A cash dividend of GBP 0.03 per share is in focus for FDDMF shares, with the ex-dividend date and record date both fixed at October 23, 2026. Payment follows on November 13, 2026. The declared schedule is semi-annual.

The October 23 threshold

Ex-dividend and record dates landing on the same calendar day collapses the eligibility cut to one session. Shareholders of record on October 23 receive GBP 0.03 per share. Buyers settling on or after that date, under a standard settlement cycle, fall outside this distribution.

That alignment makes October 23 the operative marker for anyone tracking income eligibility on the tape.

The GBP 0.03 print

The declared cash dividend is GBP 0.03 per share, denominated in British pounds sterling. That figure is fixed to this specific corporate action. No conditions, per-share adjustments, or guidance on future payment sizes appear in this announcement.

Three weeks separate the record date from the payment date. Cash reaches qualifying shareholders on November 13, 2026.

What to watch

FDDMF's declared dividend cadence is semi-annual, covering two distributions per annual cycle. This payout is one of those two. No date or amount for the second semi-annual period has been announced.

October 23 is the nearest definitive date on the tape. After that session, November 13 closes the current distribution cycle. The next item to track is a formal declaration for the remaining semi-annual period. No timing for that announcement has been disclosed.
