The Dividend Board Resolution is a crucial corporate governance document used when a German company's board of directors decides to distribute profits to shareholders. This formal resolution must comply with the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) and the company's articles of association. The document is typically prepared after the approval of annual financial statements when distributable profits have been determined, or in cases of interim dividends, when interim financial statements support such distribution. The resolution must include specific details about the dividend payment, such as the amount, timing, and method of distribution, while ensuring compliance with German corporate law requirements regarding capital maintenance and shareholder equality. This document forms the legal basis for the company's dividend distribution and is essential for corporate record-keeping and regulatory compliance.
