(the "Company")
INTERIM DIVIDEND FOR THE
YEAR ENDING 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
Henderson European Focus Trust plc has declared an interim dividend of 3.05p per ordinary share in respect of the year ending 30 September 2024, payable on 28 June 2024 to shareholders on the register of members on 7 June 2024.
As a consequence of the proposed combination of the Company's assets with those of Henderson EuroTrust plc, this interim dividend comprises a higher proportion of the anticipated full-year distribution than in previous years. This is to ensure that, with the increased number of shares resulting from the proposed combination, the Company's shareholders will receive a total dividend for the year ending 30 September 2024 not less than the previous year's total dividend of 4.35p per share. The recommended final dividend will, therefore, be smaller than usual. It is expected that dividends will return to the typical cycle of a smaller interim and a larger final dividend for the financial year ending 30 September 2025.
The Company's shares will be quoted ex-dividend on 6 June 2024.
