Sixt Leasing SE: Annual General Meeting votes for stable dividend and
re-election of Supervisory Board
* Annual General Meeting adopts all proposals on agenda items from
Managing Board and Supervisory Board by large majority
* Shareholders approve dividend of EUR 0.48 per share for financial year
2017 and elect current Supervisory Board members for another term
* Managing Board sees positive impact of strategy programme DRIVE>2021 and
confirms forecast for financial year 2018
Pullach, 20 June 2018 - Sixt Leasing SE, market leader in online sales of
new vehicles and specialist in the management and full-service leasing of
large fleets, held a successful Annual General Meeting yesterday in Munich,
which was attended by more than 150 shareholders. Approximately 72 per cent
of share capital was represented altogether. The shareholders adopted all
the proposals from the Supervisory Board and Managing Board by a large
majority. Items on the agenda included the appropriation of distributable
profits and elections for the Supervisory Board.
Resolution passed to pay another attractive dividend
Shareholders approved the proposal to distribute a dividend of EUR 0.48 per
share for the 2017 financial year, which is in line with the previous year.
This represents a total pay-out of EUR 9.9 million. The dividend ratio is
therefore around 47 per cent of consolidated profit and roughly in the
middle of the target pay-out range of 30 to 60 per cent of consolidated
profit. In terms of the closing price at year-end 2017 this represents a
dividend yield of 2.5 per cent. Sixt Leasing SE is thus continuing its
attractive dividend policy.
Current Supervisory Board members re-elected
Shareholders also elected the current Supervisory Board members Mr Erich
Sixt, Mr Prof. Dr. Marcus Englert, and Mr Dr. Bernd Metzner. Before, they
voted to cancel the right of Sixt SE to delegate one of the three
Supervisory Board members for as long as it holds shares in Sixt Leasing SE.
Following the corresponding changes to the Articles of Association, which
were adopted by a majority of the shareholders at the Annual General
Meeting, all the Supervisory Board members now have to be elected by the
Annual General Meeting.
Positive impact of strategy programme 'DRIVE>2021'
Under the heading 'The future of mobility is digital', Thomas Spiegelhalter,
CEO since
1 January 2018, presented the new strategy programme 'DRIVE>2021' to
shareholders. The acronym stands for digitalisation, risk management,
internationalisation as well as volume and earnings growth until the year
2021. The programme aims to increase the pace of digitalisation, improve the
risk-return profile, drive internationalisation forward and boost the number
of contracts and earnings significantly.
Thomas Spiegelhalter, CEO of Sixt Leasing SE: "We would like to thank our
shareholders sincerely for their high rate of approval for our proposals.
This vote of confidence encourages us to keep swiftly implementing the
activities planned as part of our successfully started strategy programme
DRIVE>2021, especially in our high-potential Online Retail business field.
This will pave the way in 2018 to grow strongly and profitably in the
future. The future of mobility is digital. We intend to profit from it
together."
