SoftwareONE Holding AG, a leading global provider of end-to-end software and cloud technology solutions, today published the agenda and the proposals of the Board of Directors for its upcoming Annual General Meeting, which will be held on 20 May 2021 without the physical presence of shareholders.

At SoftwareONE’s forthcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM), the Board of Directors (BoD) proposes, among other items, the approval of a dividend of CHF 0.30 per share, to be paid from non-Swiss capital contribution reserves. The proposal by the BoD mirrors the company’s solid capital position and strong cash generation in 2020, as well as SoftwareONE’s confidence in the strength of its business model.

The Chairman and the current members of the BoD will stand for re-election for a further term of office of one year. As announced earlier this year, the BoD proposes the election of Isabelle Romy, a proven expert in governance, legal and compliance, as well as Adam Warby, former CEO of Avanade with a strong background in the technology services industry, as new independent members of the Board. They are expected to join the Audit and Nomination and Compensation Committees, respectively.

The invitation and full agenda for the 2021 AGM are available here on SoftwareONE’s website.
