Volex plc
("Volex" or the "Company")
Scrip Reference Price
As set out in the Company's Preliminary Group Results for the year ended 31 March 2026, a final dividend of 3.2 pence per share is proposed to be paid on 18 September 2026 to those shareholders on the register at 14 August 2026, subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting on 25 August 2026 (the "Final Dividend"). Shareholders may elect to receive the Final Dividend as shares in the Company, in lieu of cash, under the Volex plc Scrip Dividend Scheme (the "Scrip Dividend Scheme").
The reference price of a new ordinary share under the Scrip Dividend Scheme for the Final Dividend has been set at 549.8 pence, which represents the average of the mid-market closing price of the Company's ordinary shares for the five dealing days commencing on the ex-dividend date.
Shareholders who wish to elect to receive the Final Dividend in shares must (i) complete a Scrip Dividend Mandate Form (available on the Company's website) and return it to MUFG Corporate Markets, (ii) make a Scrip election online via https://uk.investorcentre.mpms.mufg.com, or (iii) submit a Dividend Election Input Message in CREST, in each case by no later than 5.00 p.m. on 28 August 2026.
Those shareholders who have opted into a permanent scrip election by completing (and not cancelling) a Scrip Dividend Mandate Form either in hard copy or via https://uk.investorcentre.mpms.mufg.com do not need to complete a new mandate form for the Final Dividend. However, shareholders holding their shares in CREST need to make an election for each dividend and would need to submit a Dividend Election Input Message in respect of the Final Dividend.
Further information, including a copy of the terms and conditions for the Volex plc Scrip Dividend Scheme, are available on the Company's website: https://www.volex.com/investor-relations.
