The directors have announced a dividend of 2.2p per ordinary share for the second quarter of 2021 to shareholders. Winkworth’s shares are traded on the AIM market.

Following an exceptionally strong performance in the sales division by the network in the first half of 2021, with preliminary figures indicating that revenues exceeded those achieved for the whole of 2020, the Directors will also pay a special dividend of 2.6p per ordinary share at the same time as the second quarter dividend.

Added to the 2.2p ordinary dividend and the 1.3p special dividend paid for the first quarter, this brings total dividends declared for the first half of 2021 to 8.3p per ordinary share. In the same period in 2020, the dividend was 3.08p.
