LEG Immobilien SE: Christoph Beumer elected as new member of the Supervisory Board

This year's Annual General Meeting of LEG Immobilien SE was once again successfully held as a face-to-face meeting in Düsseldorf today. Around 300 participants had accepted the company's invitation; a total of around 75 per cent of the voting capital was represented in the balloting. A total of eight agenda items were put to the vote, and all passed with vast majority.

Under item 2 on the appropriation of profits, around 98 per cent of shareholders voted in favour of a dividend of EUR 2.45 per share. This corresponds to the distribution of 100 per cent of the AFFO and thus the dividend policy adopted in November 2022. This results into an attractive dividend yield of around 2.8 % (based on the closing price on May 22, 2024). The dividend can be claimed either in cash or in shares at the shareholder's discretion.

Under item 6 of the agenda "Resolution on the election of a new member of the Supervisory Board", Christoph Beumer was elected to the Supervisory Board of LEG Immobilien SE by way of an individual vote.
