Dividend Policy
The Board maintains the following dividend policy that was first published in the July-September 2011 interim report:
The Board’s intention is to continue to provide an ordinary dividend to the shareholders, based primarily on the cashflow from operations, after investments. In the event that the Board considers that the liquidity exceeds the amount needed to support the operational requirements and strategic objectives, the Board has the option to propose an extraordinary dividend or a share buy-back to further adjust the liquidity.
Proposed Dividend 2026
The Board of Directors propose an ordinary dividend of SEK 3.00 per share (SEK 6.00 per share) with an extraordinary dividend of SEK 0.00 (SEK 1.00 per share), representing a distribution of SEK 21.1 million (SEK 49.5 million) to the shareholders of SinterCast AB (publ) for the financial year 2025, with SEK 1.00 paid in May and SEK 2.00 paid in November (two equal payments of SEK 3.50 per share). The Board proposes 21 May 2026 as the record date for the first dividend payment and 16 November 2026 as the record date for the second dividend payment. In deciding the amount of the ordinary dividend to be proposed to the AGM 2026, the Board considered cashflow from operations, the financial position, investment requirements including funding headroom for inorganic growth, and other factors, such as market outlook, growth strategy and the internal financial forecast for the Group.
