Press release
La Hulpe, 28 April 2023
"The General Assembly voted for the distribution of a gross dividend of € 2.67 per share.
The Board of Directors of Atenor has decided to offer the shareholders the possibility of an optional dividend. During the General Assembly that was held today the shareholders were informed of the concrete procedures relating to the optional dividend, including in particular the issue price and the option period.
The capital increase through the contribution of dividend entitlements will take place on 25 May and will be realized within the scope of the authorised capital.
This method of paying the dividend will allow to strengthen the group's equity, improve the balance sheet ratios and retain liquidities in order to continue the development of all the projects in portfolio.
We are happy to announce that the group's major shareholders have expressed their intention to massively opt for the conversion of their dividend entitlements in capital."
Stéphan Sonneville SA, Managing Director
The General Assembly of the Shareholders held on 28 April 2023 decided to distribute a gross dividend of € 2.87 per share relating to FY 2022.
The dividend net of withholding tax will amount to € 1.869 per ordinary share (30% withholding tax).
The materialisation of this dividend will result in the creation of a number 18 coupon.
Within the framework of this optional dividend, the shareholders will have the choice between:
In the event of the contribution of the net dividend entitlement to the capital, the issue price per new share is set at € 35.511.
It was based on the average closing stock market price of the share during the reference period (from 13 March 2023 till 24 April 2023 included) on the Euronext Brussels market, being € 46.10.
This average price was then calculated with a discount on the issue price to the multiple of the net dividend of € 1.869, i.e. 19 shares.
This multiple constitutes the exchange ratio (number of coupons necessary to subscribe a new share). The application of this multiple leads to the determination of the issue price, which provides a discount on the average price (cum coupon) of 22.97% (or a discount in relation to the average price ex coupon of 18.23%).
The option period during which the shareholders can subscribe to the capital increase will take place from Monday, 8 May 2023 till Monday, 22 May 2023 at 16.00 (CET) included.
Shareholders who do not express a choice during this option period and in the way stipulated for this purpose will receive the dividend in cash.
The amount of the capital increase will be equal to the number of new shares to be issued multiplied by the issue price, being € 35.511 per Atenor share.
The new shares will have the same form, the same ISIN code and will be listed on the same line as the existing shares. The holders of existing registered shares who subscribe to the optional dividend will receive registered shares.
The new shares, to which the no. 19 coupon is attached, issued within the scope of the capital increase, will give the right to a dividend for the 2023 financial year.
Shareholders who want to contribute their dividend entitlements (in full or in part) to the capital of Atenor in exchange for new shares should contact, between 8 May 2023 and 22 May 2023 included:
The financial service for this transaction is provided by Euroclear Belgium. This service is free of charge for Atenor shareholders (subject to any fees charged by the financial institution with which the dematerialised shares are held in account).
The information document relating to the optional dividend and the Special Report of the Board of Directors of the same date will be published on the website of Atenor.
