Dividend policy
The Company second objective is to grow the dividend in excess of inflation. In the short term, the Board has the ability to decide on the level of the dividend - by paying dividends out of revenue or capital reserves if appropriate. But in the medium term dividend progression is a function of the Company finances. Dividends are payable quarterly, on November, February, May and July of each year.
