Special Dividend

24th Oct 2018 16:56

RNS Number : 0954F
Ranger Direct Lending Fund PLC

24 October 2018

Ranger Direct Lending Fund plc (the "Company")

Special Dividend

 

Further to the announcement made earlier today regarding the sale of the current receivables held by the Company that were originated by the Consumer Receivables Platform (RNS: 0262F), the Directors have approved the distribution of the proceeds of this sale to the Company's shareholders by way of a special dividend.

 

The Directors of the Company are therefore pleased to declare a Special Dividend of 0.85 pence per ordinary share (equivalent US$1.10 per ordinary share) (the "Special Dividend").

 

The Special Dividend will be paid on 16 November 2018 to shareholders on the register as of 2 November 2018. The ex-dividend date is 1 November 2018.

 

This Special Dividend is in addition to the Q2 2018 dividend which was announced within the Company's Half Year Report on 25 September 2018 and is payable on 8 November 2018.

 

The Company has elected to designate all of the Special Dividend as an interest distribution to its shareholders. In doing so the Company is taking advantage of UK tax treatment by "streaming" income from interest-bearing investments into dividends that will be taxed in the hands of shareholders as interest income.
