Policy
The directors' current dividend policy is to declare dividends of at least 90% of surplus after taxation. This is subject to a number of considerations, including:
- extraordinary items
- the interests of shareholders
- working capital requirements
- capital expenditure requirements
- relevant market practice
The directors aim to maximise future dividends in this way, and will continue to distribute dividends in March and October each year.
