M Winkworth plc
Dividend Declaration
The Directors of M Winkworth Plc ("Winkworth" or the "Company") are pleased to announce that the Company will pay a dividend of 1.4p per ordinary share for the second quarter of 2020 to shareholders.
Winkworth traded profitably in the first half of 2020 and the Group's net cash position at the end of the period exceeded £3m. After adhering to government guidelines and rapidly adopting all the necessary measures to ensure the safety of customers and staff, Winkworth was well positioned to restart activity at the end of lockdown on 13 May. Between that date and 30 June, Winkworth ranked second in London for both instructions and sales*.
While the outlook for the second half of the year remains hard to predict, the board remains committed to paying a quarterly dividend.
The Directors are also pleased to announce that, following a formal tender process, it has been agreed that Crowe UK LLP will be appointed as the Company's auditor for the year ended 31 December 2020.
