Dividends

The Company’s dividend policy is to distribute dividend of minimum 10% of the nominal share capital each year, corresponding to DKK 0.125 per share. Besides, the Board of Directors may decide to propose to the General Meeting that this dividend be supplemented with an extraordinary dividend for a specific fiscal year.

However, it is decisive for Columbus to reduce debts and improve financial resources in order to be able to seize any positive development opportunities for continued strengthening of the long-term value creation for the Company. The Board of Directors may therefore decide to deviate from the dividend policy and propose at the General Meeting that dividends are not distributed for a specific fiscal year.
