Munich, 20 May 2021 Virtual Annual General Meeting of Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG resolves upon a dividend payment of EUR 0.18 per share for FY20 Today, Telefónica Deutschland successfully held the company's virtual annual general meeting for the financial year 2020 via webcast without the physical presence of shareholders or their proxies due to the ongoing COVID 19 restrictions. Shareholders were able to address their questions to the company in advance of the annual general meeting and pass resolutions on important topics such as the election of the supervisory board and the dividend for the financial year 2020. CEO, Markus Haas, and CFO, Markus Rolle, provided information from the company's headquarters in Munich about a successful start to the company's growth era. The business model is proving resilient while not immune to the global COVID 19 impacts. The company intends to build on this growth momentum in the financial year 2021 and focuses on strategy execution. At the virtual annual general meeting, the shareholders approved a dividend of EUR 0.18 per share for FY20 with 99.7% of the votes of the capital present. This corresponds to a dividend distribution of around EUR 535 million. Stefanie Oeschger and Ernesto Gardelliano were elected as members of the supervisory board with a large majority. The shareholders also voted by a large majority to discharge the members of the management board and the supervisory board for the financial year 2020 as well as to approve the respective remuneration policy for the two bodies. PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH was re-elected as (group) auditor. The annual general meeting also approved new authorised capital. This is purely an anticipatory resolution to maintain the company's financial flexibility; currently there are no specific plans regarding its utilisation. The presence of shareholders at the virtual annual general meeting was around 86%. Further information: Telefónica Deutschland
