2021 and 2022 Full Year Distributions
The Board of Directors reaffirms that it has established a target for 2021 of 7.55 pence per share and a 2022 target distribution of 7.74 pence per share, providing additional guidance to investors as to the Company's future intentions and the overall continued performance of its portfolio. The targeted payments would represent a 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. Whilst we currently have good forward-visibility of cash flows generated by the Company's investments given their predictability, we continue to monitor the current Covid-19 related uncertainty.
Note: The above distribution guidance is provided by the Company in consultation with its Investment Adviser 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. The Board will continue to review whether scrip dividends are appropriate for future dividends. Any such changes will be notified to shareholders through a regulatory information service.
