Dividends and Share Buybacks

Aker Solutions’ overall objective is to create long-term value for its owners in the form of an increase in the value of the company’s shares over time and/or dividend payments or share buybacks, or a combination of these.

Aker Solutions targets to pay annual dividends of 40-60 percent of adjusted net profit over time. The company's dividend policy is based on an annual evaluation by the board of directors of the company’s financial position and re-investment opportunities based on strict principles for allocation of capital. The dividend policy supports the company in building financial robustness and maintaining a strong balance sheet with adequate liquidity reserves to handle future obligations as well as realizing objectives for strategic development and delivering of shareholder value.

Any dividend proposed by the board of directors will be presented to the annual general meeting for approval. An approved dividend distribution will normally be paid out to shareholders in the month following the general meeting.

Share Buybacks
The company’s general meeting held on April 13, 2023, mandated the Board of Directors to purchase treasury shares up to an aggregate nominal value of NOK 53,154,045 (ten percent of the share capital).

The resolution specified three purposes for utilization:

• Transaction currency in connection with acquisitions, mergers, demergers and other transfers of business
• Sale and/or transfer to employees as part of the company’s share program
• Purchase of treasury shares for the purpose of investment or for subsequent sale or deletion of such shares

The board’s authorization to purchase treasury shares is valid for the period until the date of the annual general meeting in April 2024, however, in no circumstances beyond June 30, 2024. The board of directors currently holds no authorizations to increase the share capital or to resolve dividend distributions.
