Amsterdam, the Netherlands, 15 April 2025 - Shareholders approved all resolutions proposed at Airbus SE's (stock exchange symbol: AIR) 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 15 April in Amsterdam.
Resolutions included the renewal of the Board mandate of Executive Member Guillaume Faury, who continues as Airbus Chief Executive Officer. The mandates of Non-Executive Members Catherine Guillouard and Irene Rummelhoff were also renewed.
Dr. Doris Höpke was appointed as a Non-Executive Member, replacing Claudia Nemat whose Board mandate expired at the close of the AGM and did not seek re-election. Dr. Höpke currently acts as an independent advisor and mediator and brings extensive experience of risk management, human resources, law and conflict resolution. She is a member of the Supervisory Board of Mercedes-Benz and previously sat on the Board of Management of reinsurer Munich Re.
Airbus Board Members are subject to (re)appointment every year in blocks of four for three years, in order to ensure a smooth transition of the Board's composition. By proceeding in this manner, the Company avoids the departure of a large number of Board Members at one single AGM, which would result in a loss of experience and integration challenges for the new Members.
Shareholders also approved the proposed payments of a 2024 gross dividend of € 2.00 per share and a gross special dividend of € 1.00 per share.
