SYDNEY--Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd. (CCL.AU) on Thursday said it would
use proceeds from the sale of its SPC fruit and vegetable
processing business to pay a special dividend to shareholders.
The soft drinks maker reported a net profit of 168.0 million
Australian dollars (US$114 million), up 6.3% on a year ago.
However, earnings from continuing operations fell by 3.9% to
A$173.3 million, which management said was in line with its
expectations.
Coca-Cola Amatil said it would pay a special dividend of 4.0
cents per share after raising A$40 million proceeds from the sale
of SPC. That is on top of an interim dividend of 21.0 cents a
share.
SPC was purchased by Shepparton Partners Collective, a joint
venture between investment firms Perma Funds Management and the
Eights. The deal completed on June 28.
Coca-Cola Amatil, which has been struggling with weaker consumer
demand for its staple carbonated sugary beverages, had in recent
years invested A$78 million in the SPC unit. The government of
Australia's southern state of Victoria also invested A$22
million.
