The VP Board has proposed a final dividend of 25.0 pence per share to be paid on 5 August 2021 to shareholders on the register at 25 June 2021. As no interim dividend was paid, this makes a total dividend for the year of 25.0 pence per share (2020: 30.45 pence per share). A special dividend of 22.0 pence per share was paid to shareholders on 17 January 2021 in lieu of the final dividend for the financial year ended 31 March 2020, which was delayed due to Covid-19 uncertainties.
