This is in recognition of the strong growth of DBAG's fund investment services and the fee income thus derived. For the truncated 2014/2015 financial year, in which DBAG looked back on 50 years of DBAG and 30 years as a listed company, the Board of Management and the Supervisory Board today also voted to recommend using the profit earned in the past for a distribution, which, in effect, would double the base dividend. In total, a dividend of 1.00 euro per share is slated for distribution. Deutsche Beteiligungs AG will issue the financial results of its truncated 2014/2015 financial year tomorrow, 10 December 2015.
