As previously announced, the Company intends to pay the Q2 2023 Dividend on 29 December 2023 to those shareholders on the register on 1 December 2023.

Beginning with the Q3 2023 dividend payment as announced on 15 November 2023, the per share dividend will be reflected on a post-Consolidation basis.

 

Illustrative Dividend Payment Example:  

The illustrative Q3 2023 dividend payment example provides shareholders with a calculation for how the Q3 2023 Dividend payment will be adjusted for ordinary shares of £0.20 each as of the record date.  

 

Pre-Consolidation:  100 shares x $0.04375 (declared dividend) = $4.375 (total shareholder payment)

Post-Consolidation: 5 shares x $0.875 (adjusted declared dividend) = $4.375 (total shareholder payment)
