INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS LIMITED
ALLOTMENT OF SCRIP DIVIDEND SHARES
The Board of International Public Partnerships Limited ('INPP' or the 'Company') wish to confirm the following in respect of the scrip dividend:
Dividend period: | 1 January 2012 - 30 June 2012 |
Dividend amount per share: | 3.00 pence |
Scrip dividend price per share: | 120.92 pence |
Payment date/Allotment of scrip: | 19 October 2012 |
Number of new shares to be issued: | 3,155,528 |
Total number of INPP shares in issue at 19 October 2012: | 711,581,898 |
In December 2011, the Board of Directors provided indicative guidance on the Company's target 2012/13 distribution which is a target of 6.0 pence per share. Assuming this target is achieved, this would represent a 2.6% increase on the 2011 distribution, and would be the fifth consecutive year the Company has increased distributions above the 2.5% growth forecast indicated at the time of the Company's IPO in 2006. The Board today reconfirms this guidance. Assuming the target distribution is met, the remaining instalment of 3.0 pence per share is expected to be paid for the period 1 July 2012-31 December 2012 in May/June 2013.
Note: The above distribution guidance is a target only and 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.
