Reappointments to the VERBUND Supervisory Board adopted

The mandates of four elected members of the Supervisory Board, namely those of Christa Schlager, Jürgen Roth, Stefan Szyszkowitz and Peter Weinelt, expired at today’s Annual General Meeting. At the regular election of the Supervisory Board, all four existing members of the Supervisory Board were reappointed for the duration of (a further) three years.

With today’s election, four women continue to sit on the Supervisory Board for the capital representatives, and the proportion of women on the VERBUND Supervisory Board is 40%, both amongst the shareholder representatives and amongst the 15-member Supervisory Board as a whole. 

The former chairperson Martin Ohneberg was confirmed in his position at the subsequently convened meeting of the Supervisory Board. Edith Hlawati was confirmed as first deputy chairperson and Christine Catasta as second deputy chairperson.

Dividend 2022

At the Annual General Meeting, a dividend of €3.60 per share for financial year 2022 was proposed and accepted: this dividend comprises an ordinary dividend of €2.44 per share and a special dividend of €1.16 per share. The shareholders participate in the extraordinarily positive business development of the company in financial year 2022 through the one-off special dividend.

Since the Annual General Meetings were held as purely virtual events in 2020 to 2022 due to the pandemic, the 76th ordinary Annual General Meeting was once again held in classical form as an attendance event.
