targeting gradually increasing dividend

Aspo’s dividend growth is based on positive profitability development with the aim to pay-out annually up to 50% of net profit as dividend. The goal is to gradually increase the amount of dividends, while considering financing needs of growth initiatives with strategic priority.

DIVIDEND FOR 2024

The Board of Directors proposes that a total of EUR 0.19 per share be distributed in dividends for the 2024 financial year and that no dividend be paid for treasury shares held by Aspo Plc. The Board of Directors proposes that the dividend be paid in two instalments.

The first dividend instalment of EUR 0.09 per share is proposed to be paid to shareholders who are registered in the Company’s shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy on the record date of the first dividend instalment, April 29, 2025. The Board of Directors proposes that the payment date for the first dividend instalment be May 7, 2025.

The second dividend instalment of EUR 0.10 per share is proposed to be paid to shareholders who are registered in the Company's shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy on the record date of the second dividend instalment, October 30, 2025. The Board of Directors proposes that the payment date for the second dividend instalment be November 6, 2025.

In addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the Board of Directors to decide, if necessary, on a new record date and payment date for the second dividend instalment, should the rules of Euroclear Finland Oy or statutes applicable to the Finnish book-entry system be amended or other rules binding on the Company so require.
