Very good set of results given the environment.

Berkshire Hathaway doesn't pay a dividend.
Apple didn't pay a dividend until recently.
DTB is unlikely to ask shareholders to fund a large Rights Issue [perhaps a "small" Rights Issue e.g. 1:10] despite its growth in deposits. The "retained income" adds to the Tier 1 Shareholders Capital which allows DTB to continue growing its balance sheet.

DTB aint BRK or APPL. Like comparing chips to hay.

Speaking of DTB, not sure if there is a solid strategy they seem to be opening up branches ovyo ovyo. Anyone been around Parklands of late?

They have sooo many unnecesary branches in such a small area!
- a branch at Westgate, then less than 100m away at 9west, a mini branch at the oval, at general mathenge and etc. feels like that’s abit much! That’s not even to mention Aga khan hospital, diamond plaza branches and etc.

DTB is DTB.
APPL and APPL.
BH is BH.

It's not unusual for (profitable) firms not to pay a dividend e.g. Centum until recently.
It's not unusual for profitable growth oriented firms to have a low dividend payout ratio. [Retain cash to fund growth]. DTB has grown quite substantially over the past 3 years and there was talk of (listed) DTB buying more shares in the regional subsidiaries and entering a new market.
