Prudential announces 7.71 US cents interim dividend for 2025

LONDON - Prudential plc (LSE:PRU) has declared its 2025 first interim dividend of 7.71 US cents per ordinary share, according to a press release issued Wednesday.

Shareholders on the UK or Hong Kong registers will receive payments in pounds sterling or Hong Kong dollars respectively, unless they elect to receive US dollars by September 25. The conversion rates for sterling and Hong Kong dollars will be announced around October 2, based on actual rates achieved by Prudential when purchasing those currencies.

American Depositary Receipt holders will receive payments in US dollars through Citibank N.A., while shareholders holding interests through The Central Depository in Singapore will receive payments in Singapore dollars at prevailing market exchange rates.

The company is offering a scrip dividend alternative that will involve issuing new ordinary shares on the Hong Kong line only. A share dealing facility will be available for shareholders unable to hold shares on the Hong Kong line.

The ex-dividend date is set for September 4 across Hong Kong, UK and Singapore markets, with a record date of September 5. Payment dates are scheduled for October 16 for Hong Kong, UK and ADR holders, and around October 23 for Singapore shareholders.

UK register shareholders also have the option to participate in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan instead of the scrip dividend alternative, allowing them to invest their cash dividend directly in Prudential shares in the market.

Prudential provides life and health insurance and asset management services in Greater China, ASEAN, India and Africa. The company maintains dual primary listings on the Hong Kong and London stock exchanges, with secondary listings in Singapore and New York.
