Iberdrola raises the interim dividend to EUR 0.18 gross per share
Iberdrola's interim dividend for 2022 will amount to 0.18 euros gross per share, as communicated to the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV). Investors who opt for the cash dividend will receive the corresponding amount on 31 January.
The company once again offers its shareholders three options in this edition of "Iberdrola Flexible Remuneration": to receive the interim dividend in cash - the aforementioned EUR 0.18 gross per share -; to sell their allocation rights on the market; or to obtain new bonus shares in the group free of charge.
This interim dividend for the 2022 financial year will be completed with the final dividend that the company plans to pay in July, if approved by the company's General Shareholders' Meeting.
Shareholders who opt for the option to receive new shares must hold 60 free allotment rights in order to receive a new share in the company.
The three options - to receive the interim dividend in cash, to sell the rights on the market or to receive new Iberdrola shares - can be combined, so that shareholders may choose one of the alternatives or combine them according to their preferences.
The "Iberdrola Flexible Remuneration" system assigns by default the option of receiving new shares, so shareholders who prefer to receive their remuneration in cash must notify their bank between 6 and 19 January.
In order to carry out this new edition of the remuneration system, a capital increase will be carried out with a maximum reference market value of 1,165 million euros.
