Vonovia SE: Shareholders Pass Resolution on Dividend of € 1.57 at Annual General Meeting - Vonovia holds virtual Annual General Meeting for the first time - Vonovia once again offers a scrip dividend - Vonovia creates 100 additional trainee positions Bochum, June 30, 2020 - The shareholders of Vonovia SE ("Vonovia") approved all resolutions proposed by the Supervisory Board and Management Board with the required majority at today's Annual General Meeting. They also formally approved the actions of the Supervisory Board (91.83 % of the votes) and the Management Board (97.65 %) for the 2019 fiscal year with a large majority. In order to protect the individuals involved, Vonovia organized a virtual Annual General Meeting for the very first time. The Annual General Meeting was held using a new and creative format. "We see the event as an opportunity to forge ahead with digitalization and exploit the advantages it offers," said Chairman of the Supervisory Board Jürgen Fitschen. Representatives of the Supervisory Board and the Management Board spoke to their shareholders from the studio set up at the corporate headquarters in Bochum. Key stakeholders made statements by video.
"Well Positioned Even for Turbulent Times" The dividend proposed by the Supervisory Board and the Management Board for the 2019 fiscal year found broad support among Vonovia's shareholders. This means that Vonovia will be distributing € 1.57 per share, which corresponds to an increase of 9% compared to the previous year. Shareholders can once again choose a scrip dividend this year instead of a conventional cash dividend. Trust as a Key Foundation 100 Additional Apprenticeships The additional apprenticeships - plant engineer, tiler, electronics technician, painter and gardener - will be available in all Vonovia regions throughout Germany. "We offer prospects for young people," said Rolf Buch during the Annual General Meeting. Young people just starting out in working life have a good chance of being taken on permanently by Vonovia once they have completed their training. The training rate stood at 5% last year, outstripping the average for the DAX companies.
