The special cash dividend comes on the heels of a much improved profit picture for the current year. Despite the lackluster business environment and anemic loan demand, the bank posted a stronger bottomline this year owing to the operating synergies it has begun to realize from its merger with Far East  Bank & Trust Co. in April of last year.
