Results of Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Company refers shareholders to the announcement titled "Dividend Declaration" published on the London Stock Exchange, SENS and Euronext Dublin on 25 February 2026 (the 'Announcement'), which outlined the details of the final cash dividend recommended by the Board for the period ending 31 December 2025 (the 'Cash Dividend'). The payment of the Cash Dividend was subsequently approved by shareholders at the Company's 2026 Annual General Meeting, as announced by the Company on 30 April 2026. The Company now advises shareholders of the results of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan ('DRIP') alternative.
As set out in the Announcement, shareholders were offered an option to receive their Cash Dividend in the form of ordinary shares ('Shares') through a DRIP, otherwise the dividend would be paid out in cash on 8 May 2026. The deadline for the receipt of DRIP elections was 16 April 2026.
Following the respective DRIP Share purchase settlement dates as set out in the Announcement, the Company hereby advises that:
- Shareholders on the United Kingdom ('UK') share register holding 4,532,210 Shares or 0.8518% of the Company's issued share capital as at 27 March 2026 (UK and SA record date), and who qualified to receive the Cash Dividend, elected to receive Shares in terms of the DRIP, resulting in the purchase of 92,519 Shares in the market at an average price of £3.31 per Share and their delivery to such electing shareholders.
- Shareholders on the South African ('SA') share register holding 524,475 Shares or 0.09858% of the Company's issued share capital as at 27 March 2026 (UK and SA record date), and who qualified to receive the Cash Dividend, elected to receive Shares in terms of the DRIP, resulting in the purchase of 10,746 Shares in the market at an average price of R71.7036 per Share and their delivery to such electing shareholders.
As the Shares settled on shareholders pursuant to the DRIP were purchased in the market and not newly issued by the Company, the Company's total issued share capital remains 532,054,593 Shares of 5 pence each, of which 8,285 Shares are held in treasury.
