2025 Scrip Dividend and Bonus Issue Share Price
Manx Financial Group PLC announces the share price applicable to both the 2025 Scrip Dividend and the Additional 2025 Bonus Issue following approval of the dividend (the "Dividend"), by shareholders at the Company's AGM held on 18 June 2026. The Dividend comprises two elements:
· a scrip dividend of 0.5197 pence per ordinary share, in respect of which shareholders have been given the option to elect to receive either cash or fully paid ordinary shares in the Company; and
· a bonus issue of 0.2599 pence per ordinary share, to be satisfied by the allotment and issue of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, credited as fully paid by a capitalisation of retained profits.
The Dividend will be paid on 20 August 2026 to holders of Ordinary Shares recorded on the register on 10 July 2026. The final election date for the 2025 Scrip Dividend is 27 July 2026 at 5.00 p.m.
The share price for the Dividend has been determined as 22.1983 pence per share, calculated by taking the lowest daily Volume Weighted Average Price ("VWAP") recorded by the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange during the period of twenty (20) dealing days prior to (and including) the ex-dividend date (capped at a 20% discount to the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the ex-dividend date).
Details of the process for electing to participate in the scheme are set out in the Dividend Circular, which was posted to shareholders on 3 July 2026 and is also available on the investor page of the Company's website www.mfg.im/circulars/ (Investors section).
