Beter Bed Holding N.V. (BBH) - the Netherlands' largest sleep specialist in retail, wholesale and B2B - held its 2022 Annual General Meeting (AGM) today. BBH is pleased to announce that all resolutions, including the 2021 financial statements and dividend proposal, were adopted. The AGM presentation as well as the voting results will be published onwww.beterbedholding.com.
Dividend
BBH has made significant progress on its revised strategy, as announced in May 2021. The continued strong performance over 2021 reflects the underlying strength of the strategic transformation. In light of the strength of the financial position and financial performance, the Management Board, with the approval from the Supervisory Board, resolved to amend the dividend policy to align it with BBH's ambition for sustainable growth.
Today, the AGM declared a dividend of € 0.15 per ordinary share of nominally € 0.02 each for the 2021 financial year, in light with the revised policy. The dividend will be distributed fully in cash. The following schedule will apply to the payment of the dividend:
13 May 2022: listing ex-dividend
16 May 2022: record date
From 23 May 2022: payment of dividend
BBH's revised dividend policy focuses on maximising shareholder value while maintaining a healthy capital position. On an annual basis, the Supervisory Board, on proposal of the Management Board, will assess the amount of dividend that will be proposed to the AGM.
