In December 2012, the Board of Directors provided indicative guidance on the Company's target 2013/14 distribution which is a target of 6.15 pence per share. Assuming this target is achieved, this would represent a 2.5% increase on the 2012 distribution, and would be the fifth consecutive year the Company has increased distributions above the 2.5% growth forecast indicated at the time of the Company's IPO in 2006. The Board today reconfirms this guidance.
Note: The above distribution guidance is a target only and not a profit forecast. There can be no assurance that this target will be met or that the Company will make any distributions whatsoever. The times and dates in this announcement are expected times and dates only and are subject to change. Any such changes will be notified to shareholders through a regulatory information service.
