What $1,000 Buys You Today

The figures below are illustrative estimates only. They are based on the most recently available share or unit price at the time of writing and the dividend or distribution amount shown in the table above. Actual outcomes will differ depending on the price paid, the timing of purchase relative to the ex-dividend date, market movements, and whether the dividend is ultimately confirmed and paid in full. This article is general information only and is not financial product advice.

At a recent price of AUD 0.69, a AUD 1,000 investment would buy approximately 1,449 shares ahead of the 12 Aug 2026 ex-dividend date. Against the declared Interim Dividend of $0.005 per share/unit, that produces an estimated cash dividend of AUD 7.25. The dividend is 100% franked, adding an estimated franking credit of AUD 3.11 for eligible shareholders, taking the grossed-up value to around AUD 10.36.

Franking Credits Explained

The dividend is fully franked, meaning Australian company tax has already been paid on the underlying profit, so eligible resident shareholders may claim a further credit on top of the cash amount.

What Investors Should Consider

  • To receive this dividend, shares generally need to be purchased before the ex-dividend date, not the pay date.
  • Share or unit prices move continuously, so the number a AUD 1,000 investment buys today will differ from another day.
  • Dividend or distribution amounts, franking levels and pay dates can be revised by the issuer up until payment.
  • Activist and concentrated portfolios like Sandon's can be more volatile than a broadly diversified fund, and returns can depend heavily on the success of individual engagement campaigns.

Wrapping Up

On these estimates, a AUD 1,000 investment in Sandon Capital Investments Ltd made today would generate an estimated cash dividend of around AUD 7.25, or roughly AUD 10.36 once the estimated franking credit is added. As with any single dividend, this figure is only a snapshot; investors would typically also weigh the company's dividend history, franking consistency, and how the holding fits their broader portfolio and tax position before treating any one payment as representative.
