Siemens to pay dividend of €4.00 per share
“In fiscal 2021,
we kept our company on track in difficult times while further expanding our
power of innovation. Our businesses’ strong growth and high profitability speak
for themselves,” said Jim Hagemann Snabe, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of
Siemens AG. “The basis for this success was Siemens’ move to reinvent itself early
on and from a position of strength. In times of great change and uncertainty,
the orderly transition to the new Managing Board team was an invaluable
advantage for our company, too.”
“We’ve had a
very successful start as a focused technology company. Siemens can combine the
real and digital worlds like no other company. We master the interplay of
hardware and software to help customers accelerate their own digital and
sustainable transformation. This unique Siemens strength is reflected in our
extraordinary business results – from which our shareholders are also profiting.
With a progressive dividend policy, strong share price performance and our
share buyback program, we offer a highly attractive total shareholder return,” said Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG.
Active
shareholder participation in the virtual Annual Shareholders’ meeting was
extremely important to Siemens in view of the restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For this reason, the company published the focal points of the speeches by
Supervisory Board Chairman Jim Hagemann Snabe and President and CEO Roland
Busch on the Internet already on February 3, 2022. In addition, properly registered
shareholders and their proxies could submit statements relating to the agenda
in advance of the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting for publication via the dedicated
Internet service. Video statements were also shown during the Annual
Shareholders’ Meeting.
Detailed voting results on the individual agenda items at the Annual
Shareholders’ Meeting are published at www.siemens.com/agm.
