Dividend information
Umicore's policy is to pay whenever possible an annual dividend that is steady or gradually increasing.
On 5 August 2010, the Board of Directors decided to institute an interim dividend payment. The interim dividend will correspond to half of the total dividend paid for the prior year. The difference between the interim dividend and the total dividend for the year (as proposed by the Board and subject to approval by the shareholders) will be paid out after the AGM.
As previously announced on 31 July 2019, the Board of Directors approved a gross interim dividend of € 0.375 per share (ISIN BE0974320526) - i.e. half of the dividend paid in respect of 2018 earnings. This represents a dividend of € 0.2625 net of withholding tax. The interim dividend will be paid out on Tuesday 27 August 2019.
The share will be traded ex coupon as from Friday 23 August 2019. The record date will be Monday 26 August 2019.
The System Paying Agent designated for the payment of the 2017 dividend is:
KBC Bank
Havenlaan / Avenue du Port, 2
1080 Brussels
