Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Ryanair Holdings plc has filed a Form 6-K outlining its proposed FY25 final dividend of €0.227 per ordinary share. The distribution is conditional on shareholder approval at the 11 September 2025 AGM.

• Key timetable: ex-dividend 7 Aug 2025, record date 8 Aug, tax/mandate cut-off 15 Aug, cheques posted 17 Sep, cash payment 18 Sep.
• Dividends will be paid in euro via Euroclear or CREST; other holders may elect local-currency payments through MUFG’s International Payments Service by submitting an IPS mandate by 15 Aug.
• A 25 % Dividend Withholding Tax applies unless a valid exemption form is on file by the same 15 Aug deadline.

No earnings or guidance are provided; the document is strictly procedural. If approved, the payout continues Ryanair’s cash-return policy and may be viewed as a sign of operating cash-flow strength.

Positive

• Cash return: Proposal to distribute €0.227 per share underscores continued shareholder-return commitment.
• Clear timeline: Detailed ex-dividend, record and payment dates allow investors to plan positions.
• Payment flexibility: International Payments Service enables non-euro investors to receive local-currency dividends.

Negative

• Contingent approval: Dividend is not final until shareholders vote at the 11 Sep 2025 AGM.
• Withholding tax: 25 % DWT reduces net amount for investors lacking exemptions, adding administrative burden.

Insights

Equity Research Analyst

TL;DR – Proposed €0.227 dividend signals confidence; limited financial detail, modest positive.

Ryanair’s FY25 final dividend equals roughly €0.227 per share, in line with its stated shareholder-return framework and payable 18 September, pending AGM approval. While the filing lacks earnings data, the willingness to distribute cash after a capital-intensive fleet expansion suggests robust liquidity and free cash flow. Investors gain clarity on ex-dividend and tax deadlines, aiding portfolio planning. Because the amount represents a routine annual distribution rather than an exceptional payout, the news is incrementally positive but not transformative.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR – Governance compliant, but dividend hinges on AGM vote; neutral impact.

The notice adheres to Irish corporate-law requirements, giving shareholders advance information on dividend mechanics, tax treatment and election options. The dependence on AGM approval is standard practice and poses minimal risk, given historic voting patterns. No governance red flags emerge. Overall impact is procedural and neutral, with value primarily in administrative clarity.

RYANAIR HOLDINGS PLC - FINAL DIVIDEND FOR FY25

Dividend Information

Ryanair Holdings plc is pleased to announce that the proposed FY25 final dividend (subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 11 September 2025) of €0.227 per ordinary share will be payable to shareholders on the register of members at close of business on 8 August 2025. The dividend will be paid on 18 September 2025.

Dividends Payments

Dividends will be paid in euro to all shareholders. Shareholders holding their shares via the central securities depository operated by Euroclear Bank or via CREST will receive dividends electronically via such systems.

However, in order to avoid inconvenience to overseas shareholders, other than those holding their shares via the central securities depository operated by Euroclear Bank or via CREST, when negotiating euro cheques, the Company has arranged that its registrar, MUFG Corporate Markets (Ireland) Limited (the "Registrar"), will provide an International Payments Service ("IPS"), whereby dividends can be paid to those shareholders in their local currency. If shareholders wish to have their dividend paid in a currency other than Euro then they must complete an IPS mandate which can be obtained from the Registrar and will be available on their website https://www.mpms.mufg.com/en/for-individuals/ie/shareholders/international-payment-service/. This election form must be completed and received by MUFG Corporate Markets (Ireland) Limited, PO Box 7117, Dublin 2, Ireland (by post) or to MUFG Corporate Markets (Ireland) Limited, Suite 149, The Capel Building, Mary's Abbey, Dublin 7, D07 DP79, Ireland (by hand during normal business hours) by close of business on 15 August 2025.

For shareholders, other than those holding their shares via the central securities depository operated by Euroclear Bank or via CREST, dividends will be paid by cheque and will be sent by ordinary post on 17 September 2025. Alternatively, if you are in the Single Euro Payments Area ("SEPA") you can update your bank details on the Registrar's share portal www.signalshares.com. You will need your Investor Code ("IVC") to register on the portal and this can be found on your share certificate, dividend counterfoil or previously issued proxy form.

Dividend Withholding Tax (DWT) currently deducted at a rate of 25%, must be deducted from dividends paid by an Irish resident company, unless a shareholder is entitled to an exemption and has submitted a properly completed exemption form to the Registrar. Non-resident shareholders and certain Irish companies, trusts, pension schemes, investment undertakings and charities may be entitled to claim exemption from DWT. Copies of the form may be obtained online from the Irish Revenue Commissioners. Shareholders should note that DWT will be deducted from dividends in cases where a properly completed form has not been received by the market deadline date for a dividend, which is Friday, 15 August 2025 in this case. Individuals who are resident in Ireland for tax purposes are not entitled to an exemption. If shares are held via Euroclear Bank or via CREST, the owners of the shares will need to contact the intermediary through whom the shares are held to ascertain their arrangements and cut-off times for tax relief for eligible investors to be applied at source.
