Virtual Annual General Meeting of Telefónica Deutschland resolves upon a
dividend payment of EUR 506 million for the 2019 financial year
Today, Telefónica Deutschland successfully held the company's first virtual
Annual General Meeting (AGM) according to the 'COVID-19
Auswirkungsbekämpfungsgesetz' via webcast without physical presence of
shareholders or their proxies. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, shareholders
were able to address their questions to the company in writing ahead of time
and subsequently decide on important topics such as the election of the
Supervisory Board and the dividend for the 2019 financial year.
CEO, Markus Haas, and CFO, Markus Rolle, provided information from the
company's headquarters in Munich about the company's good operational and
financial performance in 2019 and explained how they intend to invest and
achieve profitable growth in the coming years. Shareholders were able to
connect via webcast using PC, tablet or smartphone.
At the virtual AGM, the shareholders approved a dividend of EUR 0.17 per
share for the 2019 financial year with 98.92% of the votes of the capital
present. This corresponds to a dividend distribution of EUR 506 million.
The shareholders also voted with a large majority to discharge the members
of the management board and the supervisory board for the 2019 financial
year and the continued appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH as
auditor. Peter Löscher was elected also with a large majority to the
Supervisory Board as a shareholder representative.
The virtual presence of shareholders at the AGM was 87%. Despite the virtual
format, this is close to the number of shareholders attending previous
physical AGMs of the company.
