Increased dividend

The Supervisory Board and the Executive Board of SAP have resolved to propose to shareholders a dividend of €2.45 per share for fiscal year 2021. The proposed dividend represents an increase of approximately 32 percent over the previous year. The payment includes a special dividend of €0.50 to mark SAP's 50th anniversary. Subject to shareholder approval and taking into account the treasury shares held as of December 31, 2021, the total distribution to shareholders would amount to approximately €2.89 billion (2020: €2.18 billion).

This corresponds to a payout ratio of 54 percent (2020: -41 percent). Excluding the special dividend, the payout ratio would be around 43 percent. The dividend for fiscal year 2021 will be paid out as of May 23, 2022. Luka Mucic, Chief Financial Officer of SAP, comments on the news: "Our strategy of accelerating the transition to the cloud business is paying off. We want our shareholders to share in this success with an increased dividend."
