NLB's General Meeting Confirms 8% Increase in Dividend Payment

In accordance with the provisions set out in the Rules of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange and the relevant laws, the NLB Management Board hereby announce the results of votes cast at the 46th General Meeting of the Shareholders of NLB d.d.:

The 63,89 % of the shareholders with voting rights, who were present at today's 46th General Meeting of NLB d.d., adopted several resolutions proposed by the Management and/or Supervisory Board of NLB d.d. The shareholders confirmed among other things the allocation of distributable profit, acknowledged the NLB Group Annual Report for 2025 and appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers d.o.o. as the auditor of NLB d.d. for the financial years 2027, 2028 and 2029. 

Shareholders adopted the proposal of the NLB Management and Supervisory Board to distribute dividends in the total amount of EUR 138,400,000.00, or EUR 6.92 gross per share, payable on 23 June 2026. The second tranche in the same amount is expected to be submitted for approval to the General Meeting taking place towards the end of this year, subject to no material M&A. With both tranches distributed this year, NLB d.d. intends to pay out a total of 55% of its net profit for 2025, totalling EUR 276.8 million.

This demonstrates NLB's continued commitment to creating strong value for its shareholders. With such level of payouts, NLB ranks among the top dividend payers in the domestic index and across the European banking indices.

Blaž Brodnjak, NLB's CEO:

"Today's confirmation of the dividend once again demonstrates that we deliver on what we promise. We are grateful for the continued trust of our shareholders, and we see this trust as our responsibility to create long‑term, sustainable value. Our strong performance provides a solid foundation for the future, and we are ready for the next chapter, which includes both organic growth and potential selected inorganic opportunities. We believe that selected M&A transactions can accelerate the achievement of our strategic goals. At the same time, even without such transactions, NLB is well on track to deliver on the commitments we have made. In any case, our objective remains clear: to create value for our shareholders and to support NLB's long‑term growth."

Various policies and reports were discussed

At the General Meeting the shareholders confirmed a variety of reports and policies, including the NLB Group Annual Report 2025, the Report of the Supervisory Board of NLB d.d. on the Results of the Examination of the NLB Group Annual Report 2025, the Report on Remuneration for Members of the Management Body of NLB d.d. for Business Year 2025, the Additional Information to the Report on Remuneration for Business Year 2025 on the Basis of SSH's Baselines and the Internal Audit Report for 2025.
