Seven property stocks pay interim dividends before XD dates of 25-28 August
An analyst at Asia Plus Securities said 14 residential developers posted second-quarter 2026 normalised profit of 5.88 billion baht, recovering 75 percent from the previous quarter and rising 16 percent from the same period last year. This marks the first return to year-on-year growth in 12 quarters. Seven companies, namely SPALI, QH, LPN, SC, SIRI, PSH and LALIN, announced interim dividend payments for the first half of 2026, offering average yields of more than 2 to 3 percent, except PSH and QH, which average more than 1 percent. They will go ex-dividend this week between 25 and 28 August 2026. The analyst recommends a market-weight stance, selecting SC and SIRI as top picks to accumulate before the XD dates to capture dividends of around 3 percent, and expects second-half 2026 profit to be better than the first half, when normalised profit was 9.25 billion baht, up 9 percent from the same period last year. Meanwhile, AP pays dividends only once a year but offers a yield above 6 percent per year, and its profit is expected to stand out more in the second half of 2026.
