Attn: The President of the Stock Exchange of Thailand
Subject: Clarification on Baht 2 per share's EGCOMP dividend payment
According to the news in the Manager newspaper and the Nation on December 28, 2000
stated that Electricitiy Generating Public Company Limited (EGCOMP) expects to pay
a dividend of Bath 2 per share, EGCOMP would like to clarify that presently, EGCOMP
does not announce its operating result and does not have the Board Meeting and the
Annual General Meeting on allocating its profit for dividend. Thus, the aforesaid
news is untrue.
However, EGCOMP understands that the news is on the speculation of analysts base on
information that EGCOMP has firm revenue from the 20 year-power purchase agreement
with Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT). Therefore, they calculate
from the average of 3 Quarter EGCOMP's performance which EGCOMP has announced the
profit per share of Baht 2.95. Moreover, EGCOMP's operating result shall be concerned
with the effect of exchange rate as well.
Yours sincerely
Machima Kunjara Na Ayudhya
