With the health and safety of the company's employees, shareholders, consumers and partners remaining adidas' number one priority, the company resolved not to hold the AGM. The AGM will be held within the legally required timeframe in 2020, with the exact date to be communicated in due course. This postponement will inevitably delay all resolutions from the AGM, including the resolution on the appropriation of retained earnings, which is a mandatory legal requirement for the payment of the proposed dividend of €3.85 per share.
