The total dividend fund will come to HUF 94.3 billion, taking into account treasury shares, MOL said. 

The board proposed continuing its practice of raising the base dividend by 9% from the previous year, but also proposed sharing free cash flows with shareholders in the form of a 50% top-up. The base dividend of HUF 85 plus the HUF 42.5 top-up adds up to HUF 127.5 per share.

Last year, MOL shareholders approved a HUF 625 per-share dividend from a HUF 58 bln dividend fund. Adjusted for the effect of an 8-for-1 share split last autumn, that dividend would now be worth about HUF 75 per share, MTI noted.
