Able to commit to the dividend

Recent market falls have left Henderson High Income Trust (HHI) trading on a 7.3% dividend yield. This is a significant premium to the yield on the UK market, which has been hit by a swathe of dividend cuts. The board are well aware of the reliance that many investors have on the income paid by the trust. Fortunately, HHI’s sources of revenue are diversified and it had revenue reserves of 8.3p per share at the beginning of the year. Given this, the board felt confident enough to announce their intention to maintain the quarterly dividend at 2.475p for the remainder of the trust’s financial year ended 31 December 2020.
