Our aim during the strategy periode (2008-2012) is a stable dividend policy which will be maintained by payment of annual dividend equal to around one third of net profit for the year. If conditions so warrant, extraordinary dividends or share buyback programmes may also be issued to a accomodate any desire to adjust NKT's financial gearing.
In 2009, no dividend was paid in the light of the uncertain economic market conditions and low visibility for the Group's businesses.
