By Ott Ummelas - 2011-08-09T13:41:30Z

AS Tallinna Kaubamaja, Estonia’s largest retailer, reported lower second-quarter profit, citing tax expenses on dividend payment.

Net profit declined to 3.6 million euros ($5.1 million) from 4.9 million euros a year earlier, the Tallinn-based company said in a regulatory statement today. Revenue rose 7 percent to 110 million euros.

Kaubamaja paid dividend tax of 3 million euros in June. It paid no tax on dividends last year.
