what happened
British Smaller Companies VCT plc has announced a second interim dividend of 2.0 pence per share for the financial year running to 31 March 2027, according to a notice carried by Dividend Declaration. Shareholders on the register at the close of business on 13 November 2026 will receive the cash on 11 December 2026. The shares will trade ex-dividend from 12 November 2026.
The company said the payout will lower its last reported net asset value by the same 2.0 pence per share. Holders who want to take part in its dividend reinvestment scheme must submit or update their elections by 27 November 2026.
why it matters
For investors this is a cash payment that also reduces the net asset value per share. Companies of this kind are often bought for income, so the ex-dividend date matters for anyone buying before mid-November. The reinvestment option lets holders take new shares instead of cash.
