Reckitt派特別息16億鎊回饋股東




Reckitt Benckiser將向股東派發16億英鎊特別股息

英國消費品巨頭Reckitt Benckiser(簡稱RKT)於本週三宣布,計劃在完成Essential Home業務出售予Advent International後,通過派發約16億英鎊的特別股息回饋股東。

公司將於2026年1月30日晚上6時(英國時間)登記在冊的股東,每股派發235便士特別股息,預計於2026年2月20日支付予股東,持有美國存托憑證(ADR)的股東則於2月27日起獲得派息。

除派發特別股息外,Reckitt同時計劃進行24股合併為25股的股份合併行動,以配合派息後市值的相應調整,確保每股股價維持在接近派息前的水平。公司已發布相關通函,並將於2026年1月27日在倫敦Slaughter and May召開股東大會,尋求股東批准此項安排。

Reckitt強調,這次特別股息是在其持續進行的股份回購計劃及普通股息政策之外的額外回饋。股份合併將保持每位股東的持股比例不變,惟因股份合併產生的零碎股份將被統一出售,所得款項若低於5英鎊,將捐贈予英國紅十字會。

此公告緊隨公司於2025年12月31日確認完成Essential Home業務出售後發出,標誌著Reckitt在重組業務、聚焦核心消費品領域的策略又向前邁出一步。

評論與啟示

Reckitt Benckiser此次大手筆派發16億英鎊特別股息,展現出公司通過業務剝離釋放資金、回饋股東的決心,亦反映其財務狀況穩健,有能力在保持正常運營和投資的同時,給予股東豐厚回報。股份合併的安排則是為了避免派息後股價大幅下跌,對股東利益進行保護,體現出管理層在資本結構管理上的謹慎與周全。

這種策略對於股東來說是一個利好,特別是在市場波動性加劇、投資者越來越關注現金回報的環境下,特別股息和股份回購無疑能提升股東信心。同時,將零碎股份收益捐贈給慈善機構,也展示了企業社會責任的良好形象。

不過,長遠來看,Reckitt需要確保剝離非核心業務後,核心業務能夠持續增長並保持競爭力,才能支持未來的股息政策和資本回報。投資者亦應關注公司未來的業務發展策略及市場表現,避免只被短期現金流誘惑而忽略基本面變化。

總結來說,Reckitt Benckiser這次的資本運作既是對過去業務調整的肯定,也為股東帶來了實質利益,未來在核心業務和市場競爭中能否保持優勢,將是公司持續成長的關鍵。對香港投資者而言,這類英資大型消費品企業的穩健回報和成熟管理策略,仍具一定吸引力。

Create a hyper-realistic 8K close-up body portrait of a female model, using the uploaded photo as the exact facial reference. Maintain 100% accuracy of the facial features — do not alter or modify any aspect of the face. Render the skin texture, lighting, and overall composition with photo-realistic detail, ensuring lifelike color tones and natural depth of field. A man with his original hair is sitting casually on a white cube, smiling warmly at the camera. He is wearing a cream-colored cable-knit sweater, blue jeans, and brown loafers. His legs are crossed, with one hand resting on his knee.
The background reveals a cozy and festive living room. A large, beautifully decorated Christmas tree with numerous warm lights and gold ornaments stands prominently behind him. Several wrapped gift boxes are visible at the base of the tree. To his left, another smaller decorated Christmas tree and a wreath on the wall further enhance the holiday atmosphere. The lighting is soft and inviting, creating a warm and welcoming scene. Create a sticker set maintaining 100% of the woman's original facial features from the provided image. Do not alter the face, focusing on ultra-realistic details of the facial structure, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and expression. The final face must be realistic, not cartoon-like. She has long, voluminous hair.
1. Makeup:Maintain Original Face: We will preserve the structure of your face, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and expression as closely as possible to the original image to maintain naturalness and uniqueness, while adjusting the tone to be softer:

Eyes: Slightly reduce the sharpness of the Cat Eye eyeliner to a thin line close to the lash line for a softer look, while still maintaining eye definition.
Eyeshadow: Use natural tones like light brown, peach, or beige.
Eyebrows: Original shape, but brushed up to look softer and more natural.
Lips: Glossy, pink-tinted, nude-pink, or coral-toned lipstick/tint to make the lips look full and moisturized. Focus on a bright but not overly intense look.
2. Hairstyle:Natural Voluminous Long Hair: Her hair is long and flowing, but the styling will emphasize natural volume and movement. Soft, natural waves.
3. Outfit:

Attire: A white open-back bodysuit paired with distressed, faded blue denim shorts. There is a message "Kunika" on the shirt.
Shoes: Elegant, simple open-toe flat sandals.
Accessories: Styled freely and fittingly for each scene.
4. Poses & Sticker Elements:Poses: Various poses such as waving, jumping, walking playfully, reading a book, holding up a sign, cheering with both hands, stretching, or making a celebratory gesture, to create a cheerful and friendly atmosphere.Decoration: Include elements like small rainbows, sparkling stars, clear bubbles, hearts, balloons, or light-colored dots to decorate and enhance the fun of each sticker scene.Style: Thin black border around the sticker. Use a modern, rounded 'Itim' style font for the text.Text: Add short emotional phrases written in a cute, beautiful script near the sticker (no speech bubbles/text boxes):

"Hello"
"Love you"
"Submitting work"
"Great"
"Got it"
"Thanks!"
"Wait a sec"
"Ready to care"
"Fight"
"Let's do it"
"So cute"
"OK"
"Sweet dreams:
"Get well soon"
"555"
"You're welcome"
"HBD" 
"OMG" 
"Sorry"
"Got a headache" 
Guidelines: Do not include a text box. Ensure balanced composition with sufficient white space—not cluttered. Match the pose to the text.
Emphasis: Reiterate 'maintain 100% of the original face features from the provided image,' 'ultra-realistic facial detail,' and 'professional studio lighting on face (realistic face, not cartoon face).

Use Cantonese in the stickers. Create an image that captures a person working on a laptop while sitting on a wooden beach chair on a sandy beach.
Here are some key details:
Subject: A man uploaded photo wearing a light-colored, long-sleeved shirt open botten (possibly linen or a light denim), dark shorts. He is focused intently on the screen and keyboard of his silver laptop.
Setting: The scene is set on a beach during sunset or sunrise, indicated by the warm, golden light and the long shadows. There is a palm tree towering over the person, and its fronds are visible against the bright sky. The ocean is in the background.
Atmosphere: The overall mood is one of a "digital nomad" or someone enjoying the flexibility of working remotely in a beautiful, relaxed, and warm location. The lighting creates a very aesthetic and aspirational feel.
Foreground Detail: To the left of the chair, there's a wooden crate or small table where a portion of a coconut appears to be resting.
The photo effectively contrasts the intensity of work with the serene,
