Keppel Corp Share Price SGX: Charts, Targets, Dividends

Freddie Arthur Davies Carter • 2026-10-26 • Reviewed by Sofia Lindberg

Anyone who has watched Singapore’s blue chips lately has seen Keppel turn from a quiet restructuring story into one of the SGX’s more talked-about re-ratings. The shares closed 2025 at S$10.35, and Keppel’s FY2025 results, released on 4 February 2026, propose a total distribution of about S$0.47 per share — up 38% — which makes the next question worth answering carefully: is Keppel Ltd undervalued, or has the market already paid for the good news?

Latest confirmed close: S$10.95 (4 Feb 2026) · FY2025 New Keppel net profit: ≈S$1.1 billion (+39%) · Proposed total FY2025 distribution: ≈S$0.47 per share (+38%) · Distribution yield at 4 Feb 2026 close: ≈4.3% · FY2025 return on equity: 18.7% · Assets under management: ≈S$95 billion

  • No 2026 consensus target price is published in Keppel’s official FY2025 file; any third-party estimate must carry its date (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • The ex-dividend and payment dates for the proposed final dividend are pending shareholder approval (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • Whether the 2025 re-rating already prices in FY2025 results is a judgment, not a disclosure — the official record shows the S$10.35 year-end close (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review)

  • Keppel intends to pay special dividends of 10%–15% of gross monetisation value per financial year (Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement)

Twelve numbers from the FY2025 file, one pattern: earnings, balance-sheet quality and the shareholder payout all improved in the same year, and the share price followed.

Editor’s note

All prices and distribution figures in this article come from Keppel Ltd’s official FY2025 disclosures — the annual report, the results release and the chairman’s statement — covering to . Live quotes on SGX change by the second, so any third-party “current price” should be checked against its timestamp before you act. This article is information, not personalised investment advice.

What is Keppel Corp’s share price on SGX today?

The honest answer is the one every live-quote page gives: it depends on the timestamp. Keppel Ltd trades on the Singapore Exchange under the ticker BN4, and the most recent official price references in the FY2025 file are S$10.35 at and S$10.95 on , the day results were published (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). Anything labelled “today” in a search engine may be a cached snapshot rather than a live trade.

Why this matters

A quote is only as good as its date. The same stock that closed 2025 at S$10.35 re-rated strongly during the year, so a cached search snippet can be further from the true price than a 24-hour-old official close (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).

Where can I see the live SGX BN4 price?

  • Official closes: Keppel’s FY2025 materials use S$10.35 () and S$10.95 () as reference prices (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).
  • Live ticks: your broker’s trading platform and SGX price feeds are the only true “now” sources; search-engine caches are not.

Keppel Ltd is the SGX-listed entity formerly called Keppel Corporation. Its ticker BN4 is the one to track for the ordinary and special dividends described later in this article. Because intraday quotes move constantly, this guide anchors every price to a dated official disclosure — a habit that matters more for BN4 than for most blue chips, given how quickly the story changed through 2025 (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

  • What date is on the quote? A cached snapshot can be weeks old.
  • Is it in Singapore dollars? BN4 trades in SGD, and currency mix-ups distort yields and targets.
  • Is the company name Keppel Ltd? Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust are separate SGX tickers and often pollute BN4 search results.

How does Keppel’s price history compare with today?

  • : official close S$10.35; gross FY2025 distribution yield ≈4.5% at that price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).
  • : reference close S$10.95 on results day; the ≈S$0.47 total proposed distribution equals ≈4.3% at that price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Earnings backdrop: FY2025 New Keppel net profit ≈S$1.1 billion, up 39%, and recurring income S$941 million, up 21% (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

The FY2025 financial review frames the year as the first full chapter of Keppel’s asset-light strategy, and the official record shows the shares ending 2025 at S$10.35 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review). Users who search for “Keppel share price 2022” are usually looking for the pre-restructuring era; the FY2025 materials lead with current-year numbers, so a 2022 price, if you need one, has to come from a historical data vendor rather than from Keppel’s current report (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

What is the 52-week range for Keppel shares?

  • Official disclosures: no 52-week range is published in the FY2025 file (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).
  • Dated references: S$10.35 () and S$10.95 () are the two official anchors, and both sit in double-digit territory after a strong re-rating (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

That omission is itself useful: an older cached range built when the stock traded lower can mislead a buyer into thinking BN4 is running hot when it is simply no longer the S$7-range stock the cache remembers. Your broker or SGX data feed will show the true 52-week high and low, with dates attached — insist on the dates.

