Dividend Policy
In 2025, MBB paid a rising base dividend for the 15th consecutive year. According to a report in Handelsblatt, only 10 of around 600 German listed companies have paid their shareholders a continuously rising dividend for more than 10 years. Only two German companies have increased their dividends for longer than MBB.
Since MBB's 2006 IPO, the company has never reduced its dividend. Only 13 listed companies in Germany have not reduced their dividends over a longer period.
MBB aims to continue paying a rising base dividend in the future and to supplement this with special dividends and share buybacks if business performance is positive.
In addition, MBB has regularly acquired its own shares in recent years as part of share buyback programmes and offers.
Since the IPO, our shareholders have already received over €200 million in dividends and share buybacks.
