You are not comparing like with like here. 16.1p was the final divided for FY2022 payable 20 Oct. 2022, an increase of 6.6% over the final dividend for FY2021 of 15.1p, payable 28 Oct. 2021. The interim dividend for FY2023 payable 16 Dec 2022 of 7.8p increased 9.9% over the interim dividend for FY022 of 7.1p payable 24 Dec 2021. The dividend has not more or less doubled.
