Questions & Answers regarding
dividends and taxation
Overview
Why did Daimler decide not to pay a dividend for business year 2009?
In  view of the Group's net loss of €2.6 billion, the Board of Management and the Supervisory Board have decided to pay no dividend for the year 2009. This is solely due to last year's business development and earnings situation and is not related to our expectations for the year 2010. In the coming years, we want our shareholders to participate in appropriate form in Daimler's profits once again.
How much was the dividend in former years and when was the pay-out?
A table with dividend amounts and payment dates is available here.
Until when do I need to purchase shares to be entitled to a dividend?
Shareholders are entitled to a dividend payment according to the number of shares in the Company (isin DE 000 7100000) they hold in their account at the day of the Annual Meeting. A minimum period of holding the shares before or after the Annual Meeting is not required.
