DIVIDENDS
Dividends represent the return of profits to shareholders. Dividends are paid
as an amount per ordinary share held. The Group retains part of the profits
generated to meet future investment plans or to fund share buyback programmes.
In addition to the interim dividend of 1.5p per share, the proposed final
dividend is 3.0p per share for the year ended 31 December 2024, giving a total
full year dividend of 4.5p per share (2023: 4.0p per share). The dividend will
be submitted for formal approval at the Annual General Meeting expected to be
held on 8 May 2025 and, subject to approval, will be paid on 5 June 2025 to
those shareholders registered on Friday, 2 May 2025.
The Company has sufficient distributable reserves to pay dividends to its
ultimate shareholders. Distributable reserves are calculated on an individual
legal entity basis and the ultimate parent company, Centrica plc, currently
has adequate levels of realised profits within its retained earnings to
support dividend payments.
