Calendar and conditions
Regulatory News:
On 14 March 2018, the Board of directors (the “Board”) of
Korian (Paris:KORI) (the “Company”) decided to submit to the
annual general Meeting (the “Meeting”), which will be held
on 14 June 2018, the payment of a dividend of €0.60 per share in
respect of the 2017 financial year.
The Board also decided again to submit to the Meeting a
resolution in order to offer to each of the shareholders the
possibility to choose for a payment of the dividend in newly issued
Company shares; the payment in shares would apply to the whole
dividend.
The new shares would be issued at a price equal to 95 % of
the average of the closing share price for the 20 trading days
preceding the date of the Meeting, less the net amount of dividend
per share, i.e. €0.60, rounded up to the higher euro cent.
CALENDAR AND CONDITIONS FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE
DIVIDEND
- Record date: 20 June 2018
- Ex date: 21 June 2018
- Period during which the option can
be exercised: from 21 June to 6 July 2018 included. Beyond that
date, if the option has not been exercised, the dividend will be
paid in cash.
- Treatment of share fractions: if
the amount of dividends for which the option is exercised does not
correspond to a round number of shares, the shareholders will
receive the rounded-down whole number of shares and the balance in
cash.
- Payment date: 16 July 2018
(whatever the option chosen).
- Admission and date of entitlement to
the new shares: the new shares issued as payment for the
dividend, should the option be exercised, will be admitted to
trading on the NYSE Euronext Paris regulated market. The shares
will be subject to all the clauses of the Company’s articles of
association and will carry dividend rights from 1 January
2018. Consequently, as from their issuance, the shares will be
fully assimilated to the ordinary shares forming the Company’s
share capital.
This option may be subject to legal restrictions for
shareholders who are not French residents. The latter are invited
to consult their legal counsel with respect to the laws and
regulations applicable in their own country of residence.
