Dividends
With the Fresenius Financial Framework we aim to generate attractive and predictable dividend yields. In line with our progressive dividend policy, we aim to increase the dividend in line with earnings per share growth (before special items, in constant currency) but at least maintain the dividend at the prior-year's level.
Dividend 2023
The Fresenius Management Board has decided to make use of the compensation and reimbursement payments for German hospitals in the amount of up to €300 million (from the current perspective) provided for by the ‘Energy Relief Package’ (‘Entlastungspaket Energiehilfen’) under the Hospital Financing Act (‘Krankenhausfinanzierungsgesetz’) to cover increased energy costs. This means that Fresenius is subject to the related restrictions imposed by the legislator. Fresenius Management Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting 2024 of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA not to distribute a dividend for the fiscal year 2023.
Notwithstanding the legally required suspension of dividend payments for the fiscal year 2023, Fresenius maintains its dividend policy for the future. Further information on the announcement can be found here.
