\n\nNew shares to be issued in connection with the scrip dividend\nalternative

\n\nOn 27 August 2026, Prudential plc (“Prudential”) announced a scrip dividend alternative in\nrespect of the 2026 first interim dividend of 8.88 US cents per\nordinary share (the “Dividend”), offered in accordance with the Evergreen\nScrip Dividend Scheme Terms and Conditions. The scrip dividend\nalternative involves the issuance of relevant new ordinary shares\non the Hong Kong line only. To participate in the scrip dividend\nalternative, shareholders must have held a minimum of 149 ordinary\nshares on the record date for the Dividend (11 September\n2026).

\n\nPrudential announces that 10,916 ordinary shares of 5 pence each\nwill be issued in connection with the scrip dividend alternative\n(the “Shares”). When issued, these Shares will rank pari\npassu with the existing ordinary shares. Up to 4,148 of these\nShares are expected to be sold pursuant to the share dealing\nfacility which Prudential has made available to enable United\nKingdom shareholders to participate in the scrip dividend\nalternative if they cannot provide an address in Hong Kong or\ndetails of a Hong Kong qualifying brokerage account (a requirement\nof holding shares on the Hong Kong line). Further announcements\nwill be made in due course in respect of the admission of the\nShares.

\n\nConsistent with the Board’s policy on scrip and staff\nincentive scheme share issuances, it is intended that any minor\ndilution for shareholders resulting from the scrip issuance will be\nneutralised through the on-market buyback of shares on the London\nStock Exchange.

\n\nFurther details can be found in the Evergreen Scrip Dividend Scheme\nTerms and Conditions available on Prudential’s website\nat www.prudentialplc.com/en/investors/shareholder-information/dividend/scrip-dividend.
