Adept increases dividend by 50%

Adept has announced to the Stock Exchange that it is hiking its dividend by 50%.

"There can be no greater sign of confidence in our business model," said Chief Executive Ian Fishwick.

"Historically, we have always announced half of our dividend at the Half Year, so by announcing 2.25p per share for the half year we are flagging our intention to pay 4.5p per share for the full year to March 2015.

"We have also given guidance that we intend to increase our dividends further over the next two years to 5.5p and then 6.5p.

"Revenue is up 11.3% and EBITDA up 12.7% thus demonstrating clear economies of scale. Our Free Cash Flow conversion in the Half Year was an impressive 92%."
