Ahead of the Annual General Meeting (AGM), the Board of Directors has decided to propose a dividend of SEK 0.25 per share for the 2010 financial year. No dividend was paid for the 2009 financial year.
The Board also intends to propose that the AGM authorise the Board, during the period until the next to AGM, to decide on the acquisition and transfer of class B treasury shares. The motive for the authorisation is to continuously adapt the company’s capital structure to the company’s capital requirements and thereby contribute to increased shareholder value, and, when appropriate, to partly or entirely finance acquisitions and other types of strategic investments.
The Annual General Meeting of shareholders in ElektronikGruppen BK AB (publ) will be held at 5:00 p.m. (CET) on Monday, 9 May 2011, at ElektronikGruppen's head office at Grimstagatan 160 in Vällingby, Sweden. The Board’s complete proposals will be presented in the notice to attend the AGM, which will be published in the official Swedish gazette (Post- och Inrikes Tidningar) and on the company’s website, www.egruppen.com. In connection with this, an announcement will be published in Svenska Dagbladet stating notice has been given and providing information about where the shareholders can find the notice.
