Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Olives Property, the paper making and property development group, announced a final dividend of 0.30 net per share for the year ended 31 December 1994. Profit before tax amounted to £623,111 for the same period. The move follows a period without dividends since June 1992.

Thegroup's finances were transformed by a £10.3m rights offer in April. At the end of 1994 shareholder's funds stood at £18.7m, compared with £5.5m in 1993.
Property assets also jumped,from £9.90m at the end of 1993 to £26.48m at 31 December 1994. Annualised gross rental income was up by 201 per cent during the period, to £2.33m.
