Virtual Annual General Meeting of Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG resolves
upon a dividend payment of EUR 0.18 per share for FY20
Today, Telefónica Deutschland successfully held the company's virtual annual
general meeting for the financial year 2020 via webcast without the physical
presence of shareholders or their proxies due to the ongoing COVID 19
restrictions. Shareholders were able to address their questions to the
company in advance of the annual general meeting and pass resolutions on
important topics such as the election of the supervisory board and the
dividend for the financial year 2020.
CEO, Markus Haas, and CFO, Markus Rolle, provided information from the
company's headquarters in Munich about a successful start to the company's
growth era. The business model is proving resilient while not immune to the
global COVID 19 impacts. The company intends to build on this growth
momentum in the financial year 2021 and focuses on strategy execution.
At the virtual annual general meeting, the shareholders approved a dividend
of EUR 0.18 per share for FY20 with 99.7% of the votes of the capital
present. This corresponds to a dividend distribution of around EUR 535
million.
Stefanie Oeschger and Ernesto Gardelliano were elected as members of the
supervisory board with a large majority. The shareholders also voted by a
large majority to discharge the members of the management board and the
supervisory board for the financial year 2020 as well as to approve the
respective remuneration policy for the two bodies. PricewaterhouseCoopers
GmbH was re-elected as (group) auditor.
The annual general meeting also approved new authorised capital. This is
purely an anticipatory resolution to maintain the company's financial
flexibility; currently there are no specific plans regarding its
utilisation.
The presence of shareholders at the virtual annual general meeting was
around 86%.
