Calendar and conditions

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regulatory News:

On 14 March 2019, the Board of directors (the “Board”) of Korian (the “Company”) (Paris:KORI) decided to submit to the annual general Meeting (the “Meeting”), which will be held on 6 June 2019, the payment of a dividend of €0.60 per share in respect of the 2018 financial year.

The Board also decided again to submit to the Meeting a resolution in order to offer to each of the shareholders the possibility to choose for a payment of the dividend in newly issued Company shares; the payment in shares would apply to the whole dividend.

The new shares would be issued at a price equal to 95 % of the average of the opening share price for the 20 trading days preceding the date of the Meeting, less the net amount of dividend per share, i.e. €0.60, rounded up to the higher euro cent.

Ex date: 11 June 2019
Record date: 12 June 2019
Period during which the option can be exercised: from 13 June to 27 June 2019 included. Beyond that date, if the option has not been exercised, the dividend will be paid in cash.
Treatment of share fractions: if the amount of dividends for which the option is exercised does not correspond to a round number of shares, the shareholders will receive the rounded-down whole number of shares and the balance in cash.
Payment date: 3 July 2019 (whatever the option chosen).
Admission and date of entitlement to the new shares: the new shares issued as payment for the dividend, should the option be exercised, will be admitted to trading on the NYSE Euronext Paris regulated market. The shares will be subject to all the clauses of the Company’s articles of association and will carry dividend rights from 1 January 2019. As from their issuance, the shares will be fully assimilated to the ordinary shares forming the Company’s share capital.
