Dividend policy

Industrivärden’s dividend policy is to pay the shareholders a dividend yield that is higher than the average for listed Swedish stocks. This goal has been achieved every year during the last ten-year period. The dividend should be well-balanced with respect to the goals, scope and risk of operations. The 2011 Annual General Meeting decided on a dividend of SEK 4.00 (3.00) per share, corresponding to a dividend yield of 3.3% and 3.4%, respectively for the Class A and Class C shares.
