Moscow - PhosAgro (Moscow Exchange, LSE: PHOR), one of the world's leading vertically integrated phosphate-based fertilizer producers, announces that an Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders ("EGM") has approved the payment of dividends in the amount of RUB 9,324 million, or RUB 72 per share.

PhosAgro CEO and Board of Directors member Andrey Guryev said: "PhosAgro's recently-completed large-scale investment programme under the Company's Strategy to 2020, which was completed ahead of schedule last year, has enabled the Company to generate consistent cash flows that can support considerable dividend payments, finance new investment projects and pay for social responsibility programmes.
