VAT Group AG Shareholders Approve Board Proposals and 12% Dividend Increase

During the Annual General Meeting held in St. Gallen, VAT Group AG shareholders endorsed all proposals from the Board of Directors. A significant outcome was the 12% increase in dividends, now set at CHF 7.00 per share. The meeting saw participation from 449 shareholders, representing 53.7% of the company's share capital.

The re-election of Dr. Martin Komischke as Chairman, along with the confirmation of several board members, was approved. However, Hermann Gerlinger stepped down due to reaching the statutory age limit. Shareholders also supported elections to the Nomination and Compensation Committee.

Other decisions included approval of financial and compensation reports and amendments to the Articles of Association, extending the capital band until 2029. The ex-dividend date is set for April 30, 2026, with payments starting May 5, 2026.
