular annual cash dividend of P4 per share after its Board of Directors approved in 2004 a 33% increase in the regular annual cash dividend rate. This move is a reflection of Ayala’s improved cash flow generation and the continued strength of its fundamentals. In 2006, strong dividend flows from subsidiaries and value realization initiatives enabled the company to declare a special cash dividend of P4 on top of the regular cash dividend, a first in nearly 10 years.
