Dividend Analyst

Board declared an interim dividend of $0.29 per share for 3Q25; key dates set for early 2026.

Diversified Energy will pay an interim dividend of $0.29 per share for the three‑month period ended September 30, 2025. The announcement sets a Record Date of February 27, 2026 and a Payment Date of March 31, 2026, with payment default in US dollars and a sterling election option available.

Dependencies and risks include the mechanics of the currency election process and a date inconsistency in the release: the table lists a last date for currency election of March 6, 2026 while one sentence states submission by March 6, 2025; that conflict requires clarification from the company and affects shareholders seeking sterling payment. The company also says it will announce the sterling value approximately two weeks before the payment date.

Watch the company for clarification of the currency election deadline and the announced sterling amount ahead of March 31, 2026; these items determine operational execution for payments and investor planning.
