First quarterly interim dividend

The Directors have declared that a first quarterly interim dividend of 5.50 pence per share for the year ending 31st December 2017 will be paid on 1st June 2017 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 5th May 2017. The ex-dividend date will be 4th May 2017.

As it has done in the past, the Board has decided to re-balance the Company's dividend payments and currently intends to increase the dividend payable in each of the first three quarters to 5.50 pence from the 5.00 pence paid in the previous periods.

The Company has increased its total annual dividend for 44 consecutive years and it remains the Board's aim to increase the total dividend each year and, taking a run of years together, the Board continues to aspire to deliver increases in dividends that will at least match the rate of inflation.
