ThinkSmart Capital Management Update

 

At the time of announcing the completion of the sale of ThinkSmart’s operations in Australia and New Zealand to FlexiGroup Limited on 31 January 2014, ThinkSmart announced that it expected to pay a special dividend of 3.6 cents per share, return capital of 7.4 cents per share and conduct an on-market buy-back of up to 10% of its shares.

ThinkSmart paid the special dividend on 19 February and announced the buy-back on 20 February 2014. Following feedback from shareholders regarding the proposed return of capital of 7.4 cents per share, ThinkSmart is currently considering its strategic options in respect of the return of capital, including the optimal manner by which to return capital to shareholders. Accordingly, the proposed return of capital of 7.4 cents per share may not proceed at this point in time and shareholder approval will not be sought at the 2014 AGM for the proposed capital return. Any required shareholder approvals will be sought at the appropriate time.
