Summary table: key facts from the update
Why the announcement matters for investors
For income-focused investors, the record date and AGM approval process are the practical checkpoints. The dividend is not final until shareholders approve it at the AGM, even though the board has already recommended it. The historical table also shows a pattern of regular final dividends over the past several years, which helps investors evaluate consistency.
For investors tracking fundamentals, the dividend recommendation is set against reported FY26 growth in revenue and net profit, and a strong Q1 FY27 snapshot in revenue and PBT as stated in the text. Separately, the presence of multiple dividend yield figures in the same dataset underlines the importance of checking which time period and price reference a yield metric is using.
What to watch next
The next confirmed milestone is the 65th AGM on 31 August 2026, where shareholders will vote on the dividend proposal along with other ordinary and special business items. Investors focused on the dividend will typically track the AGM outcome and subsequent payment process, using the company’s exchange filings for final confirmation.
