The Annual General Meeting will take place on 16 February 2026, at 10:00 a.m., CET.
Based on section 26n, paragraph 1 of the Introductory Act to the German Stock Corporation Act (EGAktG) in conjunction with section 118a AktG, the Management Board, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, has resolved to hold the Annual General Meeting as a virtual event without the physical presence of the shareholders or their proxies (with the exception of proxies appointed by the Company). Apart from the uncertainty surrounding the future Covid-19 pandemic situation, the main factor considered when making this decision was the current energy crisis. The Annual General Meeting will be held at the Company’s offices in Am Campeon 1-15, 85579 Neubiberg, Germany, i.e. the location of the Annual General Meeting within the meaning of section 121, paragraph 3 AktG. The physical attendance of shareholders or their proxies (with the exception of proxies appointed by the Company) at the location of the Annual General Meeting is not permitted.

All shareholders who are recorded in the Company’s stock register and have registered for the Annual General Meeting by no later than the end of 09 February 2023 (CET) are entitled, together with their respective proxies, to exercise shareholder's rights, in particular voting rights, in the Annual General Meeting. The exercise of these rights is based on the shareholding recorded in the stock register on the day of the Annual General Meeting. However, please be aware that for procedural reasons, there is a so-called entry freeze (Technical Record Date) between 10 February 2023 and the day of the Annual General Meeting (both days inclusive) and no entries can be made in the Company’s stock register during that time. Registering for the AGM, however, does not cause shares to be blocked, so shareholders can continue to make use of their shares without restriction after registration and irrespective of the entry freeze. Purchasers of shares for which applications for registration in the stock register are not timely received by the Company may not, however, exercise shareholder's rights, in particular voting rights, in the Annual General Meeting, unless they have obtained a power of attorney or are otherwise authorized to exercise such rights.

Your registration must be received no later than 09 February 2023, midnight (CET). We cannot consider notices of attendance received after that date.

All persons who are recorded in the Company’s stock register by the day of the Annual General Meeting are entitled to exercise shareholder's rights in the Annual General Meeting. If the shares are sold, the seller will possibly be deleted from the stock register by the day of the Annual General Meeting and will therefore no longer be authorized to participate. In this case, if a registration confirmation has already been issued, it becomes invalid.

No. Your entitlement is independent of your participation or voting in the Annual General Meeting. Please note, however, that a dividend can only be paid if a majority of shareholders participating in the Annual General Meeting supports a dividend proposal.

The Supervisory Board and Management Board propose to pay a dividend of EUR 0.32 per qualifying share. The total amount proposed to be distributed to the shareholders amounts to approximately EUR 417 million (the exact amount depends on the number of own shares held by the Company – which do not qualify for a dividend – at the time of the Annual General Meeting).

According to the proposal of the Supervisory Board and Management Board the amount remaining after the dividend payment will be transferred to revenue reserves (Gewinnrücklagen).

Yes, from the dividend for the 2022 fiscal year taxes equal to 26.375% of the dividend amount (25% withholding tax and 5.5% solidarity surcharge thereon) will be withheld. Such withholding tax will not be applied, however, if and to the extent the taxpayer provided a non-filing certificate or an exemption certificate to his/her custodian bank.

Foreign investors also have to check the taxation of the dividend in their country of residence. 

Please note that due to the variety and number of shareholders we cannot provide specific tax advice, but only make general statements about the taxation principles. We kindly request that you contact your tax advisor for specific details.

All Infineon shares that are in your securities account on 16 February 2023, i.e. on the day of the Annual General Meeting that decides upon the proposed dividend, qualify for a dividend.

The decisive accounts are those of Infineon Technologies AG, which have been prepared in accordance with the German Commercial Code (HGB). The balance sheet profit (Bilanzgewinn) shown there is subject to the resolution of the Annual General Meeting.

Provided that the Annual General Meeting on 16 February 2023 decides a dividend, as per the applicable provisions of the German Stock Corporation Act the payment will be effected on 21 February 2023. The ex dividend date will be 17 February 2023.

The dividend will be credited to your bank account on the payment date. You do not have to provide for any specific arrangements.

Please contact your personal/custodian bank.

Normally the individual shareholder’s bank draws up a statement of the dividend paid and informs its customer accordingly. Infineon does not notify the shareholders.
