PTT's board approved an interim dividend of THB 1.40 per share (about THB 39.7bn, roughly 51% of net profit for Jan-Jun 2026). Ex-date is 7 Oct, record date 8 Oct, payment 22 Oct. Only the THB 0.91 portion gets the personal-shareholder dividend tax credit; the THB 0.49 portion, paid from PTTEP dividend income, does not. The company will also sell up to 238.66m buyback shares on SET from 28 Sep to 12 Oct at no less than 85% of the 5-day average close. Relevant only if you hold PTT shares; otherwise background for energy-sector sentiment.
