Göttingen, March 25, 2022
At today’s virtual Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting, the shareholders of Sartorius AG granted discharge to the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board and approved the boards’ proposals by a large majority. They passed the resolution to pay dividends of 1.26 euros per preference share and 1.25 euros per ordinary share. The total amount disbursed will be 85.9 million euros. In the previous year, dividends were 0.71 euros per preference share and 0.70 euros per ordinary share.
During the regular election of shareholder representatives to the Supervisory Board, shareholders re-elected Prof. David Raymond Ebsworth, Dr. jur. Daniela Favoccia, Dr. Lothar Kappich, Ms. Ilke Hildegard Panzer, and Prof. Dr. Klaus Rüdiger Trützschler. As Prof. Dr. Thomas Scheper was no longer available for a further term of office, the Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting elected digital expert Frank Riemensperger to the Supervisory Board as a shareholder representative. Riemensperger, who holds a degree in computer science, held senior management positions at the consulting company Accenture for many years. The new Supervisory Board will serve for a term of five years.
