Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the interim dividend payment date of March 27, 2023, referenced in the Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022.
- Confirm that the share acquisitions were non-discretionary dividend reinvestments related to prior bonus or vesting events, rather than open market purchases.
- Note the dual listing prices: EUR 26.62 on the Amsterdam exchange and GBP 23.38 on the London exchange as of March 30, 2023.
- Review the full Annual Report and Form 20-F for comprehensive financial performance data, as this 6-K contains no company-level financial metrics.
