Dividend and Capital Repayment

The Board of CT UK High Income Trust PLC announces a third quarter dividend in respect of the financial year to 31 March 2024 of 1.32 pence per Ordinary share. This dividend will be paid on 2 February 2024 to Ordinary shareholders on the register on 5 January 2024, with an ex-dividend date of 4 January 2024. 

A third quarter capital repayment of 1.32 pence per B share will be paid on 2 February 2024 to B shareholders on the register on 5 January 2024, with an ex-dividend date of 4 January 2024. Capital repayments on B shares are paid at the same time and in an amount equal to each dividend paid on an Ordinary share.  

This represents an unchanged dividend / capital repayment from the third quarter of the prior financial year to 31 March 2023.

The normal pattern for the Company is to pay four quarterly interim distributions per financial year.

Including this distribution, the first three quarterly distributions will total 3.96 pence per share and in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, the Company currently intends that the aggregate distribution for the financial year to 31 March 2024 will be at least 5.51 pence per share (Financial year to 31 March 2023: 5.51 pence per share).
