The Board of Directors of Hearts and Minds Investments Limited (ASX: HM1) has declared an increased final FY25 fully franked
dividend of 9.0 cents per share, payable in October 2025. This represents a fully franked 5.9% yield and a grossed-up yield of 8.5%
on the HM1 share price at 30 June 2025.
Given the strong level of franking capacity, the Board is focused on releasing these franking credits to shareholders through
sustainable and growing fully franked dividends. The Board intends to increase fully-franked dividends by 0.5 cps every 6 months
for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, shareholders should expect a fully franked dividend of 9.5c to be paid with our FY26 half
year result and total dividends of 19.5c to be paid with respect to the FY26 year. This policy of increasing dividends is subject to
there being no sustained period of investment market underperformance.

HM1 investment performance is calculated after expenses and before Australian taxes. The comparator is the MSCI World Accumulation in AUD; gross of withholding tax. Figures at 30 June 2025
