Fresenius Medical Care holds virtual General Meeting on August 27, 2020 – dividend proposal unchanged
Fresenius Medical Care, the world’s leading provider of dialysis products and services, will hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on August 27, 2020 as a virtual event. Originally, the AGM was scheduled for May 19, 2020. It had to be postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. As it is currently impossible to predict for how long the restrictions for large public events will be in effect, Fresenius Medical Care will use the option provided by the German legislator to hold a virtual event to safeguard the health of shareholders, employees and service providers.
The proposed dividend by the General Partner and the Supervisory Board remains unchanged at €1.20 per share entitled to dividend.
Shareholders will be provided the possibility to follow the entire AGM on the internet. Fresenius Medical Care will include further details in the AGM invitation that is to be published in the Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger) and on the corporate website in July.