The pattern

Everything Keppel officially publishes now points to a S$10-plus stock with a 4%-plus distribution yield, so any “latest price” that disagrees with that picture is almost certainly a stale snapshot rather than a new reality.

Bottom line: The implication: any price quote for BN4 that lacks a date should be treated as a snapshot, not a valuation.

What does Keppel Ltd do?

Keppel Ltd is the former Keppel Corporation, and the FY2025 report’s one-line job description is infrastructure, real estate and connectivity under an asset-light model (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025). The numbers that carry the story: assets under management of ≈S$95 billion at end-2025, up from S$88 billion a year earlier, and recurring income of S$941 million, up 21% (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

What businesses make up Keppel Ltd?

  • Three engines: Keppel’s annual report groups the business around infrastructure, real estate and connectivity, with AUM of ≈S$95 billion (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Recurring income: S$941 million in FY2025, up 21% — the metric Keppel uses to prove the asset-light shift produces repeatable fees rather than one-off project profits (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Monetisation: ≈S$1.6 billion of asset monetisation completed in FY2025, which feeds the special-dividend policy (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

“New Keppel” net profit is the label Keppel uses for earnings from this repositioned portfolio: ≈S$1.1 billion in FY2025, up 39% from S$793 million (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025). It is the headline number behind the 18.7% return on equity and the ≈S$0.61 earnings per share in the FY2025 key figures (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures).

How does Keppel Ltd relate to Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust?

  • Separate listings: Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust are their own SGX-listed entities with separate disclosures, not divisions of Keppel Ltd (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • The structural link: Keppel Ltd’s FY2025 special distribution includes one Keppel REIT unit for every nine Keppel shares — a direct, measurable connection between the parent and the REIT (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Ownership records: Keppel Infrastructure Trust’s major shareholders are disclosed in its own annual report and trustee-manager filings, not in Keppel Ltd’s report (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

For anyone tracking “Keppel Corp share price SGX,” the sibling structures matter because news about Keppel REIT or Keppel Infrastructure Trust regularly shows up in the same search results — and neither moves BN4’s price automatically (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025). The in-specie REIT unit in the special distribution is the exception: it creates a direct valuation bridge between the two tickers on one specific date (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The implication

Keppel Ltd is the parent-operator with the ≈S$95 billion AUM franchise; Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust are separate tickers with separate dividends, gearing and risk profiles. Conflating them is the most common mistake in BN4 searches.

The structural boundary is the analytical starting point for every BN4-linked search.

Why did Keppel Corp share drop?

Short answer: the official FY2025 record does not document a recent drop — it documents the opposite. The shares closed 2025 at S$10.35, and the results-day reference price on was S$10.95 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). So if a “drop” headline brought you here, the first step is to check the date on the headline — and whether the headline is about Keppel Ltd at all.

The catch

A stock that re-rated strongly through 2025 can still post red days. Keppel’s official materials document the trend — up — not intraday noise, so a single-day move needs a live quote and a dated news story, not a cached summary (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).

What are the latest news headlines about Keppel Corporation?

  • Keppel REIT acquisition: Yahoo Finance reported that Keppel REIT is acquiring a 51% stake in Keppel South Central for $626.2 million. Note the issuer: Keppel REIT, a separate SGX-listed trust — the deal is not Keppel Ltd spending its own balance sheet, and it appears nowhere in Keppel Ltd’s FY2025 distribution figures (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • FY2025 results: the release raised the ordinary dividend and the special distribution together — the biggest “headline” in the official file (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

What factors caused the most recent price drop?

  • Documented direction: the FY2025 file shows a higher close, not a drop (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Documented cause: none — Keppel’s disclosures do not cite a price-drop event (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

No factor is confirmed because no drop is confirmed in the FY2025 file. The closest thing to a price shock in the record is the opposite — a re-rating that took the year-end close to S$10.35 and the results-day reference to S$10.95 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). If you are seeing a specific drop number elsewhere, compare it against those two dated reference points before treating it as current.

How much did the share price fall?

  • Official answer: not disclosed — and no official drop exists in the FY2025 record (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Official anchors: S$10.35 () and S$10.95 () (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

This article will not invent a number that Keppel has not published. Any claimed “fall” needs a dated, named source — ideally a broker feed or SGX data — before it belongs in an investment decision.

Why this matters

Search results mix Keppel Ltd, Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust headlines. A “Keppel drop” story is often about the REIT or the trust — different tickers, different economics, and a different effect on BN4 holders (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

The same discipline applies to drop queries: match the ticker before matching the narrative.

