BME will submit to the General Shareholders’ Meeting for approval the distribution of a €31 million extraordinary dividend (a gross €0.372 per share).
The distribution of the extraordinary dividend would imply maintaining in 2011 a dividend payment identical to that for 2010.
The said amount adds to the €50 million that will be distributed as a final dividend (a gross €0.6 per share), if it is approved by the General Shareholders’ Meeting, as well as to the dividend against 2011 results paid in September and December of last year. The total dividend distributed by BME would amount to €164 million (€1.972 per share).
