Port of Auckland ramps dividend to $52m on record result
Country's second busiest port recorded its highest annual volume since the pandemic, while a million tonnes of coal for Huntly also boosted the coffers.
The ratcheting up of pricing and getting back to pre-pandemic volumes has paid dividends for the Auckland Council, which will receive a full year dividend of $52 million from the Port of Auckland, up on last year's $40m stipend.
That comes on the back of its top net profit after tax (npat) of $90.8m
