Wacker Neuson SE AGM Approves Increased Dividend and Elects New Supervisory Board Member

Wacker Neuson SE held its Annual General Meeting at the hbw Conference Center in Munich, where shareholders overwhelmingly approved all agenda items, including a dividend increase of approximately 17% to EUR 0.70 per eligible share, up from EUR 0.60 in the previous fiscal year. The dividend resolution underscores the group's strategy to provide continuous shareholder compensation and share a significant portion of its profit, as highlighted by Dr. Karl Tragl, Chairman of the Executive Board.

In addition to the dividend, the meeting approved the formal actions of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board for fiscal year 2025, the remuneration report, the election of the auditor for fiscal year 2026, and an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to allow for the issuance of electronic shares. These approvals reflect strong shareholder confidence in the company's governance and strategic direction.

A key event was the election of Christian Rast to the Supervisory Board, succeeding Prof. Dr. Matthias Schüppen, whose term ended with the close of the meeting. Mr. Rast brings proven expertise in accounting and auditing, strengthening the board's financial oversight capabilities. The change in board composition signals a continued focus on robust corporate governance.

The dividend increase is particularly notable given the economic environment, demonstrating Wacker Neuson's financial health and commitment to returning value to shareholders. The company, which employs around 5,800 people and generated revenue of approximately EUR 2.2 billion in fiscal year 2025, operates as a leading manufacturer of light and compact equipment under brands such as Wacker Neuson, Kramer, Weidemann, and Enar. Its shares are listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange's Prime Standard segment and are included in the SDAX index.
