VERBUND AG announced that its executive board has resolved to propose to the 2024 Annual General Meeting the distribution of a special dividend of ?0.75 per share (prior year: ?1.16 per share) for financial year 2023. The special dividend will allow shareholders to participate in the Group?s extraordinarily positive business performance for financial year 2023 by means of a higher payout, among other things. Distribution of the dividends must be approved by the Supervisory Board at the meeting at which the annual financial statements are to be approved and also requires the approval of the shareholders of the company at the 2024 Annual General Meeting.
