In April 2020, the Board of Directors of NORBIT decided to change its proposal for dividend distribution based on the annual accounts for 2019, due to the increased uncertainty and risk arisen from the pandemic. Given the outlook at that time, the Board took a precautious approach to make sure financial flexibility was maintained. Although the uncertainty persists, the Board is comfortable about NORBIT’s ability to manage this risk, also considering the strong financial position.

Therefore, NORBIT’s Board of Directors has, based on the authorization approved by the Annual General Meeting on 4 May 2020, resolved to pay a dividend to NORBIT’s shareholders of NOK 0.30 per share. The dividend is based on the 2019 annual accounts.

The dividend comes in addition to the NOK 0.30 per share dividend paid earlier this year, bringing the total dividend payment to NOK 0.60 per share for the fiscal year 2019.
