Octopus AIM VCT 2 plc
Dividend Declaration and Allotment Date Update
The Board of Octopus AIM VCT 2 plc (the “Company”) announces that it has
declared a special dividend of 3.6 pence per share. The dividend will be paid
on 8 April 2026 to shareholders on the register as at 13 March 2026. The
ex-dividend date will be 12 March 2026.
The dividend primarily represents significant recent sales of holdings in
portfolio companies, including Intelligent Ultrasound Group, Learning
Technologies, and Breedon Group. The Board has determined that it is
appropriate to distribute the profits realised from these disposals to
shareholders.
In addition, the Company is pleased to confirm that the first allotment of
shares under the Company's offer for subscription that was launched on 12
January 2026 will take place on 9 March 2026, in respect of applications and
payments received prior to 5pm on 4 March 2026. These shares will be allotted
ahead of the ex-dividend date and will therefore qualify for the special
dividend.
