DIVIDEND DECLARATION
The Board of Directors of the Company has declared an interim dividend of 1.70 pence per share in respect of the period to 31 December 2025. The dividend will be paid on 9 April 2026 to shareholders on the register as at 13 March 2026. The ex-dividend date is 12 March 2026. The 1.70 pence per share dividend represents the net revenue return earned by the Company for the period ended 31 December 2025.
The next dividend declaration is likely to be announced in February 2027, then every year thereafter. The dividends will not be less than 85% of net revenue return of the period distributed, as previously disclosed.
The Company has elected to designate all of the interim dividend as an interest distribution to its shareholders, thereby "streaming" income from interest-bearing investments into dividends that will be taxed in the hands of shareholders as interest income. No income tax will therefore be deducted at source from this, or from future interest distributions.
