Sino Agro Food Inc (fka SIAF)

[ks1977]

Which means they should have a pretty good idea, now, about cash flow. Perhaps even months ago

They should. Actually, after declaring the cash dividend policy they should have made sure that there will be cash available for the dividend in December. It should be one of their top priorities. If this had been any major company (or minor on a major stock exchange) then we wouldn't have been discussing this

What do you mean, bad wording?

Just that everything, up till the announcement, has said 36.6% whereof 18.3% will be distributed. It would be strange (but not a bombshell - I am not going to say that the speculation is not a possibility, it might make very much sense for TRW) if they did not mention a change from this in the report, the CC and/or the announcement.

Personally I hope that SIAF will NOT take a larger stake in TRW, at least not unless it is paired with a larger repayment so that SIAF has all the money it needs (and then some!) for the next few/many years, and/or that CA has a large and stable net income.
