Declaration of Third Interim Dividend
The Directors of the Company have today declared a third interim dividend in respect of the year ending 31 December 2024 of 2.55p per Ordinary share of No Par Value (2023: 2.50p). The dividend will be payable on 22 November 2024 to Ordinary shareholders on the register on 25 October 2024, ex-dividend date 24 October 2024.
The Board is aware of the importance of dividends to shareholders. In the absence of unforeseen circumstances it is the Board's intention to increase the level of dividend for the year (2023: 11.75p) so as to enable the Company to retain its status as a "next generation dividend hero" as recognised by the Association of Investment Companies.
The level of the fourth and final interim dividend for 2024 will be considered in January 2025, at which point an announcement will be made by the Company.
The Company operates a Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") which is managed by the registrar, Link Group, and the deadline for elections under the DRIP will be 1 November 2024.