What is the target price for Keppel shares?

Target prices are estimates with timestamps, not promises. Keppel’s own FY2025 disclosures do not publish a broker consensus target, so any number labelled “2026 target” in search results comes from a third party — and you should demand its date before weighing it (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

What is the average target price of Keppel Corp shares for 2026?

  • Not in the official file: Keppel’s FY2025 results and annual report do not state a consensus target price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Where to find it: broker research portals and consensus aggregators publish dated estimates; treat any unnamed “average target” with suspicion.
  • Gap to market: with the reference close at S$10.95 on , a target only matters measured against that dated price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The gap between a dated consensus and the S$10.95 reference close is where the investment debate actually lives (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). A target of S$12 means something different before the FY2025 distribution was known than after it.

Which analysts cover Keppel Ltd?

  • Disclosure side: Keppel’s annual report and results are the modelling inputs — recurring income S$941 million, ROE 18.7%, net debt-to-EBITDA 2.0× (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures).
  • Consensus side: the analyst coverage list itself sits on broker platforms and aggregators, not in Keppel’s report (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

Broker coverage rotates quickly after a re-rating. In practice, the analyst who updates coverage with the FY2025 file in hand — including the ≈S$0.47 distribution and the 18.7% ROE — is the one whose target deserves attention (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

How reliable are share-price targets?

  • They lag: a target published before the results cannot include the ≈S$0.47 distribution or the 18.7% ROE print (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • They anchor: a target built on an old quote cache is measuring a different company than the one at S$10.95 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
The trade-off

The credible 2026 target for BN4, whenever a consensus updates, will be built on four inputs: ≈S$1.1 billion New Keppel net profit, S$941 million recurring income, 18.7% ROE and ≈S$0.47 of proposed distributions (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). Any target that ignores those inputs is already stale.

Bottom line: The implication: treat every target price as a dated opinion. The best use of a consensus is to compare it with the 4 February 2026 reference close of S$10.95 and with the distribution yield Keppel itself calculates — not to treat it as a forecast (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

Is Keppel undervalued?

This is the question the quote pages refuse to answer. The facts in the FY2025 file are strong: return on equity of 18.7%, up from 14.9%; AUM of ≈S$95 billion; recurring income up 21%; net debt-to-EBITDA of 2.0× (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures). “Undervalued”, however, is a judgment, not a disclosure.

What do the valuation metrics say?

  • Profitability: 18.7% ROE is the kind of number that justifies a premium, not a discount (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Payout: ≈S$0.47 of proposed distributions equals ≈4.3% at the close (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Coverage: the ordinary dividend of S$0.34 per share is a ≈56% payout of New Keppel net profit, leaving room to grow (Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement).
  • Balance sheet: 2.0× net debt-to-EBITDA is hardly stretched (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures).

What should investors check before calling Keppel cheap?

  • Test 1: can recurring income keep growing near the 21% level it printed in FY2025? (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Test 2: can monetisation repeat after ≈S$1.6 billion in FY2025? The special-dividend policy depends on it (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Test 3: does the market already know all this? The 2025 re-rating says it might (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).

Each test is answerable from the FY2025 file: recurring income of S$941 million, monetisation of ≈S$1.6 billion, and a year-end close that shows the re-rating already began (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review). The “cheap” argument therefore depends on the next year’s numbers, not the last one’s.

How should Keppel REIT be evaluated separately?

  • Its own ticker: Keppel REIT is a separate listed trust with its own yield, gearing and distribution disclosures (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Its own deal: the reported $626.2 million purchase of a 51% stake in Keppel South Central is a REIT-level decision about office assets, not a Keppel Ltd corporate action, as Yahoo Finance reported.

The one clean link between the two is the in-specie distribution: Keppel Ltd shareholders receive one Keppel REIT unit per nine shares, valued at ≈S$0.11 using Keppel REIT’s S$0.98 close on (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). That makes Keppel REIT a component of BN4’s total return for FY2025 — but it does not make the REIT’s management decisions Keppel Ltd’s.

The paradox

Keppel’s 18.7% ROE and ≈4.3% yield look attractive, and yet the re-rating already happened. The honest verdict is that “undervalued” is now a bet on FY2026 execution, not a discovery of FY2025 results (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement).

