Dividends
Progressive dividend policy and introduction of special dividends as a new, additional instrument
OMV is committed to delivering an attractive and predictable shareholder return through the business cycle. According to its progressive regular dividend policy, OMV aims to increase the regular dividends every year or at least to maintain the level of the respective previous year.
In addition OMV has added special dividends as a new, additional instrument to the existing dividend policy. If the leverage ratio is below 30%, OMV aims to distribute approximately 20-30% of the OMV Group's operating cash flow (including net working capital effects) per year to its shareholders through its regular dividend, as a priority, and additionally, if sufficient funds are available, through the new instrument of a special dividend. In case of a leverage ratio of 30% or higher, OMV’s progressive regular dividend will be maintained, but no special dividend shall be paid.
