Dividend policy
The board's objective is to propose the distribution of profits to the shareholders to the extent deemed reasonable, taking into account the financial position and possible needs of investment in the business or acquisitions. Dividends have on several occasions been combined with the redemption of shares in order to adjust the capital structure. Since OEM was listed on the OMX stock exchange in 1983, OEM has paid an increasing or unchanged dividend, with the exception of 2009 when it was lowered and the pandemic year 2020 when no dividend was paid.
*Adjusted dividend refers to previous years' dividends, taking into account the effect of splits and redemptions.
