Virtual annual general meeting of HOMAG Group AG

Schopfloch, May 12, 2022. Due to the corona pandemic, the annual general meeting of HOMAG Group AG was held virtually for the third time today. Approximately 91 percent of the share capital was represented. The actions of the Board of Management and the Supervisory Board were approved with a large majority at the annual general meeting.

For the fiscal year 2021, HOMAG Group AG will pay its shareholders a compensation payment of EUR 1.01 per share. The compensation payment results from the domination and profit and loss transfer agreement concluded with the parent company Dürr.

In his speech, CEO Dr. Daniel Schmitt looked back on the successful fiscal year 2021, in which the HOMAG Group achieved a record order intake despite the global supply chain problems. Earnings before special items more than tripled. Following the successful first quarter of 2022 and in view of the high order backlog, Dr. Schmitt is optimistic for 2022: “We aim to continue to grow sales and EBIT before special items, even though challenges have increased in the current environment of political uncertainty, supply chain issues and material price increases.”
