The board is proposing paying a final dividend of 4.28p per share, taking the total for the year to 5.50p and increasing the total pay-out ratio to 30%, from 25% at the half-year.
Dr Martens has hailed a set of “record results” for the full-year period ending 30 March 2022 with its adjusted pre-tax profits surging 43% to £214.3m, after it revealed it sold “more pairs of boots, shoes, and sandals than at any time in its 62-year history”.
