We expect our investments in 2012 to continue to positively impact results.”
Mr. Kwok concluded, “The Board’s decision to increase the dividend for the seventh time since going public highlights SeaCube’s strong and stable cash flows. SeaCube has now increased its dividend 50% since the IPO in October 2010 for a cumulative payout of $2.25 per share.
