Dividend

The dividend policy of JDE Peet’s intends to preserve the independence of the company, maintain a healthy financial structure and to retain sufficient earnings in order to grow the business both organically and through acquisitions. The ability and intention of the company to declare and pay dividends in the future will mainly depend on its financial position, results of operations, capital requirements, investment prospects, the existence of distributable reserves and available liquidity and such other factors as the Board may deem relevant; and are subject to factors that are beyond the company's control. Subject to the aforementioned limitations, the company intends to provide a stable and increasing dividend per share, while the pace will be determined by the company’s capital allocation priorities.
