FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT AND DIVIDEND CURRENCY EQUIVALENTS
Shareholders are referred to Old Mutual's Results announcement dated 14 March 2023, wherein the company declared a final dividend of 51 cents per share. The dividend will be payable to all shareholders (except for Old Mutual Limited shareholders on the London Stock Exchange (LSE)) on 17 April 2023. The dividend payment date for Old Mutual Limited shareholders on the LSE is 15 May 2023.
The dividend of 51 cents per ordinary share will be subject to a local dividend tax rate of 20% which will result in a net final dividend, to those shareholders who are not exempt from paying dividend tax, of 40.800 cents per ordinary share. Shareholders who are not exempt or are not subject to a reduced rate in terms of a double taxation agreement, will be subject to a dividend withholding tax at a rate of 20%.
Shareholders on the London, Zimbabwean, Malawian and Namibian registers will be paid in the local currency equivalents of the final dividend. Distributions made through the dividend access trust or similar arrangements established in a country will not be subject to South African withholding tax but may be subject to withholding tax in the relevant country. We recommend that you consult with your tax advisor regarding the in-country withholding tax consequences.
