The Board of Directors decides to withdraw the dividend proposal

Due to the prevailing uncertainty caused by COVID-19, the Board of Directors has decided to withdraw the dividend proposal to the Annual General Meeting to be held on March 26. The Group has a strong balance sheet with good liquidity, and significant unutilized credit facilities. The Board of Directors has the ambition, if the circumstances permit, to convene an Extra General Meeting in the autumn to decide on the dividend.

Skanska's Annual General Meeting takes place as previously announced on March 26 at 10 am CET at the Stockholm Waterfront Congress Center, Nils Ericsons Plan 4, Stockholm.