Bottom line: Keppel Ltd is a higher-quality, higher-priced stock than the search cache remembers. Income investors: the ≈4.3% yield plus the 10%–15% monetisation special-dividend policy are the hooks (Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement). Growth investors: watch FY2026 recurring income, because the easy part of the re-rating is spent (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

The determining variable is the live quoted price, not the annual report’s reference close.

What is the dividend for Keppel?

Keppel’s FY2025 dividend is a two-part story: a larger ordinary cash dividend and a special distribution partly paid in Keppel REIT units. Total proposed distributions are ≈S$0.47 per share, up 38% from FY2024 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

What is the Keppel Corp dividend yield for 2026?

  • At the results-day close: ≈4.3%, based on the S$10.95 close on (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • At the year-end close: ≈4.5%, based on S$10.35 on (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).
  • Old caches differ: a search-snapshot yield from an older, lower share price is not comparable — check the price behind the yield before comparing.

The math is straightforward: S$0.34 of ordinary cash, plus S$0.02 of special cash, plus one Keppel REIT unit per nine shares valued at ≈S$0.11, totals ≈S$0.47 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). Dividing that by the S$10.95 reference close gives ≈4.3%; dividing by the S$10.35 year-end close gives ≈4.5% (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review). Same payout, two prices, two yields.

What is the next dividend date?

  • Status: not announced in the FY2025 results release (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Sequence: AGM approval → ex-date → payment date (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The proposed S$0.19 final dividend and the ≈S$0.13 special distribution are subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM; the ex-date and payment date will follow that approval (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). The S$0.15 interim component is already part of the declared S$0.34 ordinary dividend, so the remaining calendar belongs to the final vote.

How is the dividend yield calculated?

  • Ordinary yield: annual cash dividend (S$0.34 for FY2025) ÷ current share price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Special uplift: ≈S$0.13 of the ≈S$0.47 total is special — S$0.02 cash plus one Keppel REIT unit per nine shares, valued near S$0.11 using the S$0.98 Keppel REIT close on (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • Payout policy: Keppel intends to pay special dividends equal to 10%–15% of the gross value of monetisation transactions completed in the financial year (Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement).
What to watch

Part of Keppel’s “dividend” is a REIT unit, not cash. If Keppel REIT’s price moves, the value of the in-specie distribution moves with it, so the yield a Singapore investor actually banks can differ from the headline 4.3% (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The trade-off: a 4.3% headline yield is only part of the picture when S$0.02 of the ≈S$0.47 is special cash and ≈S$0.11 is a REIT unit. Singapore income investors will feel the difference the moment the in-specie units land in their brokerage or CDP accounts.

Bottom line: Keppel’s FY2025 payout is ≈S$0.47 per share — S$0.34 ordinary cash, S$0.02 special cash and one Keppel REIT unit per nine shares. The next concrete date is the AGM, where the final dividend and special distribution go to a shareholder vote (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The dividend picture is therefore richer than a single yield number, but it is also more event-dependent.

Keppel Ltd at S$10.95: the upsides and downsides to weigh

Upsides

  • ROE jumped to 18.7% from 14.9% in a single year (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Recurring income of S$941 million, up 21%, supports a growing ordinary dividend (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Net debt-to-EBITDA of 2.0× leaves balance-sheet headroom (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures)
  • A stated policy of special dividends at 10%–15% of gross monetisation value (Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement)
  • Total proposed distributions up 38% year on year (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)

Downsides

  • The 2025 re-rating means the stock is no longer an obvious bargain at S$10.95 (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review)
  • The final dividend and special distribution are subject to shareholder approval (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • Part of the payout is an in-specie REIT unit whose value depends on Keppel REIT’s price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • A ≈4.3% distribution yield is solid, not spectacular, for Singapore blue chips (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)

The pattern: the upside is a quality-improving balance sheet, and the downside is mostly paid — the market already re-rated the stock before the FY2025 numbers landed (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).

Timeline signal

  • : BN4 closes at S$10.35; Keppel calculates a gross FY2025 distribution yield of ≈4.5% at that price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review).
  • : Keppel REIT closes at S$0.98, the reference price used to value the in-specie distribution at ≈S$0.11 per Keppel share (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
  • : FY2025 results released; reference close S$10.95; proposed total distribution ≈S$0.47 per share, up 38%; ROE 18.7% (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).
  • Next: AGM vote on the S$0.19 final dividend and the ≈S$0.13 special distribution; ex-date and payment date to be announced afterwards (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
The upshot

Every dated line in the FY2025 story moves the same direction — higher price, higher payout, stronger balance sheet. The next meaningful date for shareholders is the AGM, not a market-data refresh (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

The calendar, not the quote, is the next variable that moves BN4’s return.

