Full Summary

Gold Road Resources Limited has announced that the Gold Road Board has determined to pay, conditional on the proposed acquisition by Gruyere Holdings Pty Ltd (GHPL) becoming effective, a fully franked special dividend of $0.43694 per Gold Road share (Special Dividend). The record date for the Special Dividend is expected to be 7.00pm (AEST) Tuesday, 30 September 2025, with payment to occur on Tuesday, 7 October 2025, if the scheme of arrangement becomes effective. The Special Dividend is expected to enable eligible Gold Road shareholders to benefit from franking credits of up to $0.1873 per Gold Road share, though the actual benefit may depend on individual tax circumstances. The Gold Road Board has also resolved to suspend the company's existing Dividend Reinvestment Plan, effective immediately, meaning all shareholders will receive the Special Dividend in cash only. The indicative timetable for the implementation of the scheme of arrangement has also been updated, with the Scheme Meeting scheduled for 2.00pm (AWST) Monday, 22 September 2025 and the Second Court Hearing for 2.15pm (AWST) Thursday, 25 September 2025. The Gold Road Board continues to unanimously recommend that Gold Road shareholders vote in favour of the scheme, in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the independent expert continuing to conclude that the scheme is in the best interests of Gold Road shareholders.
