Carreras has declared a big payday for its investors.
The cigarette distributor says it will pay its shareholders a dividend of 1 dollar 30 cents per share, on March 15.
The dividend means the company has committed to paying out a total of 631 millions dollars.
Only those who hold shares in the company on February 21 will qualify for the dividend.
Carreras declared the dividend as it announced that one of its Directors, Alan Davy, has resigned.
The company said the Board has appointed Nicholas Hales in his stead.
The appointment took effect on February 7.
