Dividend policy
Profits must primarily be reinvested in the business to enable continued business development of the Group and thereby create sales and earnings growth. When assessing the size of the dividend, consideration must therefore first be given to the fact that the Group’s development can take place with financial strength and good freedom of action. Provided that business development so permits, the dividend shall correspond to 30 percent of the profit after tax.
