Completion of Capital Reduction
As outlined in the Company's prospectus dated 17 June 2019 (the
"Prospectus") and pursuant to a resolution of the Company passed on
24 May 2019, the Company is pleased to announce that it has
completed a reduction of its share capital and share premium
account (the "Capital Reduction"). The Capital Reduction was
formally approved by the High Court on 22 October 2019. The Court
Order confirming the Capital Reduction, and a statement of capital
approved by the Court, have been registered with the Registrar of
Companies and accordingly the Capital Reduction is now
effective.
The purpose of the Capital Reduction was to create distributable
reserves to support the Company's dividend policy set out in its
prospectus. This has been effected by cancelling and extinguishing
50,000 redeemable deferred shares of GBP1.00 each in the Company
and reducing the amount standing to the credit of the share premium
account of the Company to zero.
There are no changes to the number of the Company's ordinary
shares in issue, or their nominal value, as a result of the Capital
Reduction. As at the date of this announcement and following
completion of the Capital Reduction, the Company has 3,758,151,504
ordinary shares of US$0.50 each in issue with one vote, and
3,081,744,577 non-voting deferred shares of US$0.50 each in
issue.
