Beneficial Holdings, Inc. Provides Dividend Update

MANAGUA, NICARAGUA--(Marketwire - January 28, 2010) - Beneficial Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: BFHJ), a casino investment and management holding company, today updated shareholders as to the progress of its dividend.

After extensive consultations with the transfer agent and review of documentation from FINRA, the Company clarifies that it will be issuing additional shares in the form of a dividend, not a stock split. This means that we will not change our symbol and there will not be a new CUSIP number. Rather, the additional shares will be delivered through the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation. Shareholders with physical certificates will be given instructions shortly after the dividend.

For every single one share owned by a shareholder on the ex-date (to be announced), the shareholder will receive six additional common shares. This means if you have 10,000 shares of our stock, you will have a total of 70,000 shares after the dividend.

BFHJ will announce the ex-date for the dividend as soon as practicable. The ex-date may be as soon as a day after the announcement depending on the Company receiving approval notifications.
