First quarterly interim dividend

The Directors have declared that a first quarterly interim dividend of 7.00 pence per share for the year ending 31^st December 2021 will be paid on 4^th June 2021 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 30^th April 2021. The ex-dividend date will be 29^th April 2021.

While the Board is conscious of the continued effect that the Coronavirus pandemic is having on dividends from its portfolio companies, it also recognises that the Company has the benefit of strong revenue reserves.

As announced in the Annual Report, the Board has decided to increase the dividend payable in each of the first three quarters to 7.00 pence from the 6.50 pence paid in the previous period.

The Company has increased its total annual dividend for 48 consecutive years and the Board's dividend policy remains to seek to increase the dividend each year and, taking a run of years together, to pay dividends that at least match the rate of inflation.
