Having closed 2022 as the most successful year in Wienerberger’s history, the Managing Board of Wienerberger AG proposed a 20% dividend increase over the previous year’s level. Within the framework of its long-term and well-balanced dividend policy, Wienerberger recommended a dividend of € 0.90 per share for the 2022 business year to the 154^th Annual General Meeting. The AGM adopted the proposal and set Friday, May 12, 2023, as the payment date. Moreover, the Annual General Meeting approved the actions of the Supervisory Board and the Managing Board for the 2022 business year and elected Deloitte Audit Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH, Vienna, as the statutory and Group auditor for the 2023 business year. The Annual General Meeting also approved the remuneration report for the 2022 business year.

As of the end of this year’s Annual General Meeting, Oswald Schmid and the two former chairpersons of the Supervisory Board, Regina Prehofer and Peter Johnson, the latter having been a member of the Supervisory Board since 2005, stepped down from the Supervisory Board of Wienerberger AG. In the interest of enhanced efficiency and intensive exchanges among its members, the Supervisory Board, following a recommendation expressed by the Nomination Committee, proposed that the number of capital representatives be reduced from nine to seven. The proposal was adopted by the AGM. Within the framework of the 154^th Annual General Meeting, Katrien Beuls and Effie Konstantine Datson were newly elected to the Supervisory Board, and the mandate of Myriam Meyer, currently serving as Deputy Chairwoman, was prolonged.

“We are happy to welcome Katrien Beuls and Effie Konstantine Datson, two top managers with extensive international experience, on the Supervisory Board. They both have an impressive track record and, given their specific expertise and their respective backgrounds, ideally complement the range of competencies and the diversity of the Supervisory Board.”

Peter Steiner

Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Wienerberger AG
