SCRIP Dividend Scheme
What is the SCRIP Dividend Scheme?
The SCRIP Dividend Scheme provides Shareholders the opportunity to receive dividends in New Shares instead of cash (provided a scrip dividend alternative is offered).
SCRIP dividends enable Shareholders to increase their holding in the Company in a simple manner without incurring any dealing costs or stamp duty. At the same time, the Company will retain more cash in its business, which would otherwise be paid as a dividend.
How do I join the SCRIP Dividend Scheme?
The SCRIP dividend Scheme Booklet and the Mandate Form provide full details on the SCRIP and how to join. These can be downloaded using the link below.
What will the SCRIP reference price for the next dividend be?
The reference price for the next interim dividend will be announced via RNS and on this website in due course.
Further questions
For general enquiries about the Scheme, please contact Link on 0371 664 0321. Lines are open 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. Monday to Friday (except UK public holidays). Calls to the helplines from outside the UK will be charged at applicable international rates. Calls may be recorded and randomly monitored for security and training purposes. The helpline cannot provide advice on the merits of the Scrip Dividend Scheme nor give any person financial, legal or tax advice.
Types of dividend
The Company and its subsidiaries operate as a UK Group REIT. Subject to continuing compliance with certain rules, the UK REIT rules exempt the profits of the Group’s property rental business from UK corporation tax.
The Company can pay dividends of two types. Firstly, the dividend may be paid as a Property Income Distribution (“PID”) which is payable from income generated by the Company’s qualifying UK property rental business. Secondly, the dividend may be paid as a Non-Property Income Distribution (“non-PID”) which is payable on property rental business prior to entry into the REIT regime and/or from the Company’s residual business activities, or a mixture of the two.
Profits distributed as PID dividends are paid out of tax-exempt profits and therefore are potentially fully taxable in shareholders’ hands as property letting income. PID dividends are normally paid after deduction of withholding tax at the basic rate of income tax (20%), which the REIT pays to HMRC on behalf of the shareholder. Certain classes of shareholder are eligible to receive gross PID dividends. Examples of such classes are:
– UK Companies
– Charities
– Local Authorities
– UK Pension Schemes
– Managers of PEPs and ISAs
Forms for claiming exemption from withholding tax on PID dividend payments are provided below
