10 Earnings per share<br />
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted<br />
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.<br />
<strong>2010</strong> 2009<br />
Profit attributable to equity holders of the Company (Shs 000s) 531,053 380,362<br />
Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue (thousands) 120,947 114,687<br />
Basic earnings per share (Shs) 4.39 3.32<br />
There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding at 31 December <strong>2010</strong> or 2009. Diluted earnings per share are therefore<br />
the same as basic earnings per share.<br />
11 Dividend per share<br />
Proposed dividends are accounted for as a separate component of equity until they have been ratified at the annual general<br />
meeting. Qualifying shares for <strong>2010</strong> were 148,210,640 shares (2009: 105,864,742 shares). A dividend in respect of qualifying<br />
shares for the year ended 31 December <strong>2010</strong> of Shs 1.25 per share (2009: Shs 1.25) amounting to Shs 185,263,300 (2009: Shs<br />
132,330,928) is to be proposed at the forthcoming annual general meeting.<br />
Payment of dividends is subject to withholding tax at a rate of either 5% or 10% depending on the residence of the respective<br />
shareholders.<br />
