**Eurobank Confirms €258.7 Million Dividend Distribution for 2025 Financial Year**
Eurobank, a prominent Greek lender, has officially announced the details of its dividend distribution for the 2025 financial year, following the approval from shareholders during the bank's annual general meeting held on April 28, 2026. The total dividend amount approved by the shareholders is €258.67 million, which translates to a dividend of €0.07123 per share before tax.
The bank clarified that the amount payable per share will increase due to the exclusion of 32,389,605 treasury shares from the dividend distribution. As these shares are not entitled to receive dividends, the gross dividend payable to eligible shareholders will rise to €0.07187 per share.
In accordance with Article 64 of Law 4172/2013, a withholding tax of 5 percent will be deducted from the gross dividend amount. This means that shareholders will ultimately receive a net dividend of €0.06828 per share for the 2025 financial year, barring any special provisions that might apply to certain shareholders, which could offer exemptions or different tax rates.
Eurobank also recalled its previous decision to distribute an interim dividend of €170 million before tax, which was sourced from non-mandatory reserves. This interim payment was made to eligible shareholders on November 12, 2025, in compliance with paragraph 3 of Article 162 of Law 4548/2018.
The bank has set June 10, 2026, as the ex-dividend date. From this date, Eurobank shares traded on both Euronext Athens and the Cyprus Stock Exchange will no longer carry the entitlement to the dividend. The record date for identifying eligible shareholders is scheduled for June 11, 2026. On this date, shareholders who are registered in Eurobank's records within the Dematerialised Securities System (DSS) will be recognized as beneficiaries of the dividend.
Cash dividend payments are expected to commence on June 15, 2026. Payments will be processed through Eurobank S.A., which will serve as the paying bank. The distribution of dividends will be facilitated through the beneficiaries' participants in the Euronext Athens Dematerialised Securities System, including banks and brokerage or securities firms, in accordance with the rules and decisions of Euronext Securities Athens (AthexCSD).
In cases involving legal heirs of deceased shareholders whose securities are held in special accounts managed by AthexCSD, Eurobank has stated that dividend payments will be executed through the bank's branch network once the necessary legal procedures for inheritance have been completed.
Lastly, Eurobank reminded shareholders that any dividends that remain unclaimed for a period of five years will become time-barred and will be transferred in favor of the Greek state. This serves as a reminder for shareholders to ensure their dividend claims are processed in a timely manner to avoid forfeiture.
This announcement marks a significant step for Eurobank as it continues to demonstrate its commitment to returning value to its shareholders while maintaining compliance with local regulations.
