Milan, 24th February 2022 – BFF Bank S.p.A. ("BFF" or the "Bank") announces that, as communicated by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. with notice n° 5930 of 17th February 2022, on 21st February 2022 American-style option contracts, with BFF shares as underlying, were admitted for trading on the Derivatives Market (IDEM).

In the light of the above, in compliance with the Instructions accompanying the Rules of the Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (Title IA.2, Section IA.2.1, Article IA.2.1.3), the Bank informs that the month scheduled for the detachment of the dividend, if any, based on the 2021 results will be April 2022.

It should also be noted that – as per the press release of last 10th February – BFF's Board of Directors committed to implement all possible initiatives to pay dividends twice a year starting from 2022, in compliance with regulatory requirements: in April based on financial year results, and in August based on the first half-year results, further accelerating the return of capital to shareholders.
