Nabaltec AG held its Annual General Meeting on June 24, 2026, in Amberg, Germany, where shareholders overwhelmingly supported the company's operational direction and corporate strategy. The Management Board and Supervisory Board received broad approval for their profit appropriation proposal, resulting in a dividend distribution of EUR 0.29 per share, amounting to a total of EUR 2.6 million. The remaining distributable profit of EUR 66.6 million will be carried forward to new account, strengthening the company's equity base. The dividend is scheduled for payment on June 29, 2026.
Johannes Heckmann, CEO of Nabaltec AG, expressed satisfaction with the shareholder support, stating, "Once again, we have received strong approval from our shareholders for the direction of Nabaltec AG. Against the backdrop of a challenging market environment – particularly in the chemical industry – this vote of confidence is of great importance." He added that the company is pleased to share its success with shareholders, especially given the more cautious dividend policies observed across the chemicals sector.
In addition to the profit appropriation, shareholders approved the discharge of the Management Board and Supervisory Board, the election of the auditor for the 2026 financial year, and several anticipatory resolutions. These resolutions include authorization to acquire treasury shares, creation of new authorized capital, and the option to issue convertible bonds and/or bonds with warrants, along with the creation of new contingent capital. These measures provide Nabaltec with flexibility to pursue strategic initiatives and strengthen its financial position.
