Van Lanschot Kempen announces EGM on capital return proposal

26 Feb 2026 08:00 CET

On 9 April 2026, Van Lanschot Kempen will hold an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) to decide on its proposal to return capital in the amount of €0.80 per Class A ordinary share in issue. This proposal was announced on the day of the release of Van Lanschot Kempen’s 2025 full-year results on 26 February 2026. De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB) has approved the capital return. 

If shareholders agree to the capital return, payment will, in principle, take place in June 2026. This will be charged to the proportion of the share premium reserve available for distribution, and the total share capital in issue will be unchanged. At the end of 2025, the CET1 ratio amounted to 18.2%, according to the “Basel IV fully loaded” definition. The impact of the capital return on the CET1 ratio is approximately 0.7% percentage points, resulting in a pro-forma CET1 ratio of 17.5%, which is in line with Van Lanschot Kempen’s target. 

The capital return proposal and resolutions to amend the Articles of Association to effect the return will be put to a vote at the EGM scheduled to take place in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, on 9 April 2026 at 2.00 pm CEST. The notification, agenda and explanatory notes, and the proposals to amend the Articles of Association may be accessed at Shareholders’ meetings on our website.
