Stockholm, Sweden: The Board of Directors of Epiroc AB has decided to propose a second dividend of SEK 1.20 per share for the fiscal year 2019.

Epiroc has a strong financial position and as the economic uncertainty has been reduced, the Board of Directors proposes a second dividend of SEK 1.20 per share. The Board will call for an Extra General Meeting (EGM) on November 27, 2020, to decide on the proposal, with record date December 1, 2020. Including the dividend paid in May, the total dividend during the year will be SEK 2.40 per share totaling MSEK 2 892 (2 523).

The EGM will also decide on a proposal to change the Articles of Association. The change would allow for voting by post and collection of proxy votes already before a general meeting. A notice with all relevant information for the EGM will be provided shortly.
