SUPERMARKET INCOME REIT PLC - Notice of dividend currency exchange rate (South African rand) and Tax implications for South African shareholders
What this filing means
Supermarket Income REIT has fixed the rand conversion for its first quarterly dividend at 22.02190 ZAR to 1 GBP, turning the 1.575 pence declared on 8 October 2026 into a gross 34.68449 ZAR cents per share for South African shareholders. The filing shows qualifying SA tax residents receiving 26.01337 ZAR cents after 20% UK withholding tax and the effective 5% South African dividends tax. The payout itself is unchanged — this notice supplies the currency rate and the tax arithmetic.
The dividend was decided on 8 October; this notice tells South African holders what it is worth in rand and how the tax steps work. The gross amount is 34.68449 ZAR cents per share. For qualifying SA shareholders who are SA tax residents, the filing shows 26.01337 ZAR cents after UK withholding tax and the effective South African dividends tax — the treatment depends on your own status, so the filing directs holders to their adviser, CSDP or broker. The dividend amount itself has not changed.
AI-generated summary by SENS-AI, based on the original JSE SENS filing.
SENS-AI conclusion
The mechanical follow-up to the 8 October declaration, not a new economic event: the payout stays at 1.575 pence per share, and the only new facts are the conversion rate and the tax arithmetic for South African holders. The rand amount can vary from quarter to quarter if the applicable exchange rate changes; this notice sets the rate only for this dividend. So what: nothing here changes the income case — the payout level itself is what the next quarterly declaration will speak to.
The next quarterly declaration is where the payout level itself gets tested, rather than the exchange rate applied to it.
Evidence from the filing
The rand conversion rate and resulting gross local dividend.
“the currency exchange rate applicable to the First Quarterly Dividend payable in ZAR will be 22.02190 ZAR to 1 GBP (“Exchange Rate”), resulting in a gross local dividend amount of 34.68449 ZAR cents per share”

“On 8 October 2026 the Company announced the declaration of an interim dividend in respect of the period from 1 July 2026 to 30 September 2026 of 1.575 pence per ordinary share”
The dividend is a foreign dividend paid from the UK, so UK withholding tax applies before the SA tax step.
“The First Quarterly Dividend should be regarded as a ‘foreign dividend’ for South African income tax and dividends tax purposes and the funds will be paid from the United Kingdom.”
The net rand amount to SA holders after both tax steps.
“Net PID dividend payable 1.260 26.01337”
