FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT IN RESPECT OF THE DIVIDEND FOR THE SIX MONTHS
ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2020
Atlantic Leaf shareholders are referred to the announcement released on Tuesday, 28 April 2020 which
included the declaration of a cash dividend of 4.5 GBP pence per share (the “Dividend”) for the six months
ended 28 February 2020 and are advised that 100% of the Dividend will be paid as a Property Income
Distribution (“PID”) which will be subject to a deduction of a 20% UK withholding tax unless exemptions
apply.
The Dividend should be regarded as a "foreign dividend" (to be paid out of the United Kingdom) for South
African income tax and South African dividend tax purposes.
The salient dates and times announced on Tuesday, 28 April 2020 remain unchanged. The Dividend is payable
on Monday, 25 May 2020.
The Company confirms that shareholders on the South African share register will receive their cash Dividend
in ZAR, converted at an exchange rate of GBP 1.00 : ZAR 22.63870 representing the buy-rate at
approximately 17:00 (South African time) on 11 May 2020. Accordingly, the Dividend will be paid as follows:
PID Mauritian Shareholders South African Shareholders
(GBP pence per share) (ZAR cents per share)
Gross amount of PID 4.50000 101.87415
Less 20% UK withholding tax (0.90000) (20.37483)
Net PID Dividend payable by the Company 3.60000 81.49932
Less 5% South African dividends tax n/a (5.09371)
Reclaim 5% from HMRC 0.22500 5.09371
Net PID Dividend receivable by shareholders 3.82500 81.49932
A 20% UK withholding tax will be deducted from cash PIDs. The Company will account to Her Majesty's
Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) in GBP for the total UK withholding tax deducted. Under the double tax
agreements between the UK and Mauritius and between the UK and South Africa, the maximum tax payable
in the UK is 15%. South African and Mauritian resident shareholders are therefore entitled to claim a 5%
rebate from HMRC in terms of the respective double tax agreements.
There is no further dividend withholding tax payable in Mauritius.
South African dividends tax, at a rate of 20%, will apply to cash PIDs to the extent that the Company shares
are held on the South African share register, unless the beneficial owner of the dividend is exempt from
dividends tax (e.g. if it is a South African resident company). South African resident shareholders can,
however, claim a rebate against the South African dividends tax for UK withholding tax paid. Accordingly,
15% of the UK withholding tax may be claimed as a rebate against the 20% South African dividends tax and
a 5% dividend tax will be paid.
South African individual shareholders
A 20% tax will be withheld in the UK, a further 5% will be withheld in South Africa, but South African
resident shareholders will be entitled to claim back 5% from HMRC resulting in a withholding tax of 20%
(15% in the UK and 5% in South Africa).
South African corporate shareholders
A 20% tax will be withheld in the UK, but South African resident shareholders will be entitled to claim back
5% from HMRC resulting in a withholding tax of 15%.
The number of shares in issue as at the date of this announcement is 188,976,628 ordinary shares.
