Zurich, 20 May 2016
The Board of Directors of Burkhalter Holding Ltd presented very strong figures for the 2015 financial year to the 233 shareholders entitled to vote (= 3 726 200 registered shares or 62.12% of the issued share capital) who attended today's Annual Shareholders' Meeting in Zurich.
The financial success of the Burkhalter Group allowed the Board of Directors to ask the Shareholders' Meeting to approve a dividend of CHF 5.25 per share. The shareholders agreed to this and all other requests. A clear majority also approved the creation of authorised capital of a maximum of 350 000 shares to allow the Group to make more substantial acquisitions in future.
The Burkhalter Group plans to keep its generous dividend policy in place as long as the business continues to perform well.
The serving Board of Directors of Burkhalter Holding Ltd, the chairman of the Board Gaudenz F. Domenig and the auditors KPMG Ltd were re-elected for another term of office of one year, as were the members of the Compensation Committee and the independent proxy.
