ANZ 2018 Final Dividend – key dates and information

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited ABN 11 005 357 522
News Release
For release: 31 October, 2018
ANZ 2018 Final Dividend
- key dates and associated information -

As part of ANZ’s full-year 2018 financial results released today, the Group announced a
proposed fully franked 2018 Final Dividend of 80 cents per share. New Zealand imputation
credits of NZ 10 cents per share will also be attached.

ANZ also announced an intention to neutralise the impact of the shares allocated under the
Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP). DRP participants do not need to take any action in
respect of this in order to receive shares under the DRP.

The neutralisation of the DRP is expected to involve ANZ ordinary shares being purchased
on-market during the DRP Pricing Period by a third party appointed by ANZ. To the extent
that the on-market purchase is not able to be completed for any reason, then ANZ will issue
new ordinary shares to meet its obligations under the DRP.
