Prudential Sets FX Terms and Payment Details for 2025 Second Interim Dividend

Prudential ( (GB:PRU) ) has provided an update.

Prudential plc has confirmed details of its 2025 second interim dividend of 18.89 US cents per ordinary share, including a scrip dividend alternative available solely via new shares on the Hong Kong line. Shareholders on the UK and Hong Kong registers who did not opt for US dollar payments will receive cash dividends converted at set exchange rates, resulting in approximately 13.94 pence per share in sterling and HK$1.48 per share in Hong Kong dollars, with associated cash balances for fractional scrip entitlements to be settled in the respective local currencies around 13 May 2026.

The announcement underlines Prudential’s ongoing commitment to shareholder returns while accommodating its diverse international investor base through multi-currency payment options and a standing scrip dividend scheme. By locking in specific FX conversion rates ahead of payment and channelling new shares through the Hong Kong line, the group reinforces its strategic emphasis on Asian markets and provides clarity on timing and mechanics for both cash and share-based distributions.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:PRU) stock is a Buy with a £14.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Prudential stock, see the GB:PRU Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on PRU Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PRU is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by moderate financial quality: a solid, improving leverage profile and restored profitability, tempered by pronounced earnings/revenue and cash-flow volatility (including a sharp 2025 FCF decline). Earnings-call guidance and shareholder-return plans are constructive and lift the outlook, while technicals are the main drag due to bearish momentum and the stock trading below key moving averages. Valuation is supportive given the low P/E, with a modest dividend yield.
