Dividend
The Group is pursuing its commitment to paying out at least 80% of attributable net profit in dividends.
At their Annual Meeting held on May 14, 2019, Edenred shareholders approved the payment of a 2018 dividend of €0.86 per share, with the option of reinvesting 100% of their dividend in new shares. This means that shareholders will receive 100% of the dividend in cash or 100% in new Edenred common shares, at the shareholder’s option. The shares created on reinvestment of the dividend will be issued at a price of €36.58, corresponding to 90% of the average of the opening prices quoted for Edenred shares over the twenty trading days on the Euronext Paris preceding the Annual Shareholders Meeting, less the amount of the dividend and rounded up to the nearest euro cent.
Dividend payment timeline
- Ex-dividend date: May 20, 2019.
- Record date: May 21, 2019.
- Period for exercising the dividend reinvestment option: from May 22, 2019 to the close of business on June 5, 2019. Shareholders that do not exercise their reinvestment option by June 5, 2019 included, will receive their total dividend in cash.
