Understanding the 2024 Dividend Payment Process for Amber Grid

Overview of AB Amber Grid's Dividend Payment for 2024
AB Amber Grid, a notable player in the energy sector, has established a clear procedure for distributing dividends to its shareholders. Recently, the company's shareholders engaged in a general meeting to decide on the profit distribution for the year 2024. It was resolved that shareholders would receive a dividend of EUR 0.0599 per share.
Timeline for Dividend Distribution
The planned date to commence these dividend payments is May 26, 2025. Depending on the method of shareholding registration, the dividends will be distributed as follows:
Shareholders Using Financial Brokers
For shareholders whose AB Amber Grid shares are listed through a financial broker or credit institution, the dividend amount will be credited directly to their accounts. This transfer will occur after the necessary withholding taxes are deducted as per Lithuanian law.
Shareholders with Custodial Accounts
Shareholders whose shares are managed by the authorized custodian, AB SEB Bankas, will also receive dividends. The process involves transferring dividends into their SEB Bank accounts or any other bank account specified by the shareholders. Shareholders must submit requests for any changes in their account information to any branch of AB SEB Bankas.
Tax Implications for Dividend Recipients
It's essential for shareholders to understand the taxation associated with dividends:
Natural Persons
Dividends received by natural persons who are residents of Lithuania or foreign countries will face a withholding personal income tax of 15 percent.
Legal Entities
Legal entities, including companies based in Lithuania or foreign jurisdictions, will incur a withholding corporate income tax of 16 percent unless otherwise stipulated by law.
Foreign residents from countries with double taxation avoidance agreements with Lithuania may enjoy reduced tax rates. To take advantage of these provisions, shareholders need to submit the Claim for Reduction or Exemption from the Anticipatory Tax Withheld at Source (form FR0021) to AB Amber Grid alongside a broker’s confirmation by May 19, 2025.
