Dividends not claimed within five years are time-barred and are paid over to the French State. As a reminder, no dividend was paid in respect of fiscal year 2019. In the context of the Covid-19 pandemic and the introduction of partial unemployment measures, the Board of Directors decided, at its meeting of April 23, 2020 in accordance with market recommendations, not to propose any dividend distribution to the General Shareholders’ Meeting of June 4, 2020. Although the Group strengthened its liquidity in March 2020, the Board of Directors considered that this exceptional decision was in the best interests of the Group and its stakeholders, given the uncertainty as to the impact and duration of the crisis, and the caution required at this time. At its meeting of February 24, 2022, the Board of Directors of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain decided to propose to the General Shareholders’ Meeting of June 2, 2022 a dividend of €1.63 per share.
