Dividends

Zalaris will aim to make annual dividend payments of around 50% of net profits before tax. However, this should not negatively influence targeted growth, and the capital structure should remain sound and at a satisfactory level.

When deciding on the final dividend to be proposed for the General Meeting, the Board of Directors will also take into consideration Zalaris’ capital requirements, including legal restrictions, capital expenditure requirements, and potential investment plans.

Zalaris’ overall objective is to create value for its shareholders through an attractive and competitive return, both by increasing the value of the shares and through the distribution of dividends. The dividends paid should reflect the company’s growth and profitability.

Dividend payout is subject to final approval by the General Meeting.
