Oslo, 19 April 2023 - Smartoptics, a leading provider of optical networking
solutions, today announced that The Board has decided to propose an inaugural
dividend of NOK 0.50 for 2022.
The dividend proposal corresponds to a payment of NOK 48 million (USD 4.58
million, assuming a USD/NOK exchange rate of 10.47) based on the current number
of outstanding shares.
If approved by the annual general meeting 11 May 2023, this will be Smartoptics'
first dividend payment since the public listing in 2021. The Board has made its
recommendation on the back of the solid financial results in 2022 and the
previously communicated positive outlook for 2023.
"It is the Board's view that Smartoptics following several years of strong
growth and proven profitability with consistent positive cash flow over time,
leaves room for dividend payments without reducing the planned growth
trajectory. The Board plans to present a defined dividend policy in connection
with Smartoptics' Q1 2023 result announcement 11 May 2023," said Chairman Thomas
Ramm.
