KUALA LUMPUR: GD EXPRESS CARRIER BHD [] (GDEX) net profit for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2011 rose 19.49% to RM2.82 million from RM2.36 million a year earlier, due to higher demand for logistics services in the market.

Earnings per share rose to 1.10 sen from 0.92 sen in 2010, while net assets per share was 18 sen.
GDEX proposed a final single tier dividend of 12.5% or 1.25 sen per share in respect of the financial year ended June 30, 2011, subject to shareholders' approval at its forthcoming AGM.
