Shareholders who had completed their e-dividend registration were scheduled to receive their payments electronically before the close of business on May 15, 2025.

At the meeting, all company directors were re-elected by the shareholders. This was the first Annual General Meeting (AGM) following the company’s listing on the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) on November 20, 2024. Haldane McCall Plc released its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, reporting a pre-tax profit of N252.5 million, a modest increase compared to N250.6 million recorded in the same period of the previous year.
