Ferronordic Machines AB gives notice to attend extraordinary general meeting on 2 October 2015
Press Release
Stockholm, 10 September 2015
The shareholders of Ferronordic Machines AB (publ) are invited to attend an extraordinary general meeting to be held at 2 pm (CET) on Friday 2 October 2015 at the company’s office at Hovslagargatan 5B, Stockholm. Registration for the general meeting will begin at 1.30 pm.
The board proposes that the meeting resolve to pay dividends on the company’s preference shares in an amount of SEK 50 per preference share, corresponding to a total dividend payment of SEK 25,000,000. As record date for the dividend payment, the board proposes 23 October 2015. If the meeting resolves in accordance with the proposal, it is expected that the dividend would be paid through Euroclear Sweden AB on 28 October 2015. No dividend shall be paid with regard to ordinary shares.
Given the weak market and the continuously uncertain economic situation in Russia the board is still of the opinion that it would not be prudent to make a resolution now with regard to the payment of dividends on the preference shares in April 2016. If the board later concludes that an additional payment of dividends on the preference shares will be possible, the board will convene another extraordinary general meeting in March/April 2016 in order to pass the required resolutions.
Shareholders who wish to attend the meeting must be recorded in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB latest on 25 September 2015 and notify the company of their intention to attend no later than 5 pm (CET) on 25 September 2015.
The notice is available on the company’s website, www.ferronordic.ru.
