ENDESA Announces Interim Dividend for 2005
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 16, 2005--At its meeting of 15
November 2005, ENDESA's (NYSE:ELE) Board of Directors has agreed to
pay a gross interim dividend charged against 2005 earnings of Euros
0.305 per share.
This dividend will be paid to ENDESA, S.A. shareholders on 2
January 2006 through the banks and other financial institutions to be
announced at a later date.
As a result, ENDESA shares will go ex-dividend on 2 January 2006.
The amount of the interim dividend implies a 12.1% increase from
the 2004 interim dividend paid in January and is in line with the
commitment announced to the market on 3 October in the document
"ENDESA: Stronger business, greater value."
It is based on ENDESA, S.A's results to 30 September 2005, which
do not include the capital gains generated from the sale of Auna on 8
November 2005. The dividend corresponding to this capital gain will be
agreed once it has been booked by ENDESA, S.A.
