BETA Technologies launches IPO of 25 million shares priced $27-$33
LONDON - Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) announced Wednesday that shareholders representing 3.37% of the company’s issued share capital elected to receive shares instead of cash for the 2025 interim dividend through the company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP).
According to the mining company’s statement, shareholders on the UK register holding 25,584,381 shares (2.17% of issued share capital) chose to receive shares, resulting in the purchase of 46,632 shares at an average price of £27.6999 per share.
On the South African branch register, shareholders holding 14,118,645 shares (1.20% of issued share capital) participated in the DRIP, leading to the acquisition of 24,812 shares at an average price of ZAR649.5887 per share. No shareholders on the Botswanan branch register participated in the program.
The shares delivered to participating shareholders were purchased in the market rather than newly issued by the company. The cash dividend was paid on September 30 to shareholders who did not elect the DRIP option.
The deadline for DRIP elections was September 8 for UK and Botswanan shareholders and September 10 for South African shareholders, following the record date of August 22.
Anglo American’s total issued share capital remains at 1,178,050,272 ordinary shares of US$0.6239 each, with no shares held in treasury.
