The relevant documents, including the presentation, resolutions and voting results, will be made available on PostNL’s website in the next few days.
PostNL shares will be quoted ex-dividend on 18 April 2019 and the dividend record date is 23 April 2019. Between 24 April and 8 May 2019, shareholders may, at their discretion, choose dividend payment in shares or in cash, and will receive their dividend in cash if they do not make a choice. Shares paid as stock dividend will be charged to the share premium reserve under distributable reserves, and are exempt from withholding tax in the Netherlands. The conversion ratio will be based on the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of all Euronext Amsterdam-traded PostNL shares on 6, 7 and 8 May 2019. PostNL’s aim is for the value of the stock dividend – based on VWAP and subject to rounding – to be at least equal to that of the cash dividend. There will be no trading in stock dividend rights and the dividend will be payable from 10 May 2019.
