Taking into account the positive financial development and a very solid balance sheet structure, SAP's Supervisory Board approved an increased capital distribution in 2020 as proposed by the Executive Board.<\/p>\n

As part of this new program, the company is authorized to carry out share buybacks and\/or distribute a special dividend with a total volume of EUR 1.5 billion until 31 December 2020.<\/p>

\"Fullsize\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The increased capital distribution complements SAP's existing policy of distributing at least 40 percent of profit after tax (IFRS) in the form of the regular dividend.<\/p>\n

SAP's Supervisory Board and Executive Board firmly believe that the strategy of investing in innovation and profitable growth, combined with a policy of consistent capital distributions, will maximize shareholder value in the long term.<\/p>\n

\"Mucic\"<\/a><\/p>\n

SAP board spokespeople Jennifer Morgan and Christian Klein said:<\/p>\n

\"SAP's business process optimization program is resulting in a further increase in our financial performance. We are pleased that SAP can now share this success with its shareholders. <\/em><\/p>\n

Next year's increased capital distribution underscores the great importance SAP places on providing an appropriate return to our shareholders and a disciplined use of our financial resources.\"<\/em><\/p>\n

The Chief Financial Officer of SAP, Luka Mucic, added:<\/p>\n

\"In addition to an attractive regular dividend, share buy-backs and special dividends are important instruments for increasing the value of the company and sharing the success of our shareholders.\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Decisions regarding the timing and instrument of the respective distribution are made by the company, taking into account the market environment, the company's performance and other factors. The distribution of a special dividend requires the approval of the shareholders.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
