The Amino plc Board took the difficult decision to suspend the dividend in the light of the global pandemic and associated uncertainty. Their new dividend policy, to deliver returns to shareholders via growth and income, was announced in December and reflects the Company's growth ambitions. This policy of paying between 33-50% of adjusted EPS in dividend is expected to provide shareholders with a growing income stream whilst allowing the Company to invest in growth.
In line with this policy the Board recommends a dividend of 1.87 pence per share
