Notice to ASX/LSE Changes to dividend declaration currency and 2024 interim dividend timetable 26 July 2024 Rio Tinto determines its dividends in US dollars, our reporting currency. Historically, Rio Tinto has announced this US dollar amount, as well as the dividend per share in pounds sterling for Rio Tinto plc shareholders and in Australian dollars for Rio Tinto Limited shareholders. However, following changes to Rio Tinto Limited’s constitution approved by shareholders in 2024, Rio Tinto now intends to declare and announce its dividends in US dollars only. Shareholders will continue to have the ability to elect to receive their dividends in pounds sterling, Australian dollars and New Zealand dollars. Payments in these currencies will now be converted from US dollars based on currency conversion rates seven business days prior to the payment date and will be announced to the market on the following business day. Shareholders will also now have the ability to receive their dividends in US dollars at the declared amount.1 Set out below is the updated 2024 interim dividend timetable reflecting the changes to our dividend payment approach. This information replaces the 2024 interim dividend dates set out in the Key Dates announcement released to the ASX and the LSE on 29 November 2023.
