Dividend
The interim dividend proposed of 0.15 pence per share is calculated on a consistent basis with the FY25 final dividend, representing 3x FY25 pre-exceptional earnings cover, and applying our historic one-third/two-thirds interim/final split.
The interim dividend will be paid on 23 April 2026 to shareholders on the register on 13 March 2026. A Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) is provided by Equiniti Financial Services Limited. The DRIP enables the Company's shareholders to elect to have their cash dividend payments used to purchase the Company's shares. More information can be found at www.shareview.co.uk/info/drip. The deadline to elect to participate in the DRIP is 30 March 2026.
