Equity Capital Markets Analyst

Administrative listing for scrip dividend; neutral impact.

Prudential plc plans to list 2,175,535 new ordinary shares tied to its scrip dividend alternative for the 2025 first interim dividend. Admission is expected on 16 October 2025, and the shares will rank pari passu with existing stock.

This is a routine equity issuance associated with a stock dividend election, not a capital raise. A portion—16,166 shares—supports a UK share dealing facility, which helps eligible holders participate.

The practical effect depends on shareholder uptake of the scrip alternative; no cash proceeds are indicated in the excerpt. Subsequent disclosures may quantify final issuance from the dividend election.
