Dividend

An attractive dividend policy

Solvay’s policy is to propose a dividend increase to its shareholders whenever possible. 

Solvay annual dividend is paid in two installments:

  • an interim dividend, which is typically 40% of the previous year’s total dividend (2023 was an exception, given the partial demerger). The interim dividend is announced with the Third Quarter Results and paid in January.
  • the final dividend is announced, along with our Full Year Results, in late February or early March, and is paid after the yearly Shareholders Meeting, in May.

For over 40 years, the dividend has been stable or has gradually increased1, and has never been reduced.
