Essen, March 27, 2026: The Management Board of secunet Security Networks AG, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, today adopted a realignment of its dividend policy in order to finance future growth more strongly from its own earnings power. The annual dividend proposal of the Management Board and Supervisory Board to the Annual General Meeting will in future be based on the consolidated net income after taxes. At the same time, the payout ratio is to be adjusted to the respective financing requirements and will range between 30% and 50% of consolidated net income. This will enable the Management Board to draw more flexibly on the Group's internal financing capacity to finance further growth.
The new dividend policy is to be applied for the first time to the consolidated net income for the year 2025. Accordingly, a dividend of €2.58 per share (approximately 50% of the Group’s 2025 net income after taxes) is proposed for the next Annual General Meeting. The company's Management Board is convinced that making the dividend amount more flexible in particular will ensure appropriate shareholder participation while at the same time safeguarding a solid capital structure.
