On the 25th February 2020, the day of the publication of the 2019 full year results, the Board stated that they would propose at the Group's AGM, to be held on 29th May 2020, the payment of a dividend of €0.22 per share, an increase of 47% on the amount declared and paid last year. This is equivalent to €31.5 million (2018: €21.5 million) and represented 29.0% of the adjusted net profit of €108.6 million.
On the 8th April 2020, this proposal was cancelled due to the uncertainty surrounding the financial impact arising from the outbreak of COVID-19. A statement on the 8th April 2020 read as follows: "The Board remains committed to a regular dividend payment to shareholders, but in the current highly uncertain circumstances and in line with the current action to conserve cash and limit cash outflows has taken this step as a matter of prudence. The Board will recommend the re-statement of the dividend as soon as it is appropriate to do so".
Dividend Policy: The company intends to target an annual dividend of approximately 20% of the Group´s adjusted net income.
The amount of the dividend will be proposed by the Company´s Board of Directors and determined by its shareholders at the general shareholders´ meetings.
