On 20 March 2025 Hong Kong/Singapore time, Prudential plc ("Prudential") announced a scrip dividend alternative would be offered in respect of the 2024 second interim dividend of 16.29 US cents per ordinary share (the "Dividend") in accordance with the Evergreen Scrip Dividend Scheme Terms and Conditions.

 

In order to participate in the scrip dividend alternative, shareholders must have held a minimum of 67 ordinary shares on the record date for the Dividend (28 March 2025). This number was calculated by dividing the Scrip Reference Price (as defined below) by the Dividend and then rounding it up to a whole share.

 

The Scrip Reference Price is the average middle-market price of Prudential's shares on the London Stock Exchange over a five-day dealing period commencing on the ex-dividend date for the Dividend (27 March 2025) and converted to US Dollars using the mid-point WMR spot exchange rates quoted by Bloomberg in London at or around 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday 2 April 2025 (the "Scrip Reference Price").

 

The Scrip Reference Price for the issue of new shares under the scrip dividend alternative in respect of the Dividend is:

US$10.763624 for each new ordinary share
