BHPBill to distribute USD2 billion to shareholders BHPBill announced on 15 February 2006 that it would return USD2 billion to shareholders under a capital management programme to be completed within an 18 month period. The programme would be in addition to the US3cps increase in the interim dividend announced. The programme would commence immediately with an off-market buy-back of AUD1.5 billion (USD1.1 billion) of BHPBill shares, with the balance being returned via on-market purchases, most likely of BHP Billiton Plc shares. Final timing and execution of the on-market program will be dependent on an ongoing assessment of market conditions.