Confirmed facts vs what’s still unclear

Confirmed facts

  • FY2025 New Keppel net profit ≈S$1.1 billion, up 39% (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Proposed total FY2025 distribution ≈S$0.47 per share, up 38% (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • FY2025 ROE 18.7%; AUM ≈S$95 billion (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Net debt-to-EBITDA 2.0× (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures)
  • Reference closes: S$10.35 () and S$10.95 () (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)

What’s unclear

  • No 2026 consensus target price appears in Keppel’s official disclosures (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • The ex-date and payment date for the final dividend are not yet announced (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results)
  • Whether the re-rating has already priced in FY2025 results is an analyst judgment, not a disclosed fact (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review)
  • Exact 2022 price history is not restated in the FY2025 materials (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)
  • Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust prices move on their own disclosures, not BN4’s (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025)

The balance of evidence favours the confirmed column — every tier-one official fact in the FY2025 file is positive — but the absence of a dated 2026 consensus and a confirmed ex-date keeps the “buy now” timing question open (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

Key statements from the FY2025 file

Keppel intends to pay special dividends equivalent to 10%–15% of the gross value of monetisation transactions completed during the financial year.

— Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement

Total proposed FY2025 distributions were approximately S$0.47 per Keppel share, up 38% from FY2024 — approximately 4.3% based on the S$10.95 closing price on 4 February 2026.

— Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results

Keppel REIT to acquire 51% stake in Keppel South Central for $626.2 mil.

— Yahoo Finance news desk

The pattern: Keppel’s own documents commit to a monetisation-linked payout, quantify the FY2025 jump, and leave the REIT deal to the REIT — the three statements that together explain BN4 better than any single price tick (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results, Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement).

The takeaway

For a Singapore investor deciding whether BN4 deserves an income-portfolio slot, the choice is now sharper. Keppel Ltd enters 2026 as a ≈S$95 billion-AUM operator with an 18.7% ROE, a 2.0× net debt-to-EBITDA ratio and a stated habit of returning 10%–15% of monetisation proceeds as special dividends (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Key Figures, Keppel Corporation Chairman’s Statement). The stock also trades at S$10.95 after a strong 2025 re-rating, so another 38% jump in distributions is not the base case. For income investors, the concrete next step is to mark the AGM on the calendar and wait for the final dividend’s ex-date; for growth investors, the metric to watch is FY2026 recurring income growth against the S$941 million print — because that number, not the re-rating, will decide whether Keppel was cheap at S$10.95 or merely fairly priced.

Yes. Keppel Corporation was renamed Keppel Ltd, and the same SGX-listed entity trades under ticker BN4. Keppel REIT and Keppel Infrastructure Trust are separate listed entities with their own tickers and disclosures (Keppel Corporation Annual Report 2025).

Why do some sources show Keppel Corp under different tickers such as BN4, KEP1.SG and KPELY?

BN4 is the native SGX ticker for Keppel Ltd. KEP1.SG and KPELY are display formats used by international data platforms for Keppel’s Singapore listing or its related US-traded line. Match the company name and the currency (SGD) before trusting any quote, and always check the timestamp.

Where can I find official Keppel Ltd announcements?

Keppel’s media and results pages on keppel.com carry the official releases, including the FY2025 results used throughout this article (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results). SGX’s announcement platform is the regulatory source for price-sensitive disclosures, and broker reports add third-party interpretation.

What does ‘ex-dividend date’ mean for Keppel shareholders?

The ex-dividend date is the first trading day on which a buyer of the shares no longer receives the upcoming dividend; only holders recorded before that date qualify. For Keppel’s proposed S$0.19 final dividend, the ex-date has not yet been announced and will follow shareholder approval at the AGM (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

How should I compare Keppel’s dividend yield with Singapore blue chips?

Use the same formula for every counter: expected annual cash dividend divided by the current share price. Keppel’s ≈S$0.47 total proposed distribution equals ≈4.3% at the close, but the special in-specie REIT unit means the ordinary cash yield (S$0.34) should be compared separately from the total distribution yield (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).

How are Singapore stock prices quoted for SGX securities like BN4?

SGX shares are quoted in Singapore dollars per share. Keppel’s official references are S$10.35 at and S$10.95 on ; live boards add the current bid-ask and intraday change. Always carry the timestamp with the price (Keppel Corporation FY2025 Financial Review, Keppel Corporation FY2025 Results).
