FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT AND DIVIDEND CURRENCY EQUIVALENTS
Shareholders are referred to Old Mutual's Results announcement dated 30 August 2022, wherein the company declared an interim dividend of 25 cents per share. The interim dividend payment date is Monday, 17 October 2022 but shareholders on the Malawi Stock Exchange will be paid on Tuesday, 18 October 2022 due to a public holiday on Monday, 17 October 2022. The dividend of 25 cents per ordinary share will be subject to a local dividend tax rate of 20% which will result in a net final dividend, to those shareholders who are not exempt from paying dividend tax, of 20 cents per ordinary share. Shareholders who are not exempt or are not subject to a reduced rate in terms of a double taxation agreement, will be subject to a dividend withholding tax at a rate of 20%.
Shareholders on the London, Malawian, Namibian and Zimbabwean registers will be paid in the local currency equivalents of the interim dividend. Distributions made through the dividend access trust or similar arrangements established in a country will not be subject to South African withholding tax but may be subject to withholding tax in the relevant country. We recommend that you consult with your tax advisor regarding the in-country withholding tax consequences.
The local currency equivalents of the interim dividend have been established as follows:
Malawi | 14.81551 | Malawian kwacha per share |
Namibia | 25.00000 | Namibian cents per share |
United Kingdom | 1.25125 | GBP pence per share |
Zimbabwe | 773.03649 | RTGS cents per share |
The local currency equivalents have been calculated using the following exchange rates:
Malawi | 59.26202 | Malawian kwacha per Rand |
Namibia | 1.00000 | Namibian cents per Rand |
United Kingdom | 19.98000 | Rand per Pound sterling |
Zimbabwe | 0.03234 | Rand per RTGS dollar |
The timetable released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 30 August 2022 remains unchanged.
