Welkom Yizani
Welkom Yizani is a black empowerment share scheme launched by Media24 in September 2006.[3] This scheme owns 15% of Media24, a subsidiary of Naspers Ltd. Media24 received R1.4 billion after the unbundeling of Novus Holdings in 2017. At the Media24/Welkom Yizani annual general meeting it was announced that shareholders will receive a special cash dividend of not less than R14.79 per Welkom Yizani ordinary share. In addition, the board declared an ordinary dividend of 42.5 cents per share.[4]
Criticism
16 March 2018 Media24 agreed to pay R14 million as a settlement agreement with the Competition Commission after admitting to price fixing and fixing of trade conditions in the media industry.[5]
