This year's Annual General Meeting of SBO AG, listed on the ATX of the Vienna Stock Exchange, approved to use the retained earnings of MEUR 24.7 reported in 2025 to pay a dividend of EUR 0.75 per share. This corresponds to a payout ratio of 50%. The remaining amount will be carried forward to new account. The dividend payment date is 13 May 2026.
The Annual General Meeting discharged the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board for the 2025 financial year and adopted the submitted remuneration report and the remuneration policy for the members of the Executive Board.
In addition, the Annual General Meeting resolved to increase the number of Supervisory Board members elected by the Annual General Meeting from five to six. Wolfram Littich, whose term of office ended at today’s Annual General Meeting, was re-elected for another term. Franz Viehböck, CEO of Berndorf AG, was newly elected to the Supervisory Board. He brings extensive expertise in the areas of space and aerospace, technology, innovation, and international business development to the Supervisory Board. With this step, SBO further strengthens the Supervisory Board’s professional depth and governance expertise.
Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting authorized the Executive Board, for a maximum duration of 30 months from the date of adoption of the resolution, to buy back shares of up to 10% of the share capital of the company and to call in or resell own shares purchased, without requiring another resolution by the Annual General Meeting and to determine the conditions for selling.
