TSMC Common Share Ex-dividend Date July 14th
Hsinchu, Taiwan, R.O.C. June 27, 2014 TSMC (TWSE: 2330, NYSE: TSM) today announced that the ex-dividend date for TSMC common shares shall be July 14th, 2014. The cash dividend is NT$2.99991232 for each common share.
The above-mentioned dividend is calculated based on the dividend distribution, as approved by the Companys shareholder meeting on June 24, 2014, and the actual number of common shares outstanding on the record date for the distribution. As a result of the employee stock options exercised between the day the Companys board proposed said dividend distribution and the record date of the distribution, the total number of outstanding common shares has increased slightly, resulting in a miniscule difference in the per-share dividends from the per-share numbers proposed by the Companys board on February 18th, 2014.
