Insights

OET declares a sizable Q4 2025 cash dividend with staggered settlement across exchanges.

Okeanis Eco Tankers is returning cash via a Q4 2025 dividend of USD 1.55 per common share. This signals that recent tanker earnings have translated into distributable cash, and the board is comfortable committing to a meaningful payout per share.

The filing details different settlement cycles: T+1 on the NYSE and T+2 on the Oslo Stock Exchange, creating distinct ex-dividend dates while keeping a single record date on March 3, 2026. This structure helps prevent confusion around which trades qualify for the dividend on each venue.

Holders in the Euronext VPS receive the same underlying dividend, converted and paid in NOK, but settlement under Norway’s CSDR means cash is expected to reach those accounts around March 13, 2026, a few days after the main March 10, 2026 payment date.
