DIVIDEND DECLARATION

The Directors of the Company announce that an interim dividend of 33.00 pence per share will be paid on 29 March 2024 to shareholders on the Company's register of members at close of business on 8 March 2024. The ex-dividend date is 7 March 2024.

Under the ongoing shareholder returns programme, the scheduled return for the twelve months to 30 September 2024 is currently £283,172,570 ('Qualifying Return').  The Qualifying Return can be made through either dividends or share buy-backs, subject to a dividend underpin of 66.00 pence per share.

The table below sets out the status of the Qualifying Return following today's interim dividend announcement: 

* Excluding shares held in Treasury and by the Employee Benefit Trust

To the extent the remaining Qualifying Return is not delivered by the residual dividend underpin of 66 pence per share per annum or share buy-backs, the balance will be returned in September 2024 and will be accompanied by a share consolidation, unless the balance is deemed de minimis for these purposes.  The Qualifying Return will be increased appropriately if any new shares are issued either from treasury or as newly listed shares.  

With 106,042,527 shares currently eligible for distributions, the Qualifying Return equates to £2.67 per share.
