The Management Board of Pfeiffer Vacuum Technology AG (Pfeiffer Vacuum) decided to propose a dividend of EUR 0.11 per share to the Supervisory Board and the Annual General Meeting, reflecting a total payout of about EUR 1.1 million (previous year: EUR 4.08 dividend; total payout of EUR 40.3 million). The decision to decrease the proposed dividend compared to the previous year was made against the background of increased capital expenditures in fiscal year 2022 and 2023 to position Pfeiffer Vacuum for market share gains and long-term sustainable growth.
