Share dealing
Johnson Matthey Plc shares can be traded through most banks, building societies or stockbrokers. The commission charged for buying and selling shares will vary between organisations. Our registrars, Equiniti, offer a telephone and internet dealing service for our UK shareholders. For more information, including Equiniti's terms and conditions and details of their fees, visit Equiniti's website.
Johnson Matthey Plc does not endorse or recommend any particular share dealing service.
Dividend
Dividend payments: Shareholders can arrange for dividends to be paid to their bank account or change existing instructions. To arrange this via our registrars, you will first need to register on Equiniti's website and set up an online portfolio, then provide your dividend payment instructions online. Alternatively, you can also complete the Dividend Instruction Form and return it by post to the address shown on the form.
Dividend tax vouchers: We send consolidated tax vouchers to shareholders every February. If you have set up on online portfolio on our registrar's website, you will receive a tax voucher with every dividend payment which is available to download via your online portfolio.
Dividend history: Details of the dividend history are available in our dividend archive.
Dividend reinvestment: We offer a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) which allows our UK shareholders to use cash dividends to purchase additional shares in the company. In some cases, non-UK shareholders can also take part in the plan. Shareholders can join the DRIP through our registrars.
Read the terms and conditions and information on charges (PDF) before deciding whether or not to proceed. If you are a non-UK shareholder it is your responsibility to ascertain whether or not you can take part in the DRIP and for complying with all necessary formalities.
Shareholder voting
Shareholders can vote online in advance of our Annual General Meetings. Voting results from JM’s AGMs are available in our AGM archive.
Electronic communications
As we look to minimise our impact on the planet and its resources, we encourage shareholders to do the same. Shareholders can receive shareholder documents via our website rather than in hard copy form by post. An email alert is sent when shareholder documents are ready to view or download from our website. If you receive hard copy shareholder documents and would prefer to receive them via our website and email alerts, please register on Equiniti's website.
Annual General Meetings
AGMs offer shareholders the opportunity to vote on Board recommendations and ask questions to the directors. Johnson Matthey welcomes shareholders to attend its AGMs either in person, via webcast or via telephone conference.

Protecting your shareholding
Over the past few years, many companies have become aware that their shareholders have been contacted out of the blue with offers to buy or sell shares. The callers can be very persistent and extremely persuasive. They may offer to sell shares that turn out to be worthless or non-existent, or to buy shares at an inflated price in return for an upfront payment. While high profits are promised, shareholders often lose money. The Financial Conduct Authority estimates that victims lose an average of £20,000. It is not just the novice investor that has been duped in this way; many of the victims had been successfully investing for several years.
Shareholders are advised to be very wary of any unsolicited advice, offers to buy shares at a discount or offers of free company reports.

Johnson Matthey Plc is obliged by law to make its share register available for inspection and as a consequence some shareholders may receive unsolicited mail.
