STRATEC's Annual General Meeting resolves on dividend increase
Birkenfeld, June 6, 2013
At today's Annual General Meeting of STRATEC Biomedical AG (Frankfurt: SBS;
Prime Standard, TecDAX), all items on the meeting's agenda requiring a vote
were approved.
The dividend increase endorsed at the Annual General Meeting represents the
tenth successive rise that STRATEC has distributed to shareholders since
the company started making dividend payments.
For the 2012 financial year, STRATEC will distribute a dividend of EUR 0.56
per share (previous year: EUR 0.55) to its shareholders, corresponding to a
total distribution of EUR 6.6 million. The dividend will be distributed to
shareholders via their custodian banks as of June 10, 2013.
STRATEC's management supported a shareholder motion proposed during the
Annual General Meeting to increase the dividend to EUR 0.56. The proposed
resolution by management initially envisioned a dividend distribution of
EUR 0.50.
At the beginning of his speech at the Annual General Meeting, Marcus
Wolfinger, Chairman of the Board of Management, stated, 'In light of
current information, and due to the improved overall situation since our
initial proposal, we fully support today's motion to increase the dividend
as it enables STRATEC to continue its series of ever-larger dividend
payouts, which so far stands at ten in succession.'
The Annual General Meeting also saw the approval of the Board of
Management's compensation system plus the new compensation structures for
members of the Supervisory Board. Resolutions were also approved regarding
a new stock option program and a corporate contract.
