FRO ex-dividend on 6/8 ($1.50)
Frontline, an oil tanker shipping company, will pay a regular Quarterly dividend of $1.50 on June 26 to holders as of Thursday, June 8. Frontline will announce the tax treatment of this dividend shortly, but it will likely be ~$1/share earning dividend, and ~$0.50/share return of capital dividend. Frontline benefited immensly of the huge rise tanker charter rates over the last few years, thus paying Quarterly dividends between $1.50/share and $5/share.

Correct ex-dividend date is June 8, 2006 not 6/6. The amount stated $1.50 is correct.
