Dortmund, March 19, 2020: The annual report for the year 2019 of Elmos Semiconductor AG (FSE: ELG) was published today. The preliminary financial figures are confirmed. The document is available at www.elmos.com (here).

Supervisory Board and Management Board intend to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of 0.52 Euro per share, as high as in the previous year.
