The Board has declared a final cash dividend of 40 SA cps for the year ended 30 June 2022 as follows:
●
●
●
Withholding Tax;
●
Withholding Tax;
●
●
In compliance with the requirements of Strate Proprietary Limited (“
Strate
”) and the JSE Limited Listings
Requirements, given the Company’s primary listing on the exchange operated by the JSE, the salient dates for
payment of the dividend are as follows:
●
cum
-dividend: Tuesday, 20 September 2022;
●
ex
-dividend: Wednesday, 21 September 2022;
●
●
On payment date, dividends due to holders of certificated securities on the SA share register will either be
electronically transferred to such shareholders’ bank accounts or, in the absence of suitable mandates, dividends will
be held in escrow by the Company until suitable mandates are received to electronically transfer dividends to such
shareholders.
Dividends in respect of dematerialised shareholdings will be credited to such shareholders’ accounts with the relevant
Central Securities Depository Participant (CSDP) or broker.
To comply with the further requirements of Strate, between Wednesday, 21 September 2022 and Friday,
23 September 2022, both days inclusive, no transfers between the SA share register and any other share register will
be permitted and no ordinary shares pertaining to the SA share register may be dematerialised or rematerialised.
The currency conversion date for the Australian and United Kingdom share registers will be Monday,
26 September 2022.
The holders of American Depositary Receipts (“
ADRs
") should confirm dividend details with the depository bank.
Assuming an exchange rate of R17.00/$1, the net dividend payable on an ADR is equivalent to 19 United States
cents for ADR holders liable to pay dividend withholding tax. However, the actual rate of payment will depend on the
exchange rate on the date for currency conversion.
