The Dewhurst Group Plc Board is proposing a final dividend of 11.50p (2023: 11.00p). If approved, this would be paid on 26 February 2025 and would result in a total dividend for 2024 of 16.50p per share which is 4.8% up on 2023 and is covered 4.3 times by earnings. The dividend would be paid to members on the register at 17 January 2025 (ex-dividend 16 January 2025). Dividends are accounted for when paid or approved by shareholders, and not when proposed, therefore the proposed final dividend for 2024 has not been accrued at the end of the reporting period.
