The Board has declared a fourth interim dividend for Q4 2024 of 16p per share (Q4 2023: 16p per share).
Dividends remain an essential component of total shareholder return and GSK recognises the importance of dividends to shareholders. On 23 June 2021, at the GSK Investor Update, GSK set out that from 2022 a progressive dividend policy will be implemented guided by a 40 to 60 per cent pay-out ratio through the investment cycle. Consistent with this, GSK has declared a dividend of 16p for Q4 2024 and 61p per share for full year 2024. The expected dividend for 2025 is 64p per share. In setting its dividend policy, GSK considers the capital allocation priorities of the Group and its investment strategy for growth alongside the sustainability of the dividend.
