SOUTHERN WATER SERVICES (FINANCE) LIMITED
DIVIDENDS AND FINANCIAL RESILIENCE
The board of Southern Water Services Limited (Southern Water) has reviewed its AMP7 execution plan covering the period 2020 - 2025, in the light of the developing impact of COVID19. As a regulated entity, Southern Water is afforded a level of operational and financial resilience that targets continuity of service for our customers through these challenging times.
In the short term, however, there will be some impact on our financial resilience, the extent of which is currently uncertain as the full impact of COVID19 continues to take effect. During this period our focus is on maintaining our core water and wastewater services, health and safety, and increasing the breadth of support offered to our vulnerable customers. The shape of subsequent recovery is unknown but we are working with our Regulators, Water UK, our supply chain, and Government to ensure an effective transition to the new normal for our customers, business, and the wider economy.
The company's focus is on delivering our large investment programme and ensuring those benefits accrue to our customers efficiently over the AMP. This includes explicitly targeting, in the execution plan, a gearing target of 70% net debt to RCV over the AMP. Consistent with Southern Water's dividend policy, the board has resolved that the company will not pay any dividends until it is clear that to do so would not be detrimental to the company's financial resilience.
