Manchester & London Investment Trust plc

(the "Company")

Enhanced Dividend Policy

On 24 September 2025 the Company announced it would be pausing on-market share buybacks because the aggregate proportion of the Company’s voting power held by the public (as that term is used in section 446 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010) is now close to the minimum 35 per cent threshold.   The Company paid and/or proposed total dividends last financial year of 28p per Share split between special dividends and ordinary dividends.

Some shareholders have expressed their view to the Manager that the pause of share buybacks   means that total capital returns via dividends and buybacks to shareholders will hence reduce.

We have listened and the Company would like to announce that it intends to pay at least 40p per share per annum ordinary dividend for the next five years (representing an Annual Yield of 5.01 per cent based on the closing share price of 798p on 22 October 2025) even if a mechanism is found and executed that allowed share buybacks to continue.

Dan Wright, Chairman of the Company, said:  

“In essence, this makes Manchester & London a unique fund on the London Market that is both exposed to global growth and the opportunities of the Era of Artificial Intelligence, whilst also paying an attractive dividend income which can be relied upon for, at least, the next five years.”
