Sampo Plc ( (GB:0HAG) ) has provided an update.

Sampo Oyj has convened its annual general meeting for 22 April 2026 in Helsinki, allowing shareholders to attend in person, vote in advance and follow the proceedings via live webcast, although remote viewing does not confer formal participation rights. The agenda covers approval of the 2025 financial statements and sustainability assurance report, discharge of liability for the board and CEO, and an advisory vote on the remuneration report.

The board proposes a dividend of EUR 0.36 per share, excluding treasury shares, with the record date set for 24 April 2026 and payment on 5 May 2026 for Finland, while Swedish and Danish payments will follow local practices. Shareholder resolutions are also sought to raise board and committee fees, maintain the board at eight members with one new director, reappoint Deloitte as auditor and sustainability assurer, and authorise the repurchase and cancellation of up to 250 million A-shares, roughly 9.4% of the total, underscoring Sampo’s continued capital return strategy and emphasis on governance and sustainability oversight.
