2015 Second Half Year Dividend
The Board of International Public Partnerships Limited (INPP), the FTSE 250 listed infrastructure investment company, declares a distribution covering the period:
Distribution period: | 1 July 2015 - 31 December 2015 |
Distribution amount per share: | 3.225 pence |
Ex-dividend date: | 14 April 2016 |
Dividend record date: | 15 April 2016 |
Last date to elect/revoke elections: | 13 May 2016 |
Payment date/Allotment of scrip: | 27 May 2016 |
Scrip Alternative in operation: | Yes |
The 2015 second half year distribution of 3.225 pence per share is in line with the target previously outlined by the Directors and, as per previous periods, has been entirely funded through operating cash flow from the underlying projects.
The Board intend to offer a scrip dividend alternative for this distribution to those investors who wish to receive additional INPP securities in lieu of a cash payment. A circular will be sent to shareholders explaining the terms of the scrip dividend alternative. It is intended that the circular, together with scrip dividend election forms, will be mailed on or about 25 April 2016 to all eligible INPP shareholders on the register as at the record date for the dividend being 15 April 2016. The scrip dividend election forms will need to be completed and returned to Capita Asset Services by 13 May 2016 by those investors who wish to receive shares in lieu of cash.
2015 and 2016 Full Year Distributions
The Board of Directors has established a minimum target for 2016 and 2017 distributions of 6.65 pence per share and 6.82 pence per share (respectively), providing additional guidance to investors as to the Company's future intentions. The targeted payments would represent a minimum c.2.5% increase on the preceding distributions and would continue to be in line with the growth target indicated at the time of INPP's IPO in 2006.
Note: The above distribution guidance is provided by the Company in consultation with its Investment Advisor as a target only and is not a profit forecast. There can be no assurance that this target will be met or that the Company will make any distributions whatsoever. The times and dates in this announcement are expected times and dates only and are subject to change. Any such changes will be notified to shareholders through a regulatory information service.
