Klaus Eberhardt, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Dürr AG: “We’re absolutely delighted to report that we succeeded in extending the contract with Ralf W. Dieter by another five years, until the end of 2020. Mr. Dieter has been at the helm of our Company since January 1, 2006. Under his management, Dürr has developed into a highly successful mechanical engineering and plant construction corporation operating with a global reach.”
At a total of € 57.1 million, the dividend has reached a new all-time high if the proposal by our management bodies is accepted at the Annual General Meeting on May 15, 2015. The distribution quota has risen from 36 % to 38 % of the Group’s profit for the year (€ 150.3 million). Ralf W. Dieter, Chairman of the Board of Management at Dürr AG: “In 2014 we succeeded in expanding our profit yet again in our core operations. At the same time we set a milestone in our future development with the acquisition of the HOMAG Group, tapping a new growth market in the process. Our shareholders are able to participate once more in our positive development, not only in terms of a gratifying share price performance but also through a higher dividend.”
