The dividend demonstrates the Board’s confidence in the company’s future ability to generate cash sufficient to fund its operations and future growth. Any future dividend will depend on the company’s capital requirements at the time. The Board of Step One will review its capital requirements at the end of each reporting period. It is intended to return all surplus funds (generated from after tax earnings) to shareholders in the form of a dividend, subject to any such requirements. Future dividends are also intended to be franked to the maximum extent possible.
