Proposed dividend again on a high level
Proposed dividend again on a high level
The Executive Board and Supervisory Board intend to propose to the Annual General Meeting on 7 May 2014 that a dividend of EUR 3.00 per share be distributed. The proposed distribution is thus at the upper end of the strategically planned payout ratio of 35% to 40% of Group net income after tax. Based on the year-end closing price of EUR 62.38, this produces a dividend yield of 4.8%.
