Results of Dividend Reinvestment Plan

 

The Company announces results of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") for the 2024 final dividend, in accordance with the JSE Limited Listing Requirements.

 

The Notice of Dividend (the "Notice"), announced on 20 February 2025, outlined the details of the final dividend approved by the Board in respect of the year to 31 December 2024 (the "Cash Dividend"), and advising shareholders of the DRIP alternative.

 

As set out in the Notice, shareholders could elect 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 7 May 2025. The deadline for receipt of the DRIP elections was 11 April 2025 for United Kingdom ("UK") and Botswanan shareholders and 15 April 2025 for South African shareholders.

 

Following the respective DRIP Share purchase settlement dates as set out in the Notice, the Company advises that:

-      Shareholders on the principal UK share register holding 23,647,828 Shares, or 1.77% of the Company's issued share capital as at 14 March 2025 (the record date applicable to the principal and branch registers), and who qualified to receive the Cash Dividend, elected to receive Shares in terms of the DRIP, resulting in the purchase of 183,795 Shares in the market at an average price of £20.944 per share and their delivery to such electing shareholders.

-      Shareholders on the South African branch register holding 11,841,679  Shares, or 0.89% of the Company's issued share capital as at 14 March 2025, and who qualified to receive the Cash Dividend, elected to receive Shares in terms of the DRIP, resulting in the purchase of 87,596 Shares in the market at an average price of ZAR 501.0707 per Share and their delivery to such electing shareholders.

-      Shareholders on the Botswanan branch register did not participate in the DRIP on this occasion.

 

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 is 1,337,577,913 ordinary shares of US$0.54945 each.  The Company does not hold any Shares in Treasury.
