Shannon leasing firm pays dividend of €1m per Irish employee to US parent
According to accounts just lodged with the Companies Registration Office, the Shannon firm’s dividend payout of $266m last November follows a dividend of $134m in 2008, resulting in an overall dividend payout of $400m (€326.4m) in two years.
The filings show that the company more than tripled its operating profit to $44m to the end of last December in spite of only marginally increasing the size of its business from $190m to $191m during the year.
