Around €975 million of the dividend will be used to fully settle Vodafone-related financing via EJLSHM Funding Limited, allowing the cancellation of 523 million EJLSHM-held shares and cutting Zegona’s ordinary share count by about 69%, a move that will significantly reshape its capital structure and concentrate ownership among remaining investors.
