About this update from Vidrala Sa
Vidrala raises its dividend by 15%, reflecting the strength of its financial position and confidence in the Group's future performance following its entry into Chile. The company will execute a new share buyback programme for a maximum amount of €33 million, aimed at supporting its shareholder remuneration policy by increasing earnings per share. Llodio, 18 December 2025 - Following last week's announcement of a strategic move with its entry into Chile and progress in the geographical diversification of its business, Vidrala sends a clear message of financial strength and confidence in business prospects by boosting the proposed shareholder remuneration for 2026. Accordingly, the company has approved a cash dividend of €1.2318 gross per share, payable on 13 February 2026. Including the effect of the new shares allocated free of charge after the bonus share issue, this represents a 15% increase compared to the previous year. As an additional and extraordinary measure, the company has decided to execute a new share buyback programme equivalent to 1% of its share capital, amounting to €33 million, which represents an additional 54% on top of the dividend outlay.
