PRESS RELEASE
APPROVAL OF A GROSS DIVIDEND OF EUR 3.50 PER SHARE
The Annual General Meeting, which took place today, approved Sofina's statutory financial statements relating to financial year 2024, including the appropriation of the result and the distribution of a gross dividend of EUR 3.50 per share, representing a 4.5% increase compared to the previous year.
The dividend will be payable by Euroclear against detachment of coupon nr. 27 on 22 May 2025 (exdate: 20 May 2025 and record date: 21 May 2025).
REMUNERATION REPORT AND AMENDMENTS TO THE REMUNERATION POLICY
The Annual General Meeting approved the Remuneration report for the financial year 2024 and the proposed amendments to the Remuneration policy.
RENEWAL OF DIRECTORS' MANDATES
The Annual General Meeting renewed the director's mandate of M. Harold Boël for a period of three years and the independent director's mandate of Ms. Anja Langenbucher and Ms. Catherine Soubie for a period of four years.
ESTIMATED NAV PER SHARE AT 31 MARCH 2025
Answering a question from a shareholder, the Company also disclosed that the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share at 31 March 2025 is estimated at EUR 300.2 1 , which is 3.71% lower than the NAV per share at 31 December 2024 2 . This estimate has not been reviewed by the Statutory Auditor. The NAV evolution is driven essentially by the weakening of the USD versus EUR and the impact of the dividend liability.
1 Based on 33,067,200 shares outstanding.
2 To produce this number, the Company took into account the impact of (i) foreign exchange evolution since the beginning of the year; (ii) the share price evolution of its listed assets held directly and indirectly; (iii) the Q4 2024 reports from its Private Funds' managers received after the closing of its 2024 financial statements; and (iv) the dividend liability and the liability for directors' fees to be paid in May 2025.
