The Board has declared an interim dividend of 7.0 pence per share.

This means eligible full-time employees who have received 832 Free Shares will be paid a dividend of over £58 on 13 January 2016.

In total, these employees will have received more than £306 in dividend payments since privatisation*.

Eligible part-time employees will receive a dividend based on their pro-rata allocation of Free Shares.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP)

If you have bought Royal Mail shares in your own right, you may have chosen to participate in the DRIP. If you have, you will not receive a dividend payment on these shares. Instead, your dividend payment will be used to buy additional shares. Any cash dividend left over will be rolled over to the next dividend.

Important note: companies do not have to pay dividends. Our Board will decide when and how often we will pay dividends to shareholders, and how much these dividends will be. This will depend on many things, including our company’s performance and future investment plans.

* Eligible full-time employees received around £96 on 31 July 2014; around £48 on 14 January 2015; around £104 on 31 July 2015, and will receive around £58 on 13 January 2016. Eligible part-time employees will also have received dividend payments on these dates, and are due to receive the interim dividend payment on 13 January 2016.
