(f) Dividend
The group aims to maximise its return of capital to shareholders each year. The decision in respect of the dividend is made with reference to the dividend policy for the respective period that includes dividend cover, as well as current performance trends, including sales and profit after tax together with cash generation. Diageo targets dividend cover (the ratio of basic earnings per share before exceptional items to dividend per share) within the range of 1.8 - 2.2 times. For the year ended 30 June 2024, dividend cover was 1.7 times. The group will keep future returns of capital, including dividends, under review through the year ending 30 June 2025, to ensure Diageo’s capital is allocated in the best way to maximise value for the business and its stakeholders.
An interim dividend of 40.50 cents per share (2023 – 40.50 cents per share) will be paid to holders of ordinary shares and US ADRs on register as of 28 February 2025. The ex-dividend date is 27 February 2025 for holders of ordinary shares and 28 February 2025 for holders of US ADRs. The interim dividend will be paid to holders of ordinary shares and US ADRs on 24 April 2025. Holders of ordinary shares will receive their dividends in sterling unless they elect to receive their dividends in US dollars by 21 March 2025.
The dividend per share in pence to be paid to ordinary shareholders will be announced on 9 April 2025 and will be determined by the actual foreign exchange rates achieved by Diageo buying forward contracts for sterling currency, entered into during the three days preceding the sterling equivalent announcement of the interim dividend.
