DIVIDEND
DECLARATION
The Board of Directors of the
Company has declared an interim dividend of 1.89 pence per share
for the three-month period to 30 June 2024. The dividend will be
paid on 3 October 2024 to shareholders on the register as at 6
September 2024. The ex-dividend date is 5 September
2024.
The dividend declared of 1.89 pence
per share represents a 2.00p equivalent
dividend adjusted to reflect the reduction to NAV as a consequence
to the B-Shares issued to shareholders on 19 April 2024 and
redeemed on 25 April 2024.
The Board notes that, as previously
described, changes to the portfolio composition as debt positions
are repaid or restructured are resulting in materially lower levels
of income at a portfolio level which will be reflected in what is
likely to be a substantial reduction in the dividend in future
periods, although as an investment company dividends will represent
a distribution of no less than 85% of gross income.
The Company has elected to designate
all of the interim dividend for the three-month period to 30 June
2024 as an interest distribution to its shareholders, thereby
"streaming" income from interest-bearing investments into dividends
that will be taxed in the hands of shareholders as interest income.
No income tax will therefore be deducted at source from this,
or from future interest distributions.
