Annual Meeting of INDUS Shareholders Focuses on Scope for Growth

At the Annual Shareholders' Meeting of INDUS Holding AG, held at Koelnmesse’s Congress Centre North, a significant majority of shareholders endorsed all proposals. Around 54% of the registered share capital was represented. The meeting resumed its physical format this year.

Dr. Johannes Schmidt, Chairman of the Board of Management, highlighted the company's growth potential, focusing on future-critical areas like artificial intelligence. INDUS's AI initiative provides training and development funds for AI projects. In March, GESTALT AUTOMATION, specializing in AI automation solutions, joined the group.

In addition to GESTALT AUTOMATION, INDUS expanded its portfolio with GRIDCOM and COLSON X-Cel, reflecting strong positions in growing markets. INDUS plans further acquisitions, emphasizing the favorable market conditions for such moves. Schmidt also stressed the importance of internationalization for portfolio companies.

The Board proposed a dividend of EUR 1.20 per share, up from EUR 0.80, yielding 5.4%. This was approved along with other key items, including the reappointment of the auditor and amendments to the Articles of Incorporation. INDUS aims to balance regulatory compliance with practical implementation efforts.
