Announcement of Fourth Interim Dividend
Momentum Multi-Asset Value Trust plc, which seeks to apply a value lens to identify the most compelling investment opportunities across a highly diversified range of asset classes, has today declared a fourth interim dividend in respect of the year ended 30 April 2022 of 2.16p per share, which will be payable on 20 June 2022 to shareholders on the register on 6 June 2022, with an ex-dividend date of 1 June 2022.
The increase in the fourth interim dividend to 2.16p per share represents a total increase in dividends for the financial year to 30 April 2022 of 7.1% compared to the previous year (7.20p per share v 6.72p per share). The Board has previously made clear its intention to increase dividends by at least inflation over a typical investment cycle. The total dividend of 7.20p per share for the year represents an increase of 17.3% over five years which compares to inflation of 16.6% over the same period, as measured by the CPI.
It is the Board's intention, barring unforeseen circumstances, to at least maintain the aggregate dividends for the year to 30 April 2023 at 7.20p per share, meaning a quarterly rate of 1.80p per share. Given the outlook for inflation, it is very likely the fourth interim dividend next year will be higher than 1.80p per share consistent with the Board's intention to increase dividends by at least inflation over the longer run.
