Sampo AGM Backs €0.36 Dividend, Major Buyback Mandate and Board Changes

Sampo Plc ( (GB:0HAG) ) just unveiled an update.

Sampo’s annual general meeting approved the 2025 financial statements and confirmed a dividend of €0.36 per share, payable in early May to shareholders registered in Finland, Sweden and Denmark. The meeting also authorised the board to repurchase up to 250 million A shares, equivalent to about 9.4% of outstanding A shares, with all repurchased stock to be cancelled, signalling continued emphasis on capital returns.

Shareholders re-elected seven board members, appointed Andreas Brandstetter as a new director and named Antti Mäkinen as chair and Risto Murto as vice chair, while modestly increasing directors’ annual fees and introducing higher committee compensation to align incentives and promote share ownership. Deloitte Oy was reappointed as auditor and sustainability assurance provider through 2027, and the advisory vote on the remuneration report passed, underscoring broad shareholder support for Sampo’s governance and remuneration framework.
