Dividend History

The dividend is declared and paid out in Rand for the holders of ordinary shares. For investors in the depositary receipt (ADR) on the NYSE, the dividends are paid out in US dollars.

Sasol declares dividends semi-annually in March and September respectively.

An interim gross cash dividend of South African 590 cents per ordinary share (31 December 2017 – 500 cents per ordinary share) has been declared for the six months ended 31 December 2018. The cash dividend is payable on the ordinary shares and the Sasol BEE ordinary shares. The Board is satisfied that the liquidity and solvency of the company, as well as capital remaining after payment of the dividend is sufficient to support the current operations for the ensuing year. The dividend has been declared out of retained earnings (income reserves). The South African dividend withholding tax rate is 20%. At the declaration date, there are 624 606 120 ordinary and 6 331 347 Sasol BEE ordinary shares in issue. The net dividend amount payable to shareholders who are not exempt from the dividend withholding tax, is 472 cents per share, while the dividend amount payable to shareholders who are exempt from dividend withholding tax is 590 cents per share.
