The Goodwin Board proposes to pay a dividend of 133 pence per share, up 16% on the previous year (2023: 115p). The proposed dividend has been calculated using the Group's profit after taxation figure, plus depreciation and amortisation for the year ended 30th April, 2024, after having excluded the non-cash mark to market unrealised gain relating to the 10-year interest rate swap.
Similar to last year, the Board proposes to continue to smooth the Group's cash flow by splitting the payment of the proposedordinary dividends of 133 pence per share into equal instalments of 66.5 pence per share on 4th October, 2024 and on or around 11th April, 2025 to shareholders on the register on 13th September, 2024 and on or around 21st March, 2025 respectively.
