Yes, the NGX Group (NGXGROUP) has already been marked for the 1-for-3 bonus share offer.
Based on the corporate action announcement for the 2025 financial year, the critical dates were as follows:
Qualification Date: April 10, 2026
Closure of Register: April 13, 2026
What this means for you today:
Ex-Bonus Status: Since today is May 7, 2026, the stock is already trading "Ex-Bonus." This means that if you buy the shares now, you are no longer entitled to the 1-for-3 bonus issue.
Price Adjustment: You likely noticed a sharp adjustment in the share price shortly after April 10. When a stock goes ex-bonus, the market price is mathematically adjusted downward to reflect the increased number of shares in circulation, though the total value of the company remains the same.
Portfolio Impact: If you held the shares as of the close of business on April 10, your registrar (DataMax) will credit your CSCS account with the additional shares once all regulatory approvals are finalized.
Quick Dividend Reminder
Along with the bonus, the group declared a final dividend of ₦2.00 per share.
Payment Date: This was scheduled for April 29, 2026 (following the AGM).
Status: If you qualified for the bonus, you should have also received this dividend payment via your e-dividend mandate by now.
