The Second Interim Dividend will be in lieu of the Bovis Homes 2019 final dividend and the payment date of the Second Interim Dividend is in line with the normal final dividend payment timetable. Next Steps Greg Fitzgerald, CEO of Bovis Homes said: "This is an exciting and transformational opportunity to create a leading UK housebuilder with an enhanced customer proposition and the ability to increase delivery to more than 12,000 new homes per year. The combination with Galliford Try Partnerships gives Bovis Homes a market leading position in the high growth, more resilient partnerships market, with significant potential to increase revenue and profit while delivering more affordable homes at a time when they are needed more than ever. I am very focused on successfully integrating these businesses in early 2020 with strong management across all business areas, and on delivering the clear benefits from the combination including at least £35 million of synergies as quickly as possible.
