I think a major shareholder may have signed an agreement to sell his shares with the agreement that he collects dividends for financial year ended.

Why not just take 1.20 less WHT more for the shares?

Getting a dividend one day early sure beats getting no dividend for 6 years Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

It will still be payable on the balance sheet because the payment date is beyond 30 September.

They should then state as much instead of peddling a lie in the notice that "The change in register closure date shall result in earlier payment of dividends to shareholders"

Yes, agreed. Why even close the register on 2nd Oct i.e. cross into another reporting period?
