Logitech​ ​Shareholders​ ​Approve​ ​Proposals,​ ​Including​ ​Increased Dividend,​ at ​Annual​ ​General​ ​Meeting

Logitech International (SIX: LOGN) (Nasdaq: LOGI) today announced that during its annual general meeting (AGM) the Company’s shareholders approved a dividend of approximately CHF 0.80 per share* — an increase of approximately 10% compared to the FY 2019 dividend.

Additionally, Logitech’s shareholders elected to the board of directors Deborah Thomas, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Hasbro, Inc., and Riet Cadonau, chairman and CEO of dormakaba Holding AG. Thomas will take up her mandate immediately, and Cadonau will take up his mandate on April 1, 2021. All incumbent nominees to the board were re-elected, and all other proposals at the AGM were approved.

Wendy Becker, Logitech’s chairperson of the board, said: “Last year, Logitech delivered our fifth consecutive year of near double-digit growth or better. This consistently strong performance has permitted a continued increase in our annual dividend. I’m also delighted to welcome Deborah and Riet to our board. Both bring senior leadership and strong international experience to the team, from consumer, technology and services sectors. I look forward to another remarkable year for Logitech.”

Logitech expects the payment date for the dividend to be September 22, 2020. The shares are expected to be traded ex-dividend on the SIX Swiss Exchange and the Nasdaq Global Select Market starting on September 18, 2020.
