Annual General Meeting
Sunrise Annual General Meeting: all agenda items approved
At today’s Annual General Meeting of the shareholders of Sunrise Communications AG at Kongresshaus Zurich, all agenda items were approved in line with the proposals of the Board of Directors. The total number of votes, including the votes represented by the Independent Voting Rights Representative, represented 78.53% of the registered stock.
Dividend of CHF 3.42 per Class A Share and CHF 0.34 per Class B Share
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Sunrise Group and the Annual Financial Statements of Sunrise Communication AG for the financial year 2025 and the Non-Financial Reporting were all approved.
The shareholders additionally approved the proposal of the Board of Directors to distribute a dividend of CHF 3.42 per Class A Share and CHF 0.34 per Class B Share. The dividend will be paid exclusively from reserves from foreign capital contributions and hence treated as a repayment of qualifying additional paid-in capital for Swiss tax purposes. The dividend for the financial year 2025 will therefore not be subject to Swiss withholding tax of 35%.
The members of the Board of Directors and the persons entrusted with management were granted discharge for their activities in the financial year 2025.
The Annual General Meeting approved the Compensation Report 2025 in an advisory vote. Furthermore, it approved the maximum aggregate amount of compensation of the Board of Directors for the term of office from the 2026 Annual General Meeting to the 2027 Annual General Meeting and the maximum aggregate amount of compensation of the Executive Committee for the financial year 2027.
The shareholders also approved the Board of Directors’ proposal to re-elect Anwaltskanzlei Keller AG as the Independent Voting Rights Representative until the completion of the next Annual General Meeting and the re-election of KPMG AG as the Auditors for the financial year 2026.
