Dividend Overview

As a result of the strong operational and financial performance in 2021, the company’s financial position as well as Management’s confidence in our long-term growth aspirations, the adidas AG Executive and Supervisory Boards will recommend paying a dividend of € 3.30 per dividend-entitled share to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on May 12, 2022. This represents an increase of 10% compared to the prior-year dividend. The total payout of € 632 million reflects a payout ratio of 42.4% of net income from continuing operations based on the number of shares outstanding at December 31, 2021. This is within the target range of between 30% and 50% of net income from continuing operations as defined in our dividend policy.
