2021 distribution payments
On 29 April, shareholders resolved to pay an aggregate distribution of US$0.12 per share in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2020. On 5 August, the Company announced an additional distribution of $0.04 per share.
Distributions will be declared and paid in U.S. dollars, although shareholders on the Jersey register will be able to elect to receive their distribution payments in Pounds Sterling, Euros or Swiss Francs. Shareholders who formerly held shares through the Computershare Hong Kong nominee will receive distribution payments in US dollars unless they make an election to receive payments in Swiss francs, Sterling or Euros, or subscribe to the global payment service to elect to receive payments in the currency of their choosing (including Hong Kong Dollars), by the prescribed date. Elections will remain in place until revoked by the shareholder.
Shareholders on the Johannesburg register will receive their distribution payments in South African Rand.
The distribution will be made from the capital contribution reserves of the Company in two equal tranches of $0.06 payable in the first six months of the 2021 financial year (H1) and second six months of the 2021 financial year (H2) in accordance with the timetable below. The process and payment of the additional distribution of $0.04 will be aligned with the H2 distribution timetable below.
