Record date for Dividends this year were on 3 March and 26 Aug, with the payment date 15 March and 15 Sept. These dates haven't changed more than a few days for years. According to Morningstar, CBA and Austock (the 3 brokers whose accumulated opinions form the Commsec News and Research page on SKI), the dividend next year will be 9.2c per share, and in 2012 9.8c down from 10.5 this year due to dilution of the rights issue. Once the capital works program is complete (that the rights issue was, in part, held to fund), the dividends should bump up though. Not cluey enough to know more than that, but recall someone a few weeks back posting some possible dividend figures in a few years time that were very attractive.
