World Fuel Services declares quarterly cash dividend


Quarterly cash dividend is in line with the amount paid over the last seven quarters.



Marine, aviation and land fuel specialist, World Fuel Services Corporation (WFS), has announced that its board of directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share, payable on 6th January 2017 to shareholders of record on 16th December 2016.

The three-monthly dividend is in line with the increase implemented last year, when the company's board of directors boosted the quarterly cash dividend by 60 percent to $0.06 per share, payable on 10th April 2015 to shareholders of record on 20th March 2015. The same cash dividend of $0.06 per share has been paid in every quarter since then.

Prior to the dividend increase, WFS had declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per share in every quarter between 2005 and 2014 - apart from the first, second and third quarters of 2009, when $0.075 per share was paid to shareholders.
