Zenith Bank Plc has announced the payment of an interim dividend of N1.25 per 50 kobo share to its shareholders for the half-year period ended June 30, 2025. The payout, which is subject to withholding tax, will go to shareholders whose names appear in the company’s Register of Members as at the close of business on October 3, 2025.
According to the bank, the dividend will be paid electronically on October 10, 2025, to qualified shareholders who have completed their e-dividend registration and mandated the Registrar to credit their bank accounts directly. Holders of Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) will receive payment after this date.
Zenith Bank confirmed that there will be no bonus issue alongside the dividend. The Register of Members will be closed on October 6, 2025 to enable proper processing of entitlements.
The bank urged shareholders yet to complete their e-dividend registration to download the E-Dividend Mandate Activation Form from the website of its Registrar, Veritas Registrars Limited, complete the form, and submit it to either the Registrar or their banks. It also advised those with unclaimed dividend warrants or share certificates to regularise their records to ensure smooth payment.
