Successful first digital Annual General Meeting
The first virtual Annual General Meeting conducted by Wienerberger AG in its
history of over 200 years marked yet another step toward digitalization along
the company's entire value chain. In the current exceptional situation, the
151st Annual General Meeting provided an appropriate framework for successful
interaction with the shareholders.
"As a pure free float company, engaging in continuous and active dialogue with
our shareholders is particularly important for us", says Wienerberger's CEO
Heimo Scheuch, noting that "our first virtual Annual General Meeting made it
possible for all our shareholders to participate in the meeting and exercise
their rights, even in the exceptional situation we currently find ourselves in.
We intend to further intensify our contacts with shareholders in the future."
Pursuing a balanced dividend policy with a long-term orientation, Wienerberger
proposed a dividend of EUR 0.60 per share for the record year 2019. The Annual
General Meeting approved the Managing Board's proposal and set October 30, 2020,
as the payout date. The decision on the dividend and its potential payout is
subject to the reservation of permissibility of dividend distribution under
legal measures taken in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Annual General Meeting authorized the Managing Board to buy back own shares
and sell them while excluding the shareholders' subscription rights. Moreover,
the actions of the Supervisory Board and the Managing Board were approved for
the business year 2019. For the current business year, Deloitte Audit
Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH was elected statutory auditor and Group auditor. The
Annual General Meeting also adopted a new remuneration policy for the Managing
Board and the Supervisory Board, which is in line with international standards.
Wienerberger AG also announces a change in the composition of its Supervisory
Board. Ms. Grégoire Sainte Marie, second Deputy of the Chairman of the
Supervisory Board, resigned from her position on the Supervisory Board,
effective as of the end of the 151st Annual General Meeting, for personal
reasons. The Supervisory Board and the Managing Board thank Ms. Grégoire Sainte
Marie for her successful work and her enormous commitment over many years. The
vacancy will be filled by co-option within the framework of a structured
nomination process. Peter Steiner continues in his position as first Deputy of
Supervisory Board Chairman Peter Johnson.
